Tragic Occurrence at Dearing.
ONE MAN SHOT DEAD IN HIS
TRACKS.
ANOTHER MAN SHOT AND HAS HIS
THROAT CUT.
TWO OTHER MEN WOUNDED.
The City, at an early hour yesterday
morning, was excited over the report of a
most tragic occurrence, on Monday after
noon, at Dearing, on the Georgia Railroad,
in which Mr. A. N. Hodo, a former resi
dent of Augusta, and Mr. Ellis Adams, re
siding about a mile from Dearing, lost their
lives, and two others received ugly wounds.
The statements of the affair which have
reached us are numerous and conflicting.
The most reliable account which we have
been able to gather is that furnished us by
a gentleman who came to the city yester
day afternoon to procure a coffin for Mr.
Hodo, which we give, as hurriedly detailed
to us: .
About half-past two o’clock Monday af
ternoon. at the store of A. N. Hodo. con
nected with which was his brother, Jlser
Hodo, and J. B. Lambert, a difticiitJßA
cause of which was not stated,
tween Lambert and Ellis Adams. TheMp
ter drew his knife, which was followed by
the former also drawing his knife and warn
ing Adams not to approach him. At this
juncture Adams drew his pistol, when
Lambert walked into the store and gath
ered a gun, one barrel of which was said to
have been loaded with small shot. As
Lambert was returning with the gun, he.
was intercepted by A. N. Hodo, who In
duced him to give up the gun. In the
meantime the report of a pistol was heard
outside, and Dyer Hodo, a one-legged man,
clerk in the store of his brother, exclaimed
that he was shot. With this, A. N. Hodo
stepped to the door with the gun, before
which EUisand Kiuchen Adams was stand
ing, when Ellis Adams fired upon him
without*effect. Hodo then fired his erun,
with wbat effect not kuown, when another
shot was fired by one or the other of the
Adams brothers, the ball taking effect just
above the left nipple of Hodo, when he fell
and expired Instantly.
Seeing his friend and business associate
thus shot down, Lambert immediately left
the store and proceeded to the house of
Mr. James Harris, where he procured a
gun and returned to the scene of conflict.
As lie advanced upon the brothers Adams
they were each firing, a shot by one of
them wounding him in the lip. Lambert
continued to advance, when the brothers
becoming separated, lie followed Ellis
Adams, whom lie fired upon, a few hun
dred yards from the store, and it is sup
posed shot him down, is a party who went
in the direction a few minutes after the
discharge of his gun, found Adams wound
ed and stretched upon the grouud in amt
apparently dying condition. In the excite
ment of the occasion, Adams was left in
the condition in which he was found. A
ishorfc time after, he was visited again,
when it was found that some unknown
person, to hasten the work of death, had
plunged a dagger three sevenl times into
iiis throat, and that he was quite dead.
His body was then taken up and seut to
his residence, about a mile from Dearing,
no inquest having been held.
The whereabouts ofKineheu Adams hive
not yet been developed, and it is presumed
that he has left the neighborhood.
The young man, A. N. Hoflo, who met
such a tragic death, is represented as hav
ing been of excellent character, and most
highly esteemed for his sobriety and kin
dred virtues, which had endeared him to a
large circle of Mends both In Columbia
county and this city.
No arrests, are reported. The wound of
Lambert is not regarded serious.
Dyer Hodo was severely wounded in the
side, and while his injuries are not regard
ed as necessarily fatal, he is lying in quite
a critical condition.
A Negro Killed by an Atlanta
Policeman. —The Era reports that in At
lanta, late last Friday evening, policeman
Couch and Holtzclaw attempted to arrest
Ross Moore, a colored man who had escap
ed from the chain gang. Moore fled, into
McPherson Barracks and under one of the
buildings. He was pursued by the police
men and stoutly resisted being arrested
With a billet of wood he struck Holtzclaw,
badly injuring his left arm, also hurt Couch
about the face, but not seriously. During
the melee Couch fired his pistol at Moore,
and unfortunately the shot passed through
his heart, killing him instantly. Couch
was brought before Justices Smith and
Spencer yesterday for an investigation of
the case. The investigation has not yet
been concluded.
Medical Student Shot in Columbia
County. —lt was reported here yesterday,
that on Monday night Mr. Lucius Adkins,
i student in the Medical College in this
city from Columbia county, was shot and
dangerously wounded in his left arm and
breast, within about six miles of Dearing.
One account represents that Mr. Adkins
had a personal difficulty with some person,
(name not given) in which he shot and mor
tally wounded Ills antagonist, and while en
deavoring to make his escape, was pur
sued by friends of the wounded man and
shot. Another is, that three mounted men
attacked him on the road and shot him
without warning, and that himself and a
negro who brought the intelligence to the
city recognized the man by whom he was
shot. The brother of Mr. Adkins was sum
moned from this city yesterday morning,
to visit his wounded brother.

