Whereas, on certain boughs and sprays, Vow divers birds arc heard to sing, \ M ,| mindrv (lowers their heads upraise ; Hail to the earning on of Spring! Tlic songs of those said birds arouse The memory of our youthful hours, ,\s green as those said sprays and (toughs, As fresh and sweet as those said flowers. 'l'iie birds aforesaid—happy pairs— i/ove’mid the aforesaid boughs, enshrines in freehold nest; themselves, their heirs, Admininistrators and assigns. (ili! busiest term of Cupid’s Court, Where tender plaintiffs action bring— Season of frolic and of sport, Hail, as aforesaid, coming Spring! The Soldier’s Crave. Tread lightly—’tis a soldier's grave, A lonely, mossy mound — And yet, to hearts like mine and thine, It should lie-holy ground, l or him no reveille shall beat, When morning bright shall come ; for him at night no tattoo rolls I Ui thunder from the drum. No costly marble marks the place, Recording deeds of fame, Jiut rudely on the bending tree, Is carved the soldier’s name. A name—not dear to us—but ah ! There may be lips that breathe That name as sacredly and loW As prayers at dewy eve. There may ite brows that wear for him The mourning cypress vine, And hearts that make this lonely grave A holy pilgrim shrine. There may bo eyes that joyed to gaze With love into his own, Now keeping midnight vigils long, With silent grief alone. There may be hands now clasped in prayer, This soldier’s hand lias pressed, And cheeks washed pale by sorrow's tear, His own cold cheek caressed. Tread lightly—for a man bequeathed, lire laid beneath this sod, His ashes to his native land, His gallant soul to <>od.' A Woman’s (Question, nr ADELAIDE A. I‘ROfTOR. Before I trust my fato to thee. Or place my hand in thine; Before J let thy future give Color and form to mine; Before I peril all for thee, (Question thy soul to-night for me. I break all slighter bonds, nor feel A shadow of regret; Is there one link within the fast That holds thy spirityetf Or is thy laith as clear and free Am that which I can pledge to thee? Does there within thy dimmest dreams A possible future shine, Wherein ttiy lifeoould henceforth breathe Untouched, unshared by mien? If so, at any pain or cost, o, tell me, before all is lost! Look deeper still! If thou can'stfeel, Within thy inmost soul, . That thou liastkepta portion back, While I have staked the whole; Let no false pity spare the blow, But in true mercy tell me so. Is there within thy heart a need That mine cannot fulfill? One chord that any other hand Could better wake or still ? Speak how—lest at some future day My whole life witlior and decay! Lives there within thy nature hid The demon spirit Change, Shedding a passing glory still On all things new and strango? it may not lie thy fault alone — But shield my heart against thy own! Could’stthou withdraw thy hand ono day, And answer to my claim, That fate, and that to-day’s mistake— Not thou—had been to blame? Some soothe their conscience Urns; but thou, <), surely, thou wilt warn mo now! Nay, answer not—T dare not hoar! The words would come too late; Yet, i would spare thee all remorse— Nq comfort tlieo my fato ! Whatever on my iieart would fall— Kemomber, I would risk it all! Mary’s lice. BY JAMES NACK. As Mary, with her lip of roses, Was tripping o’er the flow'ry mead, A foolish little Bee supposes The rosy lip, a rose indeed; And ho, astonished at the bliss, He steals the honey of her kiss. IJo wantons tliore a moment, lightly— lie sports away on careless wings— But, all, why swells that wound unsightly? The rascal! he has lell a sting! She runs to me, with weeping eyes— . Sweet images of April skios! “ Bo this,” said I, “ to heedless misses, A warning they should bear in mind; for oft a lover steals their kisses, Then (lies and leaves a sting behind,” “Tills may be wisdom, to be sure,” Said Alary; “ but 1 want a cure,” What could I do? to ease the swelling My lips and hors delighted meet; And', Irusl me, from that lovely dwelling 1 found the very poison sweet! fond boy ! unconscious of its smart, I sucked tlie poison to my heart! Friendship. nv n. w. a. Is “friendship” but an empty name, A charm that lulls to sleep, A wish that follows wealth and fame, And leaves the wretch to weep ? There’s friendship of a better kind, And not from interest springing, But from a pure and noble mind, • To worth aucl gooduoss clinging. It hinds u's bv attachments strong, Is pure and virtuous ever ; It would not place us in the wrong, And cast reproaches never. True friendship never wears disguise, Its face is never double, And with a friend can sympathise, When lie is found in trouble. When on the road to wealth and fame, it ready is to cheer me ; When malice does assail my name, It does not turn to leer nvi) ; My faults it does not magnify ; Nor pompously parading, Them in view of stranger's eyes, That th6y may seem degrading ; Hut rather shows them to my face, That they may becorrected— Presents them in the proper place, That 1 may lie protected. Sucli friendship, then, a value boars ; from seltishness 'tis free ; Robes of deceit it never wears; Much friendship’s mine for thee. Valuable Invention.—A correspond ent at Union Point sends us tlio following communication: h'llitors < 'hronicle it Sentinel :—The steam mills, owned by Mr. .1. 11. Hart, at Union I'oint, tla., are capable of grinding sixty five bushels of corn-meal every hour. This immense amount of work is accomplished by an invention of Mr. N. W. Wortham, the miller in charge. The same machinery has been in use for the last six years, anil the largest amount of corn ever ground was twenty (110) bushels per hour. The runners are four and one-half (4f) feet in diameter, the engine thirty-horse power, and carries forty-live pounds of steam in the boiler. This improved dress upon the runners has been in use for the past three months. Hundreds of persons have visit mi the mills, and can testify to these facts. Mr. Wortham has taken the necessary steps to secure letters patent upon this in vention. No doubt lie will reap a rich harvest from this wonderful improve ment. V IOTA.

