Thebe is a gloomy financial cloud
hanging over Great Britain, Hovcral
failures of extensive iron monuufoc
turer* have occurred there, which, to
gether, amount to several millions
pounds sterling.
It is stated in the New York Jterald
that the President wrote his third
term letter and gave it out for publi
cation without any consultation with
his Cabinet. Certainly; Grant re
gards the Cabinet as his military staff
only. Ho wants tools, not men, to
surround him.
“Oath," in Si. I ..mis 7o<-, has
this to say of Whiteluw Held :
Bold, like Greeley, is of shallow
economical knowledge; the less ho
knows the more positive he Is about
it,
Gath, Oath, “tell tt not in (huh,
for Bold knows more about it than
you do, Gath.
Mn. Baxter suggests to Governor
Smith that tho convicts be employed
to drain Okeeflnokoo swamp. Good
Heavens! Mr. Baxter,don’t you know
that the swamp would first drain
the convicts? Mash’em, hang cm,
cut their throats; but for mercy’s
sake, don’t murder them by whole
side in that way!
The emigration of its subjects to
America is desperately opposed by
the German Government. Great
armaments all over Europe indicate,
first., that the rulers are bent on pro
tecting their dynasties; and, second,
that a war of alliances is inevitable
if armaments continue to increase in
the present manner.
The entire subscription list of tho
A'fiM)* has been transferred to the < <m-
Kiltnt'um.
We are glad of tt. Not. that the At
lanta Mim has suspended we regret
that, but that a journal so liberal lo
its cotemporaries as to get up an
nual excursions for them, and defray
the expenses for the same, should be
in so flourishing a condition. “The
ComtUntion, now and forever!”

The suit against Clou. Benjamin T.
Butlw for SIO,OOO for not dividing a
big feo with u brother attorney was
nailed before Judge Benedict in
Brooklyn the other day. Ben ntade
* 28,000 in four days out. of the estate
ofOassowayß. Lamar, of Georgia,
agreeing to pay another lawyer one
hulf tlie proceeds if stiweasftil. Ben
is “spoony” about money, hence this
suit against slippery Ben.

Apropos of the sale of the Bruns
wick and Albany Railroad, tin? Ma
con Tdegrtrph says: “Under the law,
it now becomes the duty of the Gov
ernor again to effect a sale, if possi
ble, through the ngency of three
commissioners. These ho will pro
ceed to appoint at once, and they
will be selected from the wisest and
most upright citizens in the State.
He will exert his prerogative to
cheek and control their action in
every particular, and in the meun
time the State will continue the di
rection and management of the road
as at present.’’.
We clip the following from the
Atlanta Hcrahl:
What Bullock's Election Cost the
Government. Besides this, says one
of the clerks, “wo paid otlt $47R,000
reconstruction money from the At
lanta offloo, Tor the purpose of de
fraying the expenses of Bullock’s
election, and employing the persons
required by law to open the polls and
to stay at them for itvo days.”
*>le ol the Emiutrr-Nuu.
From a notice published in the
L'/i'pii/vr-.S an of yesterday, wo see
that Messrs. Salisbury and Klink
have purchased it.
Mnj. W. L. Salisbury,,one of tho
purchasers, is well known in this
community as u liberal and generous
citizen. He is the President of the
Merchants’ and Mechanics’ Bank,
and as a bunker is a success. We
hope his efforts iu tho Held of jour
nalism will be ns pleasant and lucra
tive.
(’apt. C. A. Klink, the other mem
ber of the firm, has many friends in
this section. Ho is possessed of
large real estate, and for a long time
was a captain on ono of our river
botitsCF
Tho editorial management is left
in the hands of that veteran in jour
nalism, John H. Martin, while our
friend Jewett DeVotio still holds
sway over the local department.
We are right glad that the EnQuinr
has fallen into tho hands of gentle
men, so that journalistic courtesies
may not be uncommon between us.
Crop Prospect* In tills Vicinity.
Wo have ridden ton miles in oppo
site directions from Colmnbus and
observed the growing crops. It is too
early yet to “forecast” the yield of
corn or cotton. Cotton is very gen
erally “chopped out” and a good
stand prevails. Corn laud is in good
order—-we have never seen it better
prepared in this section. Corn, how
ever, is small and needing rain badly.
The rains that have so refreshed Co
lumbus have not been general or ex
tensive. The llrst cotton that was
planted on river bottoms had to be
replanted. In this latitude we do not
think one gains by very early plant
ing of cotton. A good stand is all
important! Oats and wheat have
been partially harvested, the fall sow
ings yielding good crops. Oats ought
to lie sown from September to No
vember. Wc learn that Mr. Robert
Flournoy’s wheat crop, on his splen
did estate, “Broken Arrow,” will
average twenty-live bushels per acre,
and no plantation in Upper Georgia
Will beat that.

Col-tjun'f!, G.ti, June 3d, ltfi'O.
