A difficulty between two of our sub

caused a deal of soriaaiion on the street,
and a gentleman here from a neighbor.,
ing town Was uiged be a friend to put
■sonic protection in his pocket to be well
prepared in case the spirit of chivalry
became contagious, his friend atthe same
time ramming a derringer, as the gen
tleman supposed, into his back pants
pocket. The gentleman, though forced
to take the weapon under protest, felt
of the bulk, and believing he had a
genuine fire-arm about his person prnn
ced into the excited crowd with a pro~
found feeling of safety. When all was
screue he went to deliver his weapon —
not needed—with thanks to his friend,
and to his surprise and chagrin laid out
on the table a brass barrel faucet. An
other encounter was with some effort
suppressed.

The Truth.
Editor Calhoun Times :
The public doubtless noticed a com
munication in your paper about two
weeks since over the signature of W.
R. Rankin, when that gentleman pre
fixes his card with tho expression that
“no one can regret more sincerely the
necessity and motive which prompts
this article than the undersigned.”
Notf, Mr. Editor, a man may regret
a necessity, but it is certainly strange
that a man who proposes to deal fairly
with his neighbor before the public
can regret his motiye. Mark the lan
guage, charity would teach us that mo
tives should always be pure and never
to be bad.
Mr. Rankin may think that the par
ty to whom he refeis (Mr. 1 Hopper)
feels or did feel that the confidence re,.
po3ed in him as an attorney had been
violated. This I know nothing of, and
Mr. Rankin ought to bo tho judge of
the matter as to whether he was faith
ful to his client—whether he ever did
him any legal service for the amount
which he required and was paid in ad
vance to him. Mr. Rankin may have
his own ideas of extortion, and it
seems that these ideas must be based
upon vague rumor. I propose here to
give to the public a plain statement of
facts in reference to my own connec
tion and that of others with the case
against M. F. Hopper, the man al
luded to in the artiele of Mr. Rankin.
I further state that in giving these
facts I must materially differ with Mr*.
Rankin’s history of the ease. I will
refer the public to the plain truth and
then they can be the judges and de*
termine whether myself or any one else
attacked by Rankin have extorted from
Mr. Hopper or„persecuted him in the
least.
Mr. Hopper was arrested on the
fourth day of April, 1877, and at my
suscrestion. Some days before the
said fourth of April, 1 was shown a
letter by Mr. 0. C. llardin from T. 11.
Adams, of Tennessee. This letter
stated the fact that 31. F. Hopper had
run away from near Farmington, Teun.,
and taken with him a single sister of
said Hardin, that he (Hopper) had sto*
len a horse and wagon and about
eighty dollars in money from said Ad
ams and others. This letter was di
rected to O. C. llardin. Hardin re
quested me after reading the letter to
watch out for Hopper, and if he should
come to Calhoun to have him arrested.
I thought it my duty as a citizen to
put on foot a proceeding to bring this
man Hopper to justice. Hopper did
come to Calhoun, and 1 went to
Esquire Johnson and made, the affida
vit which was written by him, and upon
which ha (Johnson) made out a war
rant, and Ilnpper was arrested- Feel
ing by the letter above referred to that
I was authorized on good grounds to do
this and prosecute the case for said T.
It. Adams I after making the affidavit
employed T. C. Milner, an honest, true
and upright attorney to represent the
prosecution of the caso that might be
against said Hopper, and will state here
that I never employed any other attor
ney than Mr. Milner, unless Mr Alii
ner’s partner, Col. Fain, might be con"
sidered employed on account of his re
lationship as a partner of Mr. Milner.
Col. Fain being at that time absent Mr.
Rankin says that in my affidavit of the
4th of April I ssid I intended to make
application to the Governor of Georgia
for the arrest of said Hopper that he
might be detained the time required by
law for the requisition of the Governor
of Tennessee. This I declare was my
intention, and I proceeded to follow the
requirements of the law in the case. I
at once wrote and telegraphed to 31r.
T. R. Adams, whose property or mon
ey this man Hopper was supposed to
I have *aken. On the sth of April I
learned that the affidavit first made by
me and the warrant produced on the
same was deficient and did not follow
strictly thte requirement of the statute.
I was informed of this by my attor
ney, Mr. Milner, who told me that he
would make out another affidavit and
warrant, have the first dismissed anu
have the arrest of Hopper made under
and by virtue of the last, all of which
was done, and done in the best of faith.
As to the declaration that T intended to
apply to the Governor of Georgia, etc ,
there can be no imputation against me
in the mind of any fair-minded man
that I intended when I so stated to
commit a wrong against the liberty of
Hopper, and no one would dare say
that I did not have the right r.o aban
don that intention. Now I will give
the history of the abandonment of the
prosecution by me, and give the facts
as to Mr. Rankin's wonderful and'ques
tionuble ghost, or, if, you pleaso big
Bonanza.
As I said in good faith I telegraphed
and wrote to T. R. Adams, Farmington,
Tcnn. On Friday evening, the sth of
April I received the following telegram,
after intimations and promises should I
prosecute the expense of prosecution
would be pail to me, and my trouble in
vindicating the violated law would be
all that I was out :
“Shclbyville, Tenn., April 6, 1877.
The said M. F. Hopper is guilty of
all the charges contained in the Hardin
letter, and it he can bo bro ught back
without any expense to mo, then 1 would
like to have.hiui brought back.
[Signed] T. R. Adams.”
This telegram received by mo with
one sent and expenses of sending first
by private hand near twenty miles from
the telegraph office to 3lr. Adams, at
torneys’ fees, and other expenses had
all been paid by me. I proposed “to go
no further with my aid in the matter,
in the interest of another Slate,
unless my expenses were 4 paid.—
Not being bound to do .so un
der the laws of Georgia as ease's are
here prosecuted, and not so bound in
law to act after a warrant might issue,
I consequently proposed, or said in the
presence of my attorney employed, that
after it appeared that Adams would not
go to tho expensg of prosecuting and