James Shuter, Superintendent, Memphis, Tennessee. R. B. Bullock, Superintendent, Augusta, Ga. A. B. Small, Superintendent, New Orleans, La. A Larue \\ heat Crop.—The accounts received by our exchanges from almost e\ ei v section of Maryland, Virginia and - orvh t arolina, speak of the prospect of a argt i top of wheat. A Louisville paper sav. not only in Ohio and Kentucky, but m I ennessoo also, the wheat crop is' more promise' * S usually seen, and iTI“ f, uudant The Illinois State Journal learns that wheat in Sanaa “:riLrr,ur ,oot - ,iJ ‘- >■>■«. rJ; USSoSS other cereal crops in Tex.is, of which an unusual large breadth has been pUimd, are looking splemhly, and the Lone star planters anticipate the biggest harvest they ever had. The Military Power op France—\ French General maintains, in a pamphlet just printed in Paris, that France can place five separate armies, of one hundred thousand men each, in the field ; that her war i>ower is of amazing proportions, and that it would require a European coalition of ten Powers, furnishing one hundred thousand men each, to conquer her.

Henry County.— The Griffin Herald of the 2lst says: Henry Superior Court adjourned on Friday, after a session of five days. A number of important cases were tried, among them Hester, Hilde brand, Ferguson, and Bryant, for the murder of Dave, a freedman, sometime in June last. After a patient hearing, the defendants wore acquitted, all of them having clearly proved an alibi. Later about tiie Selma Bank.—We learn that the Government deposits in the Selma National Bank amounted to about §30,000, and on tiie first day of April instant, the assets of the bank were:— notes anil bills discounted §207,718 22; real estate, Ac., §14,17)2 02; due from banks anil bankers, §56,516 0->; bonds §200,000; cash §157,530 12; other items; say, §12,000. Audits liabilities were: capital, §100,000; circulation §84,975; deposit, §374,070 30; surplus fund §4,788 92; dividends unpaid §5,000; duo banks §9,008 13; profit and loss §33,100 37. The depositors in the bank are the heaviest losers. They will barely receive one-third of the amount deposited. Fearful Tragedy.—The brief particu lars of the fearful tragedy at the Race Course Monday night were furnished this office at a late hour, after the editors had gone home, and were written out by a gentleman unacquainted with either of the unfortunate parties to this, sad affair. Never have we been called on to chronicle a more melancholy all'air. It appears that a pic-nic came oil' at the Race Course Monday, at which a number'of per sons were in attendance. Duringthe after noon it appears that Mr. Jerry Reed and Mr. Henry Meisler, a son of Mr. P. A. R, Meister, engaged in a friendly test of strength, which afterward led to harsh words. For the time-being the parties wore separated, but came together later in tlio evening, when the quarrel was re sumed. Not wishing to do injustice to either the living or the dead, we refrain from giving the different versions of the succeeding portion of this melancholy alfair, simply stating that Mr. Reed is re ported to have fired a pistol, killing Mr. William Meintzer almost instantly. Mr. Chris. Meintzer, the brother of the de ceased, who was standing behind the bar, then seized a shot-gun and fired a load of buckshot, or slugs, into tiie stomach of Mr. Reed. Tiie latter, after being shot, made his way to tiie house of Mr. I)oas, a quarter of a mile from the Track, from whence lie was removed to his residence on Broad street, where he died at 10 o’clock on Tuesday morning. Tiie Coroner! s Jury rendered a verdict that the deceased came to his death from a wound inflicted by a gun in the bands of C. Meintzer. Very few men were lie tier known in this community than Mr. Jerry Reed, lie was a fust friend and a good citizen, admired for his many excellent traits of character. Asa magistrate for a number of years, and a member of the City Council in 1865 aud 'O6, the deceased discharged his duties faithfully and acceptably to the public. Ho leaves a wife, two children, and a brother and sister, with a very large circle of friends, to mourn his untimely end. How true it is that, “in the midst of life we are in death.” Mr. Reed was in our office at two o’clock Monday, in the enjoyment of good health. Only a few hours later his earthly existence termi nated. The other victim in this double murder is William Meintzer, who was an inoffen sive, sober, and industrious young nnm. lie served his apprenticeship in the car riage repository of Messrs. Wyman A May. Up to within the last four months he continued in their employ, which he left to go North. He had only returned a few weeks. While with Messrs, Wyman if May, the deceased was employed as a foreman, and discharged his duty with fidelity, lie leaves a widowed mother, brothers, sisters, and many friends to la ment his death. Both were worthy men, having not the slightest ill-feeling or enmity toward each other. The tragedy has east a gloom over this community, which deplores the loss of two of her humble but most worthy citizens. Mexican Republican Loan. —The loan of thirty millions to the Mexican Re public, as represented by Juarez, which was advertised in this country some time ago, promises to prove an unprofitable invest ment for those who were induced to pur chase the bonds by the large discount and high rate of interest offered. The semi annual interest due on the Ist instant has not been paid by the agents in New York, their plea being that they have no funds to the credit of the Republic of Mexico. Florida Lands.— The Trustees of the Internal Improvement Board have reduced the price of lands subject to their control. The Swamp Linds can now be entered at fifty cents an acre, and the Internal Im provement Lands at the appraised price. These latter were selected from among the best lands in the State not subject to over flow and are found in almost every county, and in the vicinity of railroads. More of the Selma Bank Robbery. --The Selma Daily limes has the follow ing in regard to the First National Bank affair: We learn that a public exposi of theaffairs of this institution will soon be given by the investigation committee ; consequently we will refrain from indulging our own fancy, or the fancy of others, by publishing the thousand and one rumors afloat on the streets yesterday and the day before, simply for the purpose of filling up a column. \\ e will, however, arrive pretty near at the truth, when we state that the defaeit was caused by unfortunate specula tions indulged in for some time past, and not by actual robbery. This transaction has given a heavy, though momentary, shock to the financial prosperity of our city; and Selma, the “Phoenix,’' will re cover from this blow as triumphantly as she has repeatedly done from disasters of greater magnitude than the one we chronicle.