No personal injuries resulted, and but email
damage to the trains. The down passen
ger train due here at 3:45 yesterday after
noon was detained by the accident, not

o’clock. ; , ,
River News. —The river continued to
rise during Monday night and yesterday
morning until 11 o’clocf, when it reached
its greatest height—22 feet. It then main
tained a stand until the afternoon, when it
commenced falling, and at 5 o’clock regis
tered 21 feet 11 inches at the bridge.
The steamers Swan, San Antonio and
Katie left for Savannah yesterday morning.
Significant.— The negroes continue to
leave Virginia. In Halifax county the
black vote has been reduced five hundred.
Dr. I. M. Wise, editor of the Israelite, at
thus sketches the impressions received
while among us;
Augusta is a handsome city, with wide
and well shaded streets. It has consider
able trade and several factories. There is
left an unmistakable appearance of wealth,
enterprise and comfort, undisturbed by the
late war, as the armies had not come this
way. The climate is delightful in this sea
son of the year. An Italian sky and the
luxuriant evergreens of Southern Spain
charm the eyes. The magnolia reaches
here its perfection in size aud foliage. I
walked over the splendid bnrial grounds
near the city, and could not help noticing
the marked difference in the pale, dwarfish
and sickly shrubbery of the Northern gar
dens, parks and ornamental yards, and the
healthy offspring of unabused nature,
breathing a mild and genial atmosphere,
and cheered by the enlivening rays of an
amicable orb. Plants are no human im
ings. They can not withstand the influ
ences of a rough climate as we do with our
thousand and one artificial means. They
suffer in the foreign climate and thrive tas
tily in their own. Man moves in two at
mospheres, the physical and spiritual. He
finds in the latter the means to vanquish
the hostility of the former. Nevertheless,
man was not born to shiver In the regions
of ice and snow. The best treasures of the
human family were amassed in the happiest
clime, in Greece and Italy, Egypt and Pal
estine, Persia and India. Inclement re
gions forced man to invent, the congenial
atmosphere gave him freedom to feel and
think, to sing and teach. Religion, poetry,
philosophy, and the fine arts are the chil
dren of the South; mechanics and natural
sciences, the inventions and the factories
are the offspring of the North. Freedom
gave birth to the former, necessity to the
latter. These were some of my reflections
in contemplating the marked difference in
the same shrubberies North aud South.
Men do not differ much in a country with
so many various means of communication,
so numerous vehicles of rapid transporta
tion, so restless a spirit of the people, and
so brief a history. Southern and Northern
men are so nearly alike as those of two
States in the North, say Indiana and Ohio.
The same language and roast beef, red
houses and carpeted rooms, mixed com
plexions from all European shades ; there
is nothing strikingly and characteristically
particular in the people North aud South.
The yteculiarities are insignificant, and
may be traced back to causes not climati
cal.
Augusta is a fair specimen of an old
Southern city, pleasantly located on i large
I plain. Convenient houses, with surround
ing yards set with shrubbery, old fashioned
court-house in the square with tall trees,
business streets with many small stores
and broad side walks, and people march
ing slowly anil gravely along, mark the
character of the old aristocratic home.
Down near the Samunah river, navigable
only a few monwftof the year, there are
the cotton now con
siderable life aj^^^HK^owitig up its
of the crop of
1809.
Here 1 mill. I
have my criti
ct'ie
held out, andWWWßpUwve been hired,
admired and save made people tired more
than once; I havebeen expected, respected
and suspected, and sorts of things.
But hash, what you think of that? hash
has never before been made out of me.
Hash, say hash, one of the craft made hash
of me, and next morning brought me out
in his cola nan headed local hash. O
wickedness, thy uame is editor ! Aside of
making hash of a poor stranger, the Au
gusta press has done admirably well in the
premises, in describing the raying of the
corner stone, etc.; but hash, may the Lord
forgive the wicked man and restore him to
mercy, as he saved me from out of the hash
dish.
This city had Hebrew inhabitants before
the American independence, as an officially
recorded deed proves. The daughters of
that family still live here. It had a con