paying expenses, that on payment of
my expenses I would not pioceed fur
ther, as no law required me to do it, aut
that l should either have my expenses
paid or I would take Hopper under a
requisition back to Adams in Tennessee,
and demand under the authority with
which I acted my full expenses, as I had
understood the agreement as coming
from Mr. Adams through Hardin. I
here state that I was informed that
there was no law that required me to
prosecute tho matter further against
Hopper though I had every reason to
believe he was guilty. I let this fact
be known, and here I desire to state
that there is no truth in the declaration
that Col. W. J. Cantrell was my attor
ney in the matter at any time, and I
further state on authority from my at
torney, T. C. Milner, that on the morn
ing of the sth of April, when Hopper
was brought to the Court House that
he had delivered to the Sheriff, 31r.
Taylor, as my attorney anew warrant
in strict accordance with the statute as
made and provided in such eases, that
he had instructed the Sheriff that tire
original or first warrant would be dis P
missed, and upon its dismissal the Sher
iff was instructed to execute anew one
just handed to him. Mr. Milner says
hr told Gob Cantrell as a brother attor
neys should the case be called in his ab*
senca at his office (to which place he
was called) to represent him as is usual
with brother*attorneys, and have the.
first warrant dismissed. So it is plain
that (jul. Cantrell was not my attorney,
b it did what he was requested to do by
a brother attorney. Mr. W. -Tay
lor, the Sheriff, will and does state that
hr never knew Col. Cantrell as an attor
ney for the prosecution. Cel.. Cantrell ■
may have known that I would abandon
the prosecution with my expenses paid.
Mi. Taylor farther tells me that M. F.
Hopper, while a prisoner, a day beforp
his release, spoke to him in reference to
getting someone e se than Mr. Rankin
to represent him, as Mr. Rankin had
gotten ten dollars from him, and that
ho had never been to him, asked Mr.
Taylor where Rankin was, when 3lr.
Taylor told him he really did not know,
but thought Rankin was on a ‘‘bust.”
In the interview with Mr. Hopper in
reference to his wanting someone else
he (Taylor) told Hopper he had heard
an attorney say that he would get him
out for twenty-five dollars, when Hop
per said 1 want you to bring him to
me. 31r. Taylor says that this
attorney was Col. Joe. Connell. 3lr.
Taylor says he went down ilo the Court
House, where Col. McConnell keeps his
office, did not find him, went out in
front of tho Court House, saw Col. W.
•J. Cantrell on the streets, call and to him
‘and told bim what Hopper had desired.
Taylor says Cantrell then told him that
he would call the next morning and see
the prisoner. 3lr. Hopper (001. Can.,
troll says the same) says Col. Cantrell
did call the next morning rather late,
and did have au interview with the
prisoner, (Hopper) and in the preaenoe
of the Sheriff, at which time both Tay
lor, the Sheriff, and Col. W. J. Can*
trell state (thisbeing the only interview
between Hopper aud Cantrell about ar
rangement to get Hopper out of jail.j
that there was no declarations by Col.
Cantrell that he was offered a fee of
anyamount on the other side, and Can
trell says he never did make such a
statement to the prisoner. Both Can*
trell and Taylor do state that the fol -
lowing is the conversation that to ik
place between Messrs Cantrell at.d
Hopper : Col. Cantrell stepped in aad
said to Hopper, I see you are Lere yet.
Hopper replied, yes,and that he wanted
to get out, and asked Cautrell if he
could not get him out, when Cantrell
told him yes, and asked Hopper what
he would give him. Hopper stated
that ho did not have much to give.—
Cliutrell asked how much. Hopper
stated that he had but little money, but
had a horse and buggy (both old) which
he had partially sold or contraited to
Mr. Ellis for thirty or thirty five dol
lars, that he would give him, the horse
and buggy and 810 and pay all costs in
the case, which prop sition Cantre 1 ac-
cented, came aud saw me and found out
the expenses of the prosecuting foes if
attorney and stable bill, where the horse
was put before the arrest of Hopper, all
of which amounted to as much as the
old horse and buggy was worth, with
the 810 in cash, all of which was turn-’
ed over u> me as a settlement, Col. Can
trell to my certain knowledge, not rt
taining one cent of said amount, but
after becoming counsel lor Hopper
agreed that the whole amount to have
been received by him go to pay expen
pcs. Mr. Taylor, the Sheriff, says he
never to’d the prisoner that he could
get a lawyer who would release him in
t,wo hours. Col. Cantrell says he never
professed any unusual sympathy for the
criminal, and was no more anxious for
his freedom from iati than could be nat
ural, arising from a fellow feeling fur'
the human family, and finally his rb'i
gation as attorney. Mr. Taylor de=>
clarcs that he neither told Rankin or
any one e'se that he had no knowledge
of the circumstance under which Hop
per was released, but when Rankin
came to hi n (the Sheriff) on Sunday
morning he asked him where Hopper
was, when he told Rankin he did not
t ■
kni'W, Rinkin asked him if he was nut
uet, when Taylor told him he was, and
told him that he was out by an order of
the court, which was correct. it is
positrveLy|uot true as stated in Rankin’s
article thifc Hopper was turned out
about,daak on Saturday evening, but it
can be proven by many witnesses that
he was turned out in the afternoon
about two hours by sun, and passed
Mr. Dillard’s, at Craneater before sun
down that evening, about six miles
from town on the way to his relations ;
it is also the truth that Mr. Ellis did
know how the horse left his stable, and
is not true that the horse was taken
out of the stable on Saturday night, but
was on Sunday mrttnisg taken from the
stable optenty|ittd fairts, and acerd|ng
t# bontrahtf- Jo\uln chn deny flic right
of 31r. Taylor to go for Mr. Hardin, and
for pay, at the instance of the prisoner.
I further state that the proper papers
were made out by Mr. Milner, my at
torney, to send to Gov. Colquitt that
the prisoner might, under authority
from him, be held 20 days to await a
requisition from the Governor of Ten
nessee. I have this further to say that
I have in my plain, simple way stated
the facts of the case, acknowledging
my inability to write with that finished
style common to lawyers, or one who has
been an editor. Tiros. A Foster.