Place yourself in the brightest city of the world on its brightest Monday morn ing. I\ inter, long and stormy, has rained its last. An April without showers lifts every gauze from the sun, so that he lights up the. broad boulevards, aud the fresh green river Seine, and shows every current setting for the Champ de. Mars. When i you climb to your house-top to follow the great eternal caravans of men and wains and banners, you see aroundyouthe city of i Paris, the home of two millions of people, floating over the undulations of a pleasant ! plain, through the middle of which, lengthwise, curves a stream as clear as Croton Lake, no wider than the Passaic, I and, which, inits beautiful inutility, winds ! through 500 miles of France, without a ; tide or sail. Os the two unequal parts in ; which it bisects Paris, the greater is the Northern, where you stand, set against an amphitheatre of hills, populous to their summits, and bounded in the vast level tract, near to the river, by two proud monuments, three miles apart. The one j is the arch of Triumph, to commemorate ; the glory of the original Bonaparte, and built by him to honor that one of his wives he imported to hear his children; the other is the shaft raised by the Republican people on the site of the Bas tile, when they had driven the last licen tious and bloody Bourbon from the capital. Halfway between these monuments, and . inline with them, in the geometrical cen tre of the city, lies the mighty cluster of i palaces, whose varying tenantry have made the history of modern Europe. Over the oldest of them to-day a tri-color flag is flying to show that the most recent lessee of the Tuileries is at home. It is in the central dome or pavilion of this huge | building that Louis Napoleon may be found, and if we ascend thither we may I see him, thus early, looking across the ; wood and flower garden before the palace, ;to a vast boiler-like structure, that, at a j mile distant, coils in the midst of a flat, j low-lying plain in the suburbs of Paris. The Seine, beneath him, reaches down to it with frequent bridges like a long bending ladder; it is upon the inferior side of the stream, and between it and the great Arch of Triumph, the opposite river bank is bold and high table-land, vacantly and suburb j anly furnished. This huge boiler, as it | seems, is the crowning show of this j crowned European Barnuin, the latest of his surprises, his bid to industry to appease uneasy history. AN EXHIBITION OF THE FRENCH EMPEROR. Now, make a real structure 180,000 yards square ; set it in a park three times greater; build in the park a hundred pleasure houses ; assemble 16,000- artists and mechanics; induce 30,000 domestics to bring their utensils and help you finish it; then say to mankind in its millions ; “Come up to iny astute hospitality. lam the Prince of Peace, that never made a mistake, and the favorite nephew of my Uncle!” This was the situation of the Emperor and his great exhibition to-day. THE VISITORS. Meantime the splendid city was filling up with the curious and fortunate of every land. Turks, Persians and Egyptians were common in the broad, gay streets. At the two vast hotels, every garret and attic was tenanted by Russians and Americans. The Chinese pigtail lay in every perspective, and sunburnt Peruvians came vis-a-vis , at every turn, to straight and polished Arabs. The uttermost parts of the earth sent their idlers to Paris, and all of them looked as if no Paradise besides were so goodly for the idler. * view from trocadero hill. The Trocadero hill is named for a fort at Cadiz that the French captured some fifty years ago. It stands on the fashion able side of the Seine, and slopes down to the river, over which a bridge called the Pont de Jena , named after Bonaparte’s great victory over Prussia, goes directly by three arches to the great portal of the Exhibition. A year ago this hill was an irregular bluff, muddy and windy, eaten up with its own accumulating taxes, and al most untenanted. Thousands of workmen, laboring conjointly with a temporary steam railway, have reduced it to gentle ter races, and led over it, in air line from the Arch of Triumph to the Bridge of Jena, a paved avenue, 200 feet broad, called the Avenue of the King of Rome, after Bona parte’s only son. A few weeks will make it wavy with green grass, crown it with a martial statue, and afford the noblest view of the great structure in point that any part of Paris can give. The perfectly level plain of the Champ de Mars , a year ago a hard parade ground, has been transformed into a wonderful fail ground, out of the midst of which arises an almost circular edifice of iron and glass, in shape like a vast boiler of concentric rings, pierced transversely by fifty avenues which radiate from a garden at the centre, where four huge fountains fling perpetual crystal. Under the awnings of this garden there are places for rest, and two of the broadest streets bisect at right angles, while the two circular galleries immediately west of it are wholly filled with painting and statuary. The outer rings are each devoted to some grand department of manu factures, and the nations are so arranged in segments proportionate to the quantity of their goods that the transverse streets divide them from each other. Thus, a visitor interested in silk, woolen and cotton fabrics lias but to keep one circular route continuously to pass in order the wares in that speciality of every existing nation. Without, the greatest circle of them all, next to the park, the restaurant of each nation lies, its food confined to the dishes, and its liquors to those beverages which are current at home; while the large park, encompassing the whole, is taken up with the characteristic buildings of particular lands, and experimental structures apper taining to the arts, sciences, and amuse ments; the borders of the Champ de Mars on the extreme outer rectangle, arc lined with large warehouses where great pieces of machinery are exposed; and the gates or turnstiles giving admission to the whole, are placed at intervals between these ware houses or annexes. The classification, both as |o Palace and grounds, extends to the five continents, and