* Mr. MU'ir: In reading your valua
ble paper of the Ist I noticed In your
editorial columtts'a brief notice of
tho “skirmish” Immediately preced
ing the light at Columbus. I would
not trespass upon your time or space
wore It not from tho fact a full ac
count of said skirmish had never
been written, and furthermore it is
closely Identified with tiro fall of Co
lumbus, on the night of April 10th,
JIBBS.
. On the afternoon of April 15th, 1805,
1 001. Von Hinken, tlie then command
ant of this ;*oyt, desired to ascertain
tho whereabouts of Gen. Wilson’s
force, us there wore conflicting ru
mors ns to the movement of his col
umns. The general Impression wus,
one column of tho enemy was moving
upon West Point, another upon En
faulu, and Columbus was to bo given
the go-by. Our city was under in-;
tense otcltemcnt, and reliable news
was loudly clamored for. Col. Von
Zinken concluded to send out a secret
scouting party to ascertain definitely
tho whereabouts of tho enemy. The
writer of this article, with ten others, [
were selected for that purpose. We :
were furnished with necessary in-,
struetions and pusses and started
upon our mission. We were a motley !
crowd, composed of a few “old Con- 1
feds,” the balance recruits from Ga
inst installment of home guards. We
were mounted variously, the writer
and one of our modern “Don Ciesar
do Bazans” gallantly bestrode steeds,
one degree removed from “Baalam’s ”
celebrated stood, somewhere men
tioned in the history of the early set
tlers of tills country. Our arms were
composed of such as homo guards
usually use (where the enemy are
not expected?. Our expedition was
to be a secret one, but as all great
Hlrategir moves are generally found
out, so was ours. When it was gen
erally known a ealin succeeded the
general tumult, and all was compar
atively quiet along the Chattahoo
chee.
With many jests we pursued our
way. Tho old Canted* were much
amused at the sanguinary conversa
tion of their colleagues, and were
rather itching for an opportunity to
rest their merits. As we made a late
start, wo camped about nine miles
from the city at a hospitable farm
i house, where we passed the night.;
I We were on the road again after an j
| early breakfast, eager for reliable
| news. We soon found It; in fact, in 1
such large quantities it was lather j
hard to dispose of. Wo had not j
gone far before wo met two cavalry-!
men, belonging to Buford’s com
mand, who reported the nearest
“blue-coat” at Tuskegee. We felt
liuppy at flic news, and gaily rode
■ on, nearing Crawford; the writer,
“Don Ciesar” and another were in ad
vance. As we rode into Crawford we
perceived a column of troops enter
ing from tho opposite side. Your
humble servant took in tho situation
at a glance, and recognized tho fuet
that as a healthy place for “Robs,” ,
Crawford was not a success. “Don !
Ciesar,” who was a little near-sighted
and without his < /lasses, did not take,
and was in an unconscious state of
happiness. We halted to got “relia
ble information" -and we got it, as
our friends beyond the “chasm”
opened lire upon us at a lively rate.
Wo deemed it. expedient to fall hack
to gain a better position. Wo soon
joined our reserve (eight men), and
held a lmfried Consultation. We eon
eluded to show a hold front and play
them a little game of hlutf; some
times indulged in in “brag” and "po
ker.” Mounted on "Possum”—my
mule- with carbine and side arms, I
took the initiative as picket. Our
main army retired to a hill, where
! they could see the road for some dis
j tance, and were prepared to give the
1 enemy u warm reception, should our ,
J advance bo driven in. (I must con
fess I thought there was some proba
| liility of such a result.) Tho enemy
i came slowly on, and in such numbers
“Possum” deemed it expedient to re
tire after the first fire. “Possum"
felt more eontideuoe when she joined
“our main army,” and stood the sec
ond tiro like a little man. As the col
umn of tlie enemy come well in sight, ]
wo opened Are, which was replied to !
in short order; bullets flew thick and
fast, and after exchanging several
rounds, as tho "blue coats" did not
retire, we did. Matters had grown
interesting and exciting. Wo sent a
courier to town with “reliable infor
mation,” and determined to make a
running fight, and to detain Mr. Wil
son and his boys as long us possible.
After a running tire of about three
miles oar little game of bluff seemed
to have been discovered, and tho en
emy began to call for a “new deal,"
and called its to come to a show. We
were rather In a straight: so we had
to make a run for it. They were
better mounted and armed than we,
and when we neared the Uchee bridge
(where foot locomotion was difficult,
the road being almost impassable),
we had almost concluded the game
was lost. We made a last dash, how
ever, and played our last trump,
knowing this to be a point where a
comparatively small force could hold
its own against superior numbers.
We raised a real old rebel yell as we
dashed on the bridge, which created
the impression that wo had led them
into an ambuscade. They halted, to
send out a reeonnoiteriug party. This
gave us a little time, and wo em
ployed it to good advantage, us wo
gathered together on the farther side
of the swamp. “Our little army”
looked used up and unhappy. “Don
Casur” was missing. Our steeds were
blown, and still nine miles to travel,
in a hurry; but knowing the “battle
was not always to the strong; the
race not always to the swift," we
trusted to luck and moved. Our tir
ing had been heard along the road,
and we soon begun to overtake farm
ers with their wagons hurrying to
I town. Tim roads were so blocked
i that they wore almost impassable.
