England ({five to Ireland, tlin/reti
cutty, the iirlvllege of liberty; ju*t ns
the liberty of action granted to the
Southern States by the Federal Gov
ernment, wus merely n theoretical
liberty. Like Heury VII. and Wil
liam 111., President Grant maintains
that the laws of the central govern
ment ore obligatory upon the States,
oven when these laws annihilate, by
a stroko of the pen, the rights of the
States, and seriously cripple their
commerce nnd industry. And ns
Burke said of Ireland, "1782 is the
1688 of Irelund,” so is 1875 the 1088 of
the South. Badical Senators have
even gone farther than England did
at that time; for they maintain that,
an employer In the South shall not I
be allowed to refuse employment to '■
the negro, who, by voting with and
thus sustaining the despotism of the
Badioal policy, becomes a public en
emy. Fur there is no Radical jmrty in
tire South, or Rejiubtican parly in the '
Smith, except that composed of the
negro race. Southern white men are
almost a unit against the party in
power. The power to suspend the
l ight of habeas corpus, proposed by
tho Radicals, that their Infamous
emissaries in the South may imprison
innocent men—as was done once
before in this good city of Columbus,
Georgia- without regard to the sacred
rights of individual liberty, would
liavo shocked Burke, though accus
tomed as lie was to the reckless
tyrannies visited upon his unhappy
country. The conduct, of the Gov
ernment in using the public funds in
order to corrupt the negroes and pur
chase their votes by voting immense
supplies of bacon and provisions to
the sufferers in the "overflowed” dis
tricts in the South, and distributing
these “rations” hundreds of miles
from tho submerged districts, giving
them only to the negro population;
and tho immense riehes garnered by
oarpet-bng Governors and officials in
a few short years—find their parallel,
too, in the history of Ireland.
“Infamous pensions to infamous
men,” said Grattan. Oh! that a Grat
tan would arise to expose these cor
ruptions to the world, and tear aside i
the mask from the whining Ed-'
mundses, Hint afflict tho United States
Senate with their specious pleadings.
The pensions given in Ireland to
those neoding relief in 1750 was only
$220,000; but in 1793, it was #600,X),
under the “union” inaugurated by
Cromwell. And it was rarely that a
vice-roy left Ireland with less than!
$1,500,000; nnd Rufus B. Bullock,
“General”Littlefield und others have
fitly emulated the example. It was
proposed in Parliament, to vote a
twonty-flvo years’ subsidy to main
tain their power in Ireland; but, like
tho effort of Gnuit’* partisans to in
crease the army for several years
ahead, that he might control South
ern elections, as Louis Napoleon did
when he annexed Snrvia to France
by the. suffrage of the bayonet, it failed.
Hate auil Mime.
Our readers will remember a piece
of potty spite and hatred that was
enaotod by tho Judiciary Committee
of the House, in Congress, reporting
adversely to removing the political
disabilities of Admiral Semmes. Tills
distinguished gentleman and Confed.
orate has recently sent a communica
tion to the Mobile Register regarding
tlio notion of the Committee.
This Committee alleged as a reason
for their refusal to relieve ids disa
bilities, that when Semmes was in the
Confederate Navy ho treated United
Btatoa soldiers cruelly in the Indian
seas. The Admiral gives an entire
different reason for their action, and
it is clear tiiat such alleged cruelty
was not the motive that actuated
them in their base conduct. The
Committee forgot that Admiral
Homines had already bean arraigned
on the charge and acquitted by a
board presided over by an officer of
tho government. This investigation
occurred when the feeling in the
North was running high against the
South. He was arrested by order of
Secretary Welles, at the time Mrs.
Surratt nnd Wnrtz were hung, to sat
isfy tho public clamor, and when the
merchants at the North demanded a
victim for the oommeroe that tuvd
been destroyed.
No; this was not tho cause of their
refusal to restore him to tho full
rights of citizenship. Semmes had
done more than anyone else; for he
was not satisfied with whipping their
mon-of-war, but ho struck the severest
blow of all-touched their pockets by
sinking their cargoes. This is the
groat, cruelty that Admiral Semmes
lias been guilty of, and in the eyes of
the worshippers of the Almighty Dol
lar that is tho unpardonable sin he
has committed.

PABTIOULABS OF THE TORNADO,
ieeoi sT or thi: rr*ntn<H.
Special < Dulv Tuhm*. ]
T.vl*otton, Ga., March 22, 1875.