the Monroe Doc trine being scrupulously respected, we shall find the thirteen States arrayed with Mexico, Peru and Patagonia, while Great Britain and France divide about half the world between them. You must consider, before you look down from this hill of the Trocaaero upon the Exhibition, that it is meant to be a com plete epitome of the world, performing within its grounds all the functions of ail races—sleeping only excepted. The steam that drives the engines, the folly that re lieves toil, the drinking, eating, and wor shipping of every species of man must be manufactured and warehoused here. You see, out of the infinite number of towers and roofs that at first confuses you, abroad vestibule, wide as Broadway, 800 feet in length, opening straight from the bridge of Jena to the Palace. This is canopied with green vellum, spangled with golden bees, the emblems of the Bonapartes, and every foot of it surmounted with the flag- of an independent nation. Flowers and statues line it oneitherside; the Imperial standards of tricolors, ba nderolles, and oriflammes are flung from two great gonfalon masts at the portal; on the roof of the Palace, climbing through the sky as if the tinted clouds had descended towreatheit, all the colors of each nation wave; and in the angle between the long vestibule and the deep curve of the Palace, the broad, white ermine, bright with bees, stretched upon the sceptre aud cross, denotes the pavilion of the Emperor. The buildings in the Park are capped with fanciful flags, indicative of their purposes ; yonder you see the crescent of the Turk dominating his mosque, and the crocheted pagodas tell of Thibet and the land of tea; the frowning, sepulchral portals of the Egyptian adjoin the more intellectual effigies of tte Assyrian lion, where lie sucking their pipes die pure-skinned Per sians : high over all a lighthouse pierces the sky, and the twinkle of waters among the trees denotes the ripple of artificial lakes that discharge under an iron bridge into the animated Seine. A railway depot, whose rails go flying through the air and sapping a block of houses alternately to pass the river and thread the city, is equalled in spaciousness, nearest the eye, by a great international club-house for the bourse ot the world. Past aud beyond ail, the far sweeping valley of the river goes to the right among the purpled and palaced hills, and dark forests; to the left, under its marble bridges, a score in number, point ing at its various angles, now to the far dome of the Pantheon —now to the towers of Notre Dame —now to the steep of Mont martre and the tombstones in the groves of Pere la Chaise. —Extracts from Cor. X. Y. 1 rib une. Tile Degeneracy of Young Men.— An exchange asks : “ Why is it that the proportion of young men in this country, who turn out badly, is so much larger than it used to be ?" and finds a solution of its question in the answer that “ a spirit of ialse pride induces their parents to put their boys in stores and offices, rather than apprentice them to good trade®.” “Me chanics and laboring men, - ’ the writer adds, “have too generally imbibed the idea that they ought to place their boys a peg above the drudgery of manual labor, which, however, is a great mistake.” Corn and Bacon fob the Destitute from Maryland and Virginia.— lt is with much satisfaction that we announce a further arrival of supplies for the des titute of this State, consisting of 3,000 bushels of corn and 10,000 pounds ofbacon, the gift mainly of generous Maryland and a part from Jefferson County, Virginia. The arrival of these provisions will be a happy relief to many ofour suffering poor, now standing sorely in need of assistance. They were’brought free of charge by the steamship Falcon, of Messrs. Mordecai and Courtenay & Trenholm's Baltimore Line, and her commander; Captain Reed, has done all in his power to facilitate their 1 transportation. Charleston Courier, 24 th. Law Intelligence—Court of Appeals—, j Decisions In Important Charleston ; Cases. [Special to the Charleston Courier.} , Columbia, Monday, April 22. The Court of Appeals, this morning, an nounced its decision in the following cases ; from the Charleston Circuit, argued before ' it last week : In the case of John 8. Riggs at the suit of Lawrence J. Witself in which a verdict was rendered against 1 the appeliant for §2,500, for alleged negli gence in the sale of the plaintiffs planta- I Don, whereby the money was eaught in bank at the close of the‘war and lost, a new trial was ordered, and the verdict set aside. 2. In the ease of the Northeastern Rail Koadj at the suit of 0. Porcher, in which the railroad had undertaken in February, 1865. to transport certain cotton for the plaintiff, which was lost, and in which the railroad claimed as defence that it had been prevent ed by the railroad being in the possession of the Confederate forces from thefulfillmentof its contract, and in which the Court below had held that nothing would excuse it us a common carrier but the act of God or of' the public enemy, and a verdict had been rendered for the plaintiff, the Court uis missed the appeal and refused to grant anew trial. 3. In the case of Jenkins (colored) ads. the State, convicted at the last Court of murder, an appeal was taken on the ground that the indictment was for murder, where as the evidence showed that the killing was a riotous homicide ; the verdict of the Jury was sustained and the appeal dis missed. 