Wff/MAMM, J LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION In City nutl Mnburlm, •-•- • 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. mtkOJI'N MAUI. a “r it si iUru’tin ei o us 'J. 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. Ilea!la of l 01. I.eivls TiiinUii. “Col.