’ Tho enemy were How thundering in
our rear, and tilings looked squally.
I By porscveruiiou our army passed,
[ and wo were soon attending strictly
!to business. Bysome unaccountable
| circumstance we overtook pur cou
rier, and, singular to relate, every
man-“ Possum” among the rest felt
| called upon to cany the “reliable in
i formation” to town at the earliest
possiblo moment. Fast and furious
two piled the spur, but to no avail.
! Tho enemy gained on ns, und their
proximity was decidedly uncomfort
able. We had now ridden to within
five miles of town. Tho roads wore
In worse condition, and refugees were
more numerous. The advance of the
enemy was within fifty yards of the
rear of our party. “Possum” brought
up tlio reur guard. It was now "pull
Dick, pull daddy,” and Billy Wilson
catch tho hindmost. We had arrived
where the road ran through or across
j a ravine, and our course was blocked
' by various und sundry collections,
I hurriedly unloaded from some re
treating wagons. “Possum” saw the
difficult passage, and had an eye also
to our pursuers. We were in a di
lemma. Ho “Possum” took to the
woods rather than surrender, li was
from the frying-pan into the lire,
however, as a party of the enemy,
flanking the ravine, fired upon us,
and a crippled arm was the result.
By strategy and good running, "Pos
sum” and myself succeeded in reach
ing town, where we found nine of tho
advanced couriers lmd brought the
“reliable informalion.” ‘DonCiesar’
arrived a few days later, he having
made a masterly flank movement ear
ly in the race. The record of the time
■made in the race wus lost in the ex
citement produced by the tight at Co
lumbus.
This description does not do the
subject justice, Messrs. Editors, but
one of you being present and taking
a conspicuous part, will recognize the
main facts.
Hoping this will set “Possum’s”
conduct in a proper light, T am yours,
Bear Gi abd.
A itii) of linin'-
Columbus and the surrounding
country, still stand a good chance to
get u thrifty foreign population. Mr.
J. 15. Sou mitt, an Englishman, now
residing in Atlanta, is on a visit to
Columbus with a view to seeing the
prospect, of settling emigrants among
us. He was born and reared iu Eng
land, and with a good family inllu
cnee in that country, lie is able to
control a great number of immi
grants. If he can secure any number
of land owners to offer a part of their
lauds cheap, lie can find it to his in
terest to settle among us, and use his
best endeavors to settle our country
with the farmers of England, Ireland,
Wales and Switzerland. We hope he
will succeed in on-operating with the
Granges and farmers, and tints bring
among us a large foreign working
population, who will cultivate our
lands, buy them, and make the whole
country prosperous.
The Times has advanced the idea,
and Mr. Hearratt. promises to be a
great co-worker In the interest of this
section.
We give below a sample of New
England hospitality. The Yankees
“came down like a wolf on the fold”
to teach us manners, put down chiv
alry, and reconstruct our social hab
its. They quarreled with us because
we would not emulate tho peasant in
the faille, and warm tlie serpent that
lie might defame that which is too
sacred for the carpet-bagger's appre
ciation, the domestic! circle of n pure
Southern home. Our remarks are
confined entirely to the carpet-bag
ger class. No wonder that they, who
j attach so much importance to a vo
j tired Tanner ns to pay *tt7 for the
' rent of a picture to hang in his room,
, should regard us us cemi-civilized be
' cause wo would scorn sneli snolibish-
I ness.
“The visit of Grant ami his Cabinet
! to the Lexington and Concord Cen
tennial has developed some peculiar
features of a festive nature. The
distinguished party was cam! for at
the Revere Hotel in Boston four days,
and tile cost, of the President’s keep
wassl2o, while Secretaries Belknap,
Robeson, Jewell, and some others
fed on lesser meat, and were charged
| for at but. $m per day. Secretary Del
ano was put. up at $lB per day. he
| having apparently slept, smoked,
bathed, anu eaten more than any of
his eo-laborers. Their wines and
cigars cost tffitts. 25, extra meals sl2,
and $5 was tho charge for each fire.
Carrying the President’s trunk from
the depot to the hotel cost $3.25, and
.it was not a Saratoga edifice. Gen.
Babcock, of the suite, left a water
faucet open iu bis bed room and dam
aged SIOO worth, which was an extra
ordinary proceeding, he being super
intendent. of the Washington city ae
queduet, ami presumably acquainted
with the eccentricities of faucets and
[ water generally. Their strawberries
were $3.50 per quart, and S4BO was
the figure for flowers. A picture was
rented to hung in the President's
room for SSO, and sl7 insurance paid
ou it. Altogether, however, there
appears to have been more assurance
than insurance connected with tlie
whole matter.