4. In the case of Willingham, at the suit of the College of Charleston, the ques tion being whether a trustee is entitled to commissions on stock directed to be trans ferred by him, and where he has, in order to vest the same in the legatee, to do some thing to pass the legal title. The Court announced no decision and held the same under further advisement. Horrible Affair in Memphis. A TRIPLE MURDER —VENGEANCE OF A DE PRAVED WOMAN. An event has just transpired in Mem phis which has caused an excitement un paralleled. The chief actor in this seem ingly unreal drama, which basin it a touch of the barbaric age, was a young man named Robert Furguson, a late graduate of the Medical University of Philadelphia, and he bore a reputation for mildness and good behavior, and who was fast becoming recognized among his profession as a youth of great promise. The tale, which seems unreal, is briefly as follows : After Ferguson’s return from Philadel phia, where he had prosecuted his studies in medicine with great diligence, and grad uated with first honors, he became con nected in business with one of our popular physicians, and was, to all appearances, advancing along the road to professional renown with rapid strides. But it seems that good fortune did not benefit him. lie became reckless, and finally it was rumored among his many friends that he had be come enamored with a young lady of great beauty, but depraved habits, and had neg lected his business so that he could enjoy her charms. She had other suitors, among them a young man who was considered a warm friend of Ferguson. Their meetings were clandestine, but ere long Ferguson became aware of the false, actions of the courtesan whom he loved. A coldness ensued between him and his false friend. One night they met in a drinking saloonwhere desperate characters of every description assemble nightly, and debauch until the gray morning drives them forth to their pursuits of crime and degradation. The meeting resulted fatally to the false friend. Ferguson shot him, and was immediately arrested, but through some peculiar modus opcra.ndi he was re leased on bonds. After his release he went to Nashville; but a love for the beautiful courtesan and a desire to again mingle in the scenes-that had fascinated I him and dragged him from a position of honor and trust, caused him to return to Memphis. Fatal action ! The spirits of vengeance were abroad. The woman who, by her beautiful person and educated wiles, had caused him to forget his duties to society and his profession, was gather ing the meshes of death around him. She had loved the man whom Ferguson,had so ruthlessly shot down, and the sight of his dead body had aroused in her pitiless heart all the passions of desperation anil re venge. Slowly she wound the coil, and as she caressed her victim her eyes would seem to rend his very heart. In her desire to fully mature her plans, she seemingly de scended lower into the pool of degradation, and as surely dragged with her the infatuat ed object of her hate. From a sumptuous ly furnished house of prostitution, called “Madame Lovejoy’s," she became an inti mate of the Olympic Theatre on Second street, in thecapacity of beer girl, and from thence to a low den on Washington street, “The Cotton Plant.” There she cultiva ted the acquaintance o! men who were noted for their desperation and villainy. But in her train she brought many youths of good family, whom, through good ad dress and assiduous attention, she had j ready to do her bidding. Ferguson saw that he was in dangerfrom his many rivals, and insisted that they leave for California. She made some trival excuse, remarking : “You will go on a longer journey next week.” She spoke truly, but little did she know that her coils were enveloping not only her intended victim, but herself. On the night of the 2Stli she concluded to put in operation her darling but fiendish object. Her accomplices—men of depraved na tures— Hammond, Yonker and Bowles were instructed as to the time when Fer guson was to bo assassinated. The courtesan made an appointment with Ferguson. True to his word, he came. As he entered the saloon, where parties were in the habit of drinking wines, etc., Yonker entered, and was introduced by the woman. He ordered a bottle of wine. As Ferguson was lifting a glass of the sparkling bev erage to his lips, the courtesan, with the glitter of the snake in her eye, raised her glass, remarking, “Ferguson, this is the signal lor your death,” and as she drained her glass, Yonker, with a gleaming bowie knife, made a lunge at the breast of Fer guson. • His situation flashed across bis mind as the cold, sharp steel penetrated his left shoulder. With a quick bound he placed himself in a corner of the room, and draw ing a navy-sized pistol, he shot Yonker dead, just as the would-be assassin at tempted to fire at him with a Derringer pistol. The courtesan, foiled in her at tempt, fired at Ferguson, who fell, covered with blood, in the corner where he stood at bay. Excited at the sight of blood,, the woman continued her shots, wounding Ferguson in four places, and then rushed upon him with a knife. Just as the keen point touched his body he fired a fatal shot, and the graceful, fascinating and beauti • ful woman fell upon her once loved para mour, a corpse. The crowd broke through the door and gathered around the forms of those who had figured in this singular and dreads ul strife. Before the fair woman, whose fiendish like spirit had caused this dreadful havoc, could be lifted from the form of Ferguson, he had expired. Many looked on in awe and silence, and perhaps the scene in that house of depravity may rest as a warning to the many debased people who visited its wicked walls. The faces of the dead wore a deep set look, and on Ferguson’s could be that of surprise and determina tion. The night was dismal, and the ele ments seemed at war. It has created a peculiar sensation with our people, and perhaps it may be the means of clearing from our city these elements that were born and fostered here during the war, a lid which now a.re flourishing in the midst .of gilded tapestry, beautiful gas jets, and the gaudy paraphernalia of vice and de bauchery. Terrible Suffering and Cold in the Far West.— St. Joseph, April 16. News from the West is meagre. A com pany of soldiers from Fort Laramie re cently arrived at Fort Saunders, after a terrible and laborious trip through the Cheyenne Pass, where, for many miles, the men were obliged to. dig their way through snow twenty feet in depth. They were badly frozen, many of them being as black as negroes. They represent that the gar rison at Fort Laramie are suffering consid erably from scurvy. The Cheyenne Pass is the one chosen for the Union Pacific Railroad. The Stock of the Overland Stage Com pany are suffering from some malady, be lieved to be glanders, and many of them are dying at the various stations on the route. Episcopal Convention.