It becomes the duty of youreorres
jiondent to chronicle one of the se
verest visitations it has ever fallen to
the lot of any people to suffer. On
Suturduy last tho morning opened
with a heavy array of clouds sur
charged with ruin, which came down
tn occasional outbursts, attended with
unusual electrical pyrotechnics. Oc
casionally could bo heard the dull
| roar of thunder, and tho day opened
|ln a foreboding manner. At noon the
| clouds thickened, and began to show
I considerable activity, furious gusts of
them being driven across the heavens
!ut a fearful speed. Suddenly an inky
' mass of clouds covering the entire
western horizon, illuminated at rapid
intervals by lightning, and attended
by a constant roaring, which grew
louder and yet louder, began to sweep
over tho country in its giant wrath.
It was easy to divine that great de
struction was following in the wake
of thi„ tornado. Its energy was most
fearful; its signal guns of thunder
guve token of the approaching havoc,
and all nature seeming to shrink be
neath tho direful stride of the storm
king. Fortunately for the denizens
j of Taibotton it passed a mile to the
north of the town, crossing the road
leading to Bellevue at tho residence ,
of Mrs. Edwards. Here It did con- J
siderahlo damage to fences and out-
| houses, scattering far and near and
. sporting with solid foundations as
i though they had been tender boxes.
Mrs. Edwards’ dwelling was severely
damaged doors, lights, window
shutters and chimney funnels being
carried off in the blast.
Tho next 1 sufferer was Mr. John
Clemons, about a mile distant, who
had all the houses on his place blown
entirely down, his family barely es
caping with their lives. Some finely
wooded lands belonging to Mr. Rob
ert Foster were utterly denuded of
timber. The tornado then seemed to
j redouble its energy, for yet more Ti
i tanio feats with field and wood. On
ward it advanced directly over tho
mill of ,T. B. Gorman, where it utterly
demolished everything in its track.
Tho mill house, cotton press, and all
outbuildings belonging to the prop
erty were a total wreck. The timbers i
of the mill house wore scattered for
miles, portions of them having been
seen In adjacent plantations. The
j stones and turbine wheel, it is j
thought, are uninjured. The gearing ;
| on tho water gin was promiscuously I
broken off. Altogether It was a fear-:
fill ruin. Mr. Trussell, tho miller, i
was a severe loser, having nothing 1
left in any shape that could-be made
available. The loss to mill property
is estimated at about $3,060. The
largo rock dam, newly erected, was
uninjured. Timber and adjacent
buildings in the track of the storm i
suffered almost n total demolition.
Air. Samuel Foster, William Foster, 1
Bcnj. Blanton and others lost largely
in houses, fences and timber.
At Itedbono the school-house and
dwelling of Air. Robert Bryan were I
completely demolished. Several
members of Air. Bryan’s family werej
seriously Injured. Wo have nothing
reliable from the further progress
east of the storm, so will return to
the western port of the county, where
tho havoc was much more severe as
regards tho loss of life than in the
localities cited.
Tho information here furnished is
entirely trustworthy, and was ob
tained by a gentleman conversant
with tho facts. It appears that a
more northerly current passed over
Hamilton, Harris county, at aliout
the same hour.
This current passed over the resi
dence of Afr. Sparks, Valley Flains,
where much loss resulted in build
ings, fences, etc. Hunt & Sirarks'
store was completely gutted, the tim
bers blown away and all the contents
scattered to the storm and winds.
Bolts of dry goods were flying their
penons in fantastic disorder from
scattered trees and lowly shrub. Lit
tle or bo damage was done at Flint
Hill. Swift’s cotton factory, on Pota
to creek, Upson county, we under
stand, is damaged considerably.
Coidd not nsoortnin probable loss.
Farm houses, barns, in Upson in
track of the storm suffered general
demolition.
i Following the track of the lower
■ current from Hamilton we And that
; Mount Airy was entirely leveled to
I the ground. The scene beggars ilo-
I soription. It can scarcely he recog-
J nised by those acquainted with the
| locality, so fearful arc the changes
! wrought by the storm. Mr. Tom
. Hunt, jr., merchant, was severely
I bruised, and suffered the total loss of
i his entire stock of goods, papers,
! money, books, &c. We give below a
! list of the killed and wounded at this
i place. Tho following were killed :
| Miss Hines Kennon, Miss Bettie Ken
nqn, Miss Belle Kennon, John Kon-
I non, jr„ Mrs. Sarah Kennon and
babe, AI. Crawford, jr., H. Kennon.
colored, two small negroes near Alt.
j Airy, and John Taylor, colored. At
Air. S. AI. Brannon’s, the mother of
j John Taylor was mortally wounded,
and Marshall Lucas had an arm
i broken.