gregation for fifteen to twenty years, who
met for divine worship in a hired room, and
possessed part of the city burial grounds,
for the use of the congregation. Os late,
however, after the close of the war, the
congregation elected a minister, Rev. Mr.
Fisher, and after him,' Rev. Mr. Blum, who
officiates there now. Judge Samuel Levy,
Ordinary of the county, was elected Presi
dent, and Mr. Jacobs Secretary. The con
gregation resolved to build anew temple,
bought a flue lot in the heart of the city,
and began to build. Theo. Abraham, Esq.,
of Charleston, K. C., made plan and specill
cation, and superintends tiie work.
The laying of the corner stone has al
ready been described in our columns. It
was, and has since then found its wav
through the American press to England,
France and Germany. J must add that the
ladies also took a prominent part in th •
festive proceedings. The ladies of the co t
gregation conduct the religion* school wit'i
a zeal and circumspection highly honora
ble to the geuerous hear; and pious senti
ments of the daughter of Zon The young
pupils of both sexes, under the charge o ! ‘
tne ladies, took a prominent part in the
procession. The affair was highly satisfac
tory to all parties and honorable to the con
gregation. The citizens, generally, seemed
to be niuch interested in th o affair, and the
press gave it full attention.
Among the most pleasant acquaintances
which I made in the city, there is also one
lady, who, being a favorite daughter of the
muses, had been well known to me by her
poetical contributions to this journal, al
though I had not the pleasure of a personal
acquaintance. The musesareso whimsical
and capricious in our days, that they
converse with but a few chosen favorites,
and those few are of peculiar interest to
the admirer of Olympian messages. I was
introduced to Mrs. R. A. Levy, well known
to the reader by her splendid poems.
In the midst of a nice family,, she is not
only the favorite of the muses, but, also,
the wife and the mother, beloved, respected
by a large circle of friends, and Happy by
the happiness around her. Leaving the
house, I called up in my mind all the Adas,
Minnas, Hannahs, Claras, altogether with
the Nathans, Maxes, Hermans, and the rest
of the poetical souls whose personal ac
quaintance-I had made in former days, and
thought they are happy creatures who dine
with the gods, ride with the muses through
the realms of phantasy, and have that pa
radise within themselves which so many
seek in vain in this cold selfish world.
Asa peculiar item, it may be set down,
that, in this county, one Israelite, Judge
Levy, holds the responsible position of Or
dinary, which is something equal to our
Auditor’s office, and another Israelite, also
Mr. Levy, holds the office of sheriff, both
to the utmost satisfaction of the commu
nity.
Contrary to my intention I stopped in
this pleasant town from Wednesday to Sun
day morning. I here made a number of
notices which I must keep for my review
on the social and political condition of
these States. So much, however, must be
said here, that rebellion, secession, slavery
and fire-eating are played out in this part
of the country. I heard only one man brag
he would fight the rebellion over, if neces
sary, and he was a Northern man who, I
was informed, never smelt-gunpowder. On
the other hand I conversed with soldiers
of the late Confederacy, who had passed
the ordeal of the whole war. They main
tain there can be no curse invented by
Satan worse than civil war which, they
hoped, would never again fall to our lot. I
heard men of Southern birth in Georgia
and South Carolina t peaking as patriotic
and sensible as any “ Most Humble Ser
vant of the Sovereign People,” making a
terrible noise on Spread Eagle and Star
Spangled Banner in the halls of Congress,
and telling his constituents how he would
die for his country in case he could not
help otherwise. But I leave all those things
to some other day, and want my readers to
know now, that I remember Augusta
among my most pleasant reminiscences.

and 1 could not tell correctly until I got

The 80LUBLE PACIFIC GUANO more than
doubled the yield of Cotton on land unmanured

I planted ten acres last year without manure,
and made three (3) hales of Cotton ; planted
the same ten (10) acres this year, manured with
the one ton of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO,
and made seven (7) bales, averaging over 400 lbs.
I have been a Cotton Planter for thirty years,
and all the time—except this year—making