The Atlanta papers of Wednesday pub lVii the following’ important correspond- j cnee between Major-General Pope and Governor Jenkins. The inference is this, that if Gov. Jenkins advises the people of Georgia airainst organizing the State un der the terms of the Military Reconstruc tion Bill, he will be deposed by Gen. Pope. We have no further comments to make upon the correspondence at this time. Perhaps the less said upon the points at issue the better, as the military are deter mined to remove ail obstacles in carry ing out the provisions of the Military Bill: Headq’rs Tiiirii Military Dist | [ (Georgia, Alabama, and I lorida, ) > Atlanta, Ga., April 17, 1867. .

Paragraph 3 of that order reads as lol ; lows, viz: “HI. It is to be clearly understood, however, that the civil officers thus re tained in office shall confine themselves strictly to the performance of their official duties, and whilst holding their offices they shall not use any influence whatevef to deter or dissuade the people from taking an active partin reconstructing their State Government, under the act ot Congress to provide for the more efficient Government j of the Rebel States, and the actasupple mentary thereto.” I have the honor to request that you | will inform me at as early a day as possi ble, whether, when you issued your ad ! dress to the people of Georgia, dated Washington, D.

With I that communication was transmitted a copy of your General Order No. 1, issued j from Montgomery, Alabama, and my at | tention being called to paragraph 3 of that order. You inquire whether, when I issued my address to the people of Georgia, dated Washington, D. C., April 10th, | 1867,1 had seen or had knowledge of your j order above mentioned ? I answer that at I that time I had neither seen nor had I knowledge of it. 1 I supposed I was exercising such free dom in the public expression of opinion, relative to public matters, as seems still to be accorded to the citizens of this Republic, not imagining that it was abridged by the accident of the speaker or writer holding office. 8o much for the past, General, and I will only add, that in future I shall do and say what I may believe is required of me by the duty to which my‘oath of office binds me, and this, I trust, will not in volve either conflict or controversy between us in the execution of our respective trusts, as I think it need not; everything of this character I certainly desire to avoid. I am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, [Signed] Charles J. Jenkins, Governor of Georgia. Headq’rs Third Military District, | Georgia, Alabama and Florida, Atlanta, Ga., April 22, 1867. J Governor—l have the honor to ac knowledge the receipt of your letter of the 20th instant, in answer to mine of the 17th. It gives me pleasure to say that your explanation is satisfactory, so far as the past is concerned, and I cordially concur with you in the hope that our relations in the future may be harmonious and agreea ble. I would content myself with this answer to your letter but for the following remark which it contains. Yousay, “ I supposed I was using such freedom in the public expression of opinion relative to public matters as seems still to be accorded to the citizens of this Republic, not imagining that it Vas abridged by the accident of the speaker or writer holding office.” This expression seems to indicate that you think that in some manner, either personally or officially, you have been wronged by that paragraph of my order which has occasioned this correspondence, and that I am seeking to abridge the liberty of speech, in this State, in an unnecessary and oppressive manner. I trust that I may be able to disabuse your mind of this idea. It is scarcely ne cessary to tell you the late acts of Con gress, which I am sent here to execute, recognize the existing State government of Georgia as merely', provisional, and that the object of recognizing it at all was only that the ordinary course of business in the civil tribunals, and the administration of the laws of the State by the customary agencies, might not be interrupted further than was necessary for the strict execution of the laws of the United States. It is not doubted that Congress might have legisla ted the present State government of Geor gia out of existence as easily as they have recognized it as provisional, and it is as little to be doubted that Congress would have done so, could it have been foreseen that the entire machinery of the provision al State government would be used to de feat the execution of the very law by whose sufferance alone it has any exist ence at all. It is very clear that Congress did not intend to recognize or permit to exist, by these reconstruction acts, a pow erful organization to he used against their execution, nor can such use be made of the | State government of Georgia without great | ly obstructing, if not, indeed, entirely frus trating, the performance of the duty re quired of mo by these acts. The existing State government was per | mitted to stand for the convenience of the people of Georgia, in the ordinary admin istration of the local civil laws, and to that end it should be carefully confined. It was in this view that paragraph 3 of my order assuming command was con sidered, and it is not easy to see how it can he regarded as oppressive or unjust. Holding your office by permission of the United States Government, you are de barred, as I am, from expressing opinions, or using influences to prevent “(the* execu tion of the laws of the United States, or to excite ill-feeling and ’ opposition to the General Government, which is executing these acts of Congress. With your personal opinions, or those of any citizen of Georgia, or their expression within the limits of the law, I have noth ing to do; but the distinction between personal opinion openly expressed in an official capacity, and official opinion, is too nice for the common understanding. The influence of your opinions, openly avowed, must of necessity be very great with the civil officers of the State in all its departments, when the tenure of office is largely dependent upon your pleasure. Your opinions as a private citizen, without 1 official station, and the same opinions whilst Governor of Georgia, have a very different significance, and produce a very i different effect. I only require that the civil machinery of the State of Georgia be not perverted so as to frustrate the execution of the laws of the United States, and, for that reason, I exact from the civil officers that, whilst they retain their offices, they confine them selves strictly to the performance of their