The following parties are at Capt.
j Tom Neal's: A. J. Clark, teacher, Alt.
| Airy, severely wounded ; Afrs. A. F.
j Clark, wound probably serious; two
! children of same, slight external
bruises; Jeff Fortenberry, wound not
serious; Tom Hunt, ir., arm broken ,
Willie Moon and Mrs. Moon, serious
ly wounded; Rev. ,T. C. MoGehee,
complicated wound In head and face;
negro boy wounded in hip, not bro
ken ; Airs. Burdick and Mrs. Tommie
killed; Aflss Eddie Bradshaw and
I Mrs. AI. Bradshaw slightly wounded;
Jimmie Bradshaw mortally wounded;
Charles, negro boy, seven years old,
mortally wounded; Albert MeGehee,
colored, thigh broken.
The residence and outhouses of Dr.
Peters are a total loss. Several per
! son*were killed by fulling timber.
Wo append a list of the casualties at
tills place: Annie Peters, Ellen Pe
ters and Jerry Peters, colored, killed;
a negro boy mortally wounded. On
j the plantation of Dr. Peters very few
I negroes escaped without injury. The
fencing on tho entire plantation is
j destroyed, and everything wears a
I look of utter desolation, so terrific
! has been the work of the storm.
Nearer Taibotton Air. E. Culpepper
was killed while attempting to escape
from his dwelling. Airs. E. Culpcp
! per and Airs. Tom Culpepper are both
i quite seriously wounded. Several
! others on the place received slight
injuries.
Baughvllle, the residence of Mr.
Nathan Baugh, nnd the location of
Bowery Academy, under control of
Prof. J. G. Callioun, and where Air.
Baugh had extensive manufacturing
shops, was entirely demolished—not
a house of any kind being left on the
site. The store of Air. John Wilson,
also located hero, was blown to pieces
and ita contents scattered broadcast
over the country. Mr. itaugli, with
commendable enterprise, is clearing
away the debris and preparing to
again erect his shops. At this locali
ty the injury both to life and pro
perty exceeded tiiat of any other lo
cality in the track of the storm, as
far ns heard from.
Below find a list of the injured:
; Allas Rosa Simpson. Ala.; Aliss L.
j Sparks, Master G. P. Sparks, slightly
wounded; W. Roberts, Harris county, j
slight wound in head; Watt. Huff,
Muscogee, slight wound In face; Har
ry Calhoun, Talbot, serious; Dora
Calhoun, Talbot, slight; Prof. J. G.
Calhoun, slight; Airs. J. G. Calhoun
and Mrs. Jno. Wilson, serious; Miss
Stringfellotv, severe; Winnie Jones,
colored, was killed, and a negro boy
mortally wounded; Willie Me. Lee,
received a slight injury in the head.
Six others at Baughvllle, were slight
ly Injured.
As soon as the storm cleared away
the entire country turned out to offer
what succor they might to the suffer
ers. The most sympathetic impulses
of humanity wen- aroused, and all
vied to see what could tiest bo done.
Much yet remains to lie accomplish- 1
ed. The fences on many farms are
entirely down; but we arc glad to
state that assistance is coming to the
i rescue, and that the houses and fen
ces will soon be rebuilt, or sufficient
ly so ns to protect tho people against
further suffering.
Taibotton sent out a large delega
tion of her citizens to-day, and a con
siderable number of laborers, to
assist in the reopening of the roads,
als% in rebuilding tho houses and
fencing. Many others, whose names
we could not get, have suffered severe
losses. Altogether, it is impossible
to determine the results of tho dread
visitation of the tornado. It is un
paralleled in the history of this sec
tion of Middle Georgia, and for
years will the country feel its ravages.
A meeting of the citizens of the
town was held In the court house this
evening, to take steps for the imme
diate relief of the sufferers by the
storm. Aluj. T. A. Brown was select
ed as chairman, and a secretary ap
pointed.
Committees were arranged for the
town, and every district in tho coun
ty, to solicit contributions. The com
mittees to canvass thoroughly and
report in Taibotton, on Monday next,
the 29th proximo.
AVe doubt not our citizens will re
spond nobly to the cause of suffering
humanity.