the above allele which has reference to
myself, and find it to b§ perfectly true

Dear Times :
As “Moses” has quit getting up the
ripples from this place l will try my
hand, but my writings wiM be as my
name, quite small.
Wheat harvesting is over in this sec
tion, and preparation is being n#ade|fcyr
threshing. There wi’l be no troble for
farmers about here in getting their
wheat threshed, judging from the num
ber of new threshers received at this
place.
Messrs. J. and J. W. Hill will soon
start a rew steam thresher for the ac
commodation of the farming public. I
wish them much success, as they are
both clever and enterprising gentlemeu
31 r. John Hill made the wool fly last
fall with his steaui carder, and now he
is prepared to make the straw and chaff
fly from wheat.
Wheat seems to be good in this sec
tion, but 1 understand there is much of
it damaged in the shock by the contin
ued rains and cloudy weather since it
has bean cut|b_yi mfcul'J.; • > - v
Corn :is fihl although the
most of it is small. Cotton is also
looking very nice, or what I have seen
is, but as i am so small I cannot get
around to see but little, and 1 hope to
sec still less next year, for it cannot
pav the farmers North Georgia to
raise cotton, besides, heretofore cotton
has' been King, but not so now j it is
King com. Those that raised corn to
sell last year made money. There has
been u large demand for corn this spring
and summer than I have known in
North Georgia for i seyeijg! yaars. ... ,
i understand a farmer, not far; fre-w
Resaca, is to bo tried for his life for
feeding harvest hands on garr fish. —
Hold up awh’le, gouts, until Posy gels
over his last trial.
Our quiet little town has not been
quite so dull here of late. Two young
men came to town not long since to cut
up and have their own way. The 31ar
shal came up pretty soon and arrested
one of them, when the other said he
should not go to the calaboose, but the.
31arshal summoned help,*and fObn suc
ceeded : u quieting them down after all
their threats to shoot. It is said by
some that the Marshal hides when there
is a row in town. Sail in gentlemen,
the 31arshal is a good-natured fellow,
and does not euro how much you ta'k.
He says, “He that fights and funs
away will live to fight another day.”
Our steam saw mill is not runuing tor
awhile now for want of logs, but I sup
pose the Colonel, as “Moses” says, will
not let it 1 AdteMyng) • •. < j • ,
Say, Col. Bradford,* what\> become of

lißjtckbefries and red bugs are be
coming, plentiful now-a-days.
The potato bug has taken possession
of mnft*of the gardens in our town. —
Some have saved their gardens so far
by running the bug out daily with a
bush.
Since wheat harvest commenced the
fish is getting some rest. The fisher
men have found other employ mop t. j -
I understand there is ff'gaol prospect,
of our flouring mill starting up soon
and will be run regularly. I hope it
will be.

not always, cured by its use. Noth

will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use AVill prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling oil* and
consequently prevent baldness. F'ree
from those deleterious substances
which make some preparations dan
gerous and injurious to the hair, the
Vigor can only benefit but not harm
it. If wanted lYierely for a
HAIR DRESSING,

ubTel Containing noilhei* oil nor
dve, it does not soil white cambric,
and yet lasts long on the hair, giving
it a rich, glossy lustre and a grateful
perfume.