official duties, and do not use their influ ence to prevent the people of the State from submitting to and carrying out the laws of the United States. In your address to the people of Geor gia, which occasioned this correspondence, you-denounce the acts of Congress which I am sent here to execute, as “palpably un constitutional” and “grievously oppres sive.” and advise the people, whatever may be the decision of tlje Supreme Court of the United States, to take no action under those laws. Whilst you counsel them not to resist by violence, you at the same time, by open official denunciation of the law, invite the very action which you seem to deprecate. It is manifestly impossible forme to per form the duties required of me by the acts of Congress, while the Provisional Gover nor of the State is openly denouncing them and giving advice to the public in his official capacity, the result of which will be to excite discontent and array the' whole army of office-holders in the State in opposition to their execution, unless, indeed, the whole civil govern ment of the State is overthrown, and the Military substituted. I think such a change would be as distasteful to the people of Georgiaas it would to me, and yet if the civil officers of the State follow the example which your excellency has set them, there will be no escape from such a result. The 3d paragraph of my order imposes no restrictions on you to which I am not myself subject; Vou hold your office by permission of the united States Govern ment; I hold mine, as do thousands of others, both civil and military, by sub stantially the same tenure. Custom, old enough to be law itself, restricts us in conversation and action, precisely as para graph 3 of my order restnetsyou. There is a very simple. mode of freeing ourselves from such restrictions when they become too oppressive. In conclusion, Governor, it seems neees sarv for me to say, in general reply to the latter portion of your letter, that the para graph of my order to which you object 1 was very’ carefully considered; that it means precisely what it says, and that to the full extent of my power it will be j strictly enforced. My great respect for your personal char acter lias made it painful to me to write you this letter, but as a fair and full under standing between us is absolutely essential to anything like harmonious relations, I have thought it necessary, even at the risk of giving offence, to acquaint you fully with my understanding of my duty, and of the sta'tuk ot the civil officers of the Pro visional State Governments under the late Acts of Congress. I again assure you that it shall be mj* study, as it will be my pleasure, to preserve unimpaired friendly and harmonious rela tions with you, and I trust that our views on the subject of this correspondence may be made to harmonize sufficiently to secure this result. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant, [Signed] John Pope, Major-General Commanding. Herdq’rs Third Military Dist., ] (Georgia, Alabama, and Florida,) j- Atlanta, Ga-, April 23, 1867. ] [General Order No. 10.] The following paragraph from General Order No. 1, from these Headquarters, is re-published for the information of all con cerned; “Paragraph III.—It is to be clearly understood, however, that the civil officers thus retained in office shall confine them selves strictly to the performance of their official duties, and whilst holding their offices they shall not use any influence whatever to deter or dissuade the people from taking an active part in reconstruct ing tlieif State Government under the Act of Congress, to provide for the more ef ficient government of the rebefStates and the Act supplementary thereto.” The words, “shall not use any influence whatever,” shall be interpreted in their widest sense, and held to mean advice, verbal or written, given to individuals, committees, or the public. All officers in this Military District are directed, anil citizens aj - e requested, to give immediate information of any infrac tion of this' order, and to prevent misunder standing on the subject, it is distinctly an j nounced that any civil official (State or municipal) within this district, who vio lates the above order, will be deposed from his office and held accountable in such other manner as the nature of the case de mands. By command'of Brevet Major General John Pope. G. K. Sanderson, Capt. 33d U. S. Infantry, and A. A. A. G. [Official.] War Aspect In Europe. The news from Europe for the last two days is of a very warlike aspect. Prussia is represented as having refused the mediation of some of the leading Pow ers to settle the -points at issue be tween herself and France. Napoleon has recalled the Duke of Majenta, General MacMahon, from Algiers to take com mand of the forces at Paris. All furloughs are 'revoked, and officers are detailed to drill the reserves. Commercial and finan cial centres are greatly agitated. Stocks are declining at London. Cotton is falling at Liverpool, and rentes are heavy and declining at Paris. Cotton is tumbling at New York, and gold is booming. This indicates great alarm and’’pro spective failures in monetary cir cles. It portends war; but, notwith standing these warlike indications, there is still hope that Napoleon and Bismarck are too wise to plunge ipto a war which will bring destruction to France, Prussia and, perhaps, the whole of Europe. The London Times estimates the French army at 700,000 men, of whom 555,000 are available for aggressive warfare. It sfiys that the general impression at. the latest dates in Europe was, that although every thing was in a very unsettled and feverish state, war was not inevitable, and hostilities would probably be postponed until next year. The Times is of opinion that so long as the relations between France and Germany lie in the hands of two such men as were supposed -to have learnt to know and to value each other at Biarritz, the world ought not too lightly to cherish sinister apprehensions. Both Napoleon and Bismarck are fully aware of the magni tude of the enterprise to which a moment of rashness might commit them. Both ot them have accomplished much in their lifetime, and it is natural for both of them to shrink from now trials which could lose the benefit or tarnish the glory of former achievements. Neither of them is young, neither of them exults in that firm, exuberant health nhich urges men to in cessant activity. Peace is equally a boon to France and Germany. A Washington letter to the Charleston Courier says: “A war in Europe seems to be consider ed as inevitable by ail the diplomatic men here. The State Department