It A1 LIU) AD ()u TR A GE —N ARR 0 W IjSCA PE.- As the train on the West Point Point last evening was approaching Me-. Wright's Station, a few miles below Fast point, the cow-catcher knocked off a bar of iron eighteen feet long, which had b ecu laid across the track, and two miles further on the ’ same train was greeted with a shower of stones and pieces of rock, one of which came through the window striking a passenger on the arm. A lamenable disaster was providen tially frustrated. Tho human fiend who thus willfully places in peril the lives of men and innocent women and children may escape direct punishment for their misdeeds, but their future punishment must be left to their consciences. We hope however to see them brought to speedy justice.— Era. 2 d. Agricultural Meeting. The meeting of the Agricultural Club, at the Court House on ‘Tuesday, was not so fully attended ;:s it should have been ; vet considering the time that hap been lost on account of rain, it was well that the farms should recieve attention on such days as Tuesday. The question, “ as to the best mode of cultivating corn and cotton,” was pretty thoroughly discussed, and novel ideas and suggestions advanced, relative t» the selection of seed corn. They will doutless awaken thought, and in duce experiment. We are inclined to the opinion that the fanners of our county will, by scien tific cultivation, realize in their grain products, and in the culture of clover and the grasses, far greater sources of revenue than they can, by any method of cultivation, realize from cotton. Our soil and climate, we think, are not pe culiarly adapted to the growth of the staple; and, besides too much of it is raised anyhow, to be a product of profit to the planter. Let the people abandon their mania for cotton, and turn their whole attention to the growth of grain and grass crops, and raising stock, and they will be a great deal better off. As far advanced as wo may think wo are to ward a proper cultivation of our lands, in order to the full dcvclopement of their latent richness, we are still very far be hind. Our.soil, it is well known, is pe culiarly fitted to the growth of clover. Deep tillage is essential to the healthy developement of any, especially root crops. Clover, while esteemed an at mospheric plant, penetrates deep and It is through eiiemthc' eies are carried into the earth, reviving its exhausted productive ties. The only essential to a very abundant clover crop, and a c msequent increased fertility of your land, is deep, deep plowing.* You cannot plow too deep. Coosawattee Bridge. Wc understand that a petition signed by many citizens of the County; is to be presented to the Craudjurv at this term of the Court, aching that they recom mend the building of a County bridge across the t ’osawattee river somewhere between the mouth of the SiLquoy creek and New Town ferry. This we are inclined to think is a right step in the right direction, and a public enterprise that eminently deserves the favorable consideration of the Grand jury. Every facility of access to the commercial cen ter of a County offered the public re dounds to the interest of all the people in the County. From information wc have recivcd. we believe the people can not too strongly urge the matter t ill a bridge is built. What will the Grand jury say? Let us hear. Buy your Ink from Parker <£• Freeman, and don’t ‘loaf” in the Printing office. That’s -business" in a business manner. Letter from Hon. Nelson Tift. Albany, Ga., March 21, 1871. To five (dibit ni < f the 2 d Contfrctsional District: When I accepted yonr nomination as the candidate of the Democratic party for election, to represent you in Con gress. it was with a purpose single to your interests and my duty, and the course which I now adopt is dictated by the safne motives. In December last, as shown by the of ficial returns, l was elected to the 41st Congress by a majority of 500 votes, and to the 42d Congress by a majority of SUA votes. By means which have been explained in House Miscellaneous document, No. 68, parts Ist 2d aud 3d, 41st Congress, 3d session, certificates of of election were issued by Governor Bullock, to my opoonet, It. 11. Whiteley. for both the 41st and 42d Congress, up on which he has been seated. 1 gave notice of contest for the scat in the 41st Congress, and subscquctly for the 42d Congress, while there was yet bops that the law would be vindi cated. After much delay and difficulty, T procured and placed before the Com mittee of Elections, certified copies of the election returns, convincing them that 1 was elected, and that the certifi cate was wrongfully issued to Mr White ley. But a majority of the committee declined to report the facts, and permit ted the wrong to be continued in the 41st, and 42d Congress. This is but a repetition of the injus tice of the Radical majority in cases from other States whore Radical