Risouaceful. —On Saturday night
our streets were the scene of considera
ble boistorousness and deviltry—caused
doubtlessly, by a too free use of whis
key. Among other things, the bucket
was removed from the public well on
* ° llr * House street, and the Council
hell removed from the Court House
grounds.
e trust the newly elected Council
will inaugurate such regulations as will
present these disorders in the future.—
•t is a duty our public officers owe to
themselves, their families, and their com
munity, to take cognizance of disorder
and crime, and severely punish violators
'>f the law, when it is possible to identi
fy them; and we trust they will never
“i backward in the performance of these
duties no matter how unpleasant it
ma y sometimes prove.

Shocking Death —A Man Liter
ally Torn to Pieces. —When the
up-passenger train arrived at our depot
on Monday last, it was made known
that a man had been run over and
killed near Young’s station, some three
miles from town, and numbers of people
gathered around the train, to witness
the evidences of the terrible accident,
as displayed by the blood-spattered
wheels, axles, &c.
We joined a number of citizens, who
repaired to the scene of the accident,
and there beheld the most completely
hashed human body we ever beheld. —
Brains, flesh, pieces of bones, &c., were
scattered along the track for fifty yards,
and a look at the ghostly remains creat
ed the impression that there was not a
whole bone left of what, a few minutes
before, was a strong healthy man. The
fact that an eye, severed from all sur
rounding flesh and muscle, was found
some feet from any other part of the
remains will give some idea of the ter
ribly mangled condition of the b >dy.
A thorough search of the body and
clothing, disclosed no further evidence
of the man’s identity, than a small scrap
of paper, with needles or pins sticking
in it, and having written upon it, “John
W. Farnum.”
When first seen by the engineer, the
man was lying, face-downward, with his
head toward the engine. The train was
running at full passenger speed, and
though the engine was reversed as soon
as possible, it was impossible to stop be
fore the most of the cars had passed
over the unfortunate man. llis scatter
ed remains were gathered together and
buried near the scene of his tragic end.
We afterwards learned that the de
ceased was apparently an Irishman, and
that he passed through Calhoun during
the forenoon, and purchased a bottle of
whisky—which, doubtless, was the cause
of his death, as lie was seen staggering
along the track, a short time previous
to the arrival of the passenger train.
Another sad, sad, warning to those
unfortunate people whose strange tastes
leads them to indulge in that most dan
gerous and potent enemy of the devil—

Aaron Alpeora Speaks.
Aaron Alpeoria Bradley, the African
Wahoo, and member of the Georgia
Senate from Sing Sing prison, is on the
war path again, because he was beaten
for congress, and issues the following
pronunciamento to the General Assembly
Verily Aaron is irrepressible.
General Assembly of Georgia. —
Geutlemen, the time for assembling the
General Assembly, under the constitu
tion of G eorgia, will take place, Wednes
day, January 11th, 1871, and to con
tinue forty days there from said date;
and under the constitution there cannot
be but one regular meeting of the Legis
lature in 1871, except und§r the Pro
clamation of the Governor, in the event
that the old members refuse or neglect
to meet within forty days from Wednes
day, January 11th. 1871; and this they
cannot do without a violation of their
oaths; because they continue the only
legal members of the General Assembly
until others are elected under constitu
tional laws, and qualified as required by
existing laws of the State of Georgia.
No 2. The new elected members of j
the General Assembly cannot meet and
qualify under the constitution of Geor
gia, nor under the unconstitutional law
under which they were elected, until,
November, 1871. Then, one and all,
rally to a man, Wednesday next, and do
your duty to Georgia, regardless of
political bins and financial knava:
Xo. 3. The regular term of forty days
will have expired before November.
1871. Then, there can be ; no Legal
Meeting of the newly elected members
ot the General Assembly, or immolu
ment of any office in or out of the State,
under that law before November, 1871,
not even after, nor under the Proclama
tion of the Governor calling the newly
elected members together.
Hence, we see and know, this law to
be uull and void. Because it makes a
new or another time and term for the
General Assembly.
. A. ALPEORA BRADLEY.
Barnum recently told a correspon
dent, alluding to his proposed now
traveling show: “I am nearly dead
with ennui. I have been playing the
gentleman for four years, with plenty of
money and nothing to do, and 1 am
nearly dead. I don’t want money; I
mean to give away every dollar I make.
But I must work or die.”
Mrs. Allen Rogers, of Columbus,
woke up Thursday morning and found
; her little inlaut lying dead by her side.

ALABAMA IMMIGRANT ASSOCIATION,
Montgomery, Alabama.
Read what the Montgomery city papers
that know the gentlemen, who are the mana
gers and incorporators of this Association,
have to say as to their reliability and honesty:
(From the Daily Alabama Stair Journal.')
The American people are strictly a people
of fortune ; they like to take a chance at a big
fortune lor a small sum of money. This scheme
affords them this opportunity. The first
award and the highest is$25,<KMJ. The low
est is ten dollars. The price of tickets is on
ly two dollars. M hen was such an opportu
nity presented to make a “pile ’ on such a
small investment ? The incorporators of the
Association arc Julicn Homans and Otto
Sellers, Jr., of New York, and J. G. Stokes
and R. Greene, of Montgomery. For the
benefit of the public, we will state’that the As
sociation is perfectly solvent—the gentlemen
who eonipose it are of character and integri
ty. and we believe they will see to it that the
project is honestly and faithfully carried out.
(/■row: the Montgomery Daily MttU )
The incorporators are two wed-fcfiown and
wt-a'tby New Yorkers, Missis. OUo Soli erf, Jr .
and Julien Homans, and Messis J. G Wtokt-sa'id
R Greene, of Mon'gorrery. These geutbmen