has advices from onr Ministers abroad indicating war as probable, but not, perhaps, this sum mer. The Luxemburg question may bo laid over tor the present. It is rumored here that numbers of young men, of military experience, acquired in our re cent civil war, are desirous of taking ser ’vice abroad in the wars that are impend ing. It is said that numbers of Virginia officers will offer their services to the French Emperor.” Detroit l’ost—Ben. brant. The Detroit Post. says the Chronicle <fc Sentinel is determined to be right upon the record, and nominates General Grant for the Presidency. The Post is mistaken. The record is blurred with blood, and in justice and iniquity—so full of all that en genders bad passions, hate and revenge, and all that is evil, that wo would blot it out. It is to get rid of the evil effects of that record, that we suggest the name of General Grant as a peace offering, by Southern soldiers. We do not know what General Grant’s political opinions are; nor do we much care. In the simple am bition, to repair the sidewalks of the town of his residence, we see the desire to do good, not to do evil. His conduct toward us—a fallen foe—has never been disgraced by petty malignity and cowardly revenge, but always discovers magnanimity, even in the execution of harsh measures. He obeys laws and orders without a question as to right or policy or justice; but the execution of those orders—the fulfillment of those laws — does not constrain him to suppress kindly sympathy, nor prevent his individual efforts to alleviate personal suffering and individual hardships. We see no recon cilement possible between parties at the North. Ihe Republican party— as a parti/ controlled by present Radical leaders — offers us no platform but abject submission. We must not only eat dirt, but must say we like it. Not only so —if not ofily we eat the dirt and say we like it—even that re pentance is more than sackcloth and ashes —would be insufficient- But we infinitely prefer General Grant, with the record oi his sword, to dallying to political hacks upon terms. Howmuchsoever the record is unquestionable, we have, at least, this respect for him: he is brave, generous hearted, a lover of law and order, and, under a conviction of right, has nerve enough “ to fight it out on that line.” Bad State of Affairs in Alabama.— The Montgomery Advertiser publishes the following extract from a letter written at Selma, a few days since: “An order has just been shown here, purporting to be issiied by Maj'or-Genieral Swayne, dated at Montgomery, and pro hibiting the holding of the Circuit Court of Greene county. The Judge was in con sequence compelled to adjourn Court from day to day until he could learn from the General whether or not the order was genuine. George Goldthwaite, Esq., was on his way to Montgomery to look into the matter, and fortunately met General Swayne in Selma, who, the moment he saw the order, pronounced it spurious, and not emanating from him.” The Advertiser states that Gen. Swayne has returned to Montgomery, and sent the order back to Greene county, with the en dorsement that it was a palpable forgery. Some evil-disposed person hatched up the hoax for private purposes. Pollard Again in Limbo.—Mr. 11. Rives Pollard has again come to the sur face. We find the folllowing paragraph in the Richmond Dispatch, of the 19th : Mr. H. Rives Pollard was arrested, yes terday upon the Central train- immediately upon its arrival, in obedience to a peace warrant issued by Recorder Regnault, charging him with threatening the life of Thomas H. Wynne, Esq. He was con veyed to the second station-house, where he gave bail in the sum of S3O0 —Judge Uuld acting as his security-—for his ap pearance before the Mayor this morning. One thousand and forty-five dollars were raised in one night in Pittsburg, Pa., for the Southern Relief cause. Crops in Decatur.—Our farmers are later in planting this year, owing chiefly to the abundance of rains which have failed during the last month than the oldest settlers remember ever to have known them before. But few of our richest river and bottom lands have yet been planted, although it is not regarded as at all militat es against the interest of the planter.— Bainbridge Argus. Gov. Jenkins reached home last Satur day evening. Since he left Washington it has been announced that argument will be heard by the Supreme Court on the tem porary injunction prayed for on Friday next. Ihe counsel for the State are de cidedly of opinion that Georgia is entitled to the relief she asks. State affairs, in the meantime, will no doubt go on in an ami cable manner. We feel assured that Gov. Jenkins is entirely indisposed to any controversy with the military authorities, and desires quiet in the State.— Southern Recorded. Thomas county enjoys the honor of be ing the only county in this section of Geor gia that has responded to the reconstruc tion letter of ex-Gov. Jpseph E. Brown. We presume that even that county, learning wisdom from the past, will not be so hasty another time in heeding the ad vice of one who has so fallen in public estimation during the last few years, and very justly, we think.— Bainbridge Are/us. heat Crop.—The Monroe Advertiser says; The _ wheat crop is said to be ex cellent in this county—better than it has been for many years. If it is not injured by the cold or wet, there will be an abun dant crop; ami if the farmers can obtain the necessary supplies to carry on their farms for the next two months, when the wheat will be harvested, we will not fear a famine, and well filled garners will reward the diligent husbandman. Gen. Pope and Gov. Jenkins.—-We have abundant reason to know that the recent interview between these distin guished officials was of the most pleasant and satisfactory character, and we hope nothing may occur in future to disturb the pleasant relations now existing. Two such sensible men will scarcely fall out by the way. If the whisperers, toadies and med dlers generally can be forced to take back seats, we shall have no fears whatever for a harmonious and happy future. General Pope possesses a large amount of practical sense, and so does Governor Jenkins. — Atlanta New Era. MARRIED, At St. Paul’s Church, on Tuesday evening, 23d inst., by the Rev. E.

I tried the remedy on myself last Fall for a paralytic stroke which I received In the Spring of 18G0, which affected my left side somuen that I could not work a toe or finger on that side, and, in the space of three months, it relieved me so much that I could walk three miles any day, and, by catching a limb, could draw up my whole weight, 175 lbs., with my left arm.
