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. —The Rome Courier tells how a little revenue oolkieUU' tackled the wrong man in that section, We are informed tiiat. one <iv last woek while Mr. Peuvy, Deputy Collec tor of Internal Revenue, was search ing for stills ho wont to the house of John Waguouncar Ball Plav and tho parties had u quarrel in regard to a still in Mr. Wagnon’s house which he alleged ho had not used. Several shots were exchanged and Peavv twice wounded—once In the face and again in the bowels. Peavy’s wounds are serious but it is believed not fatal.

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. Ouii.ua M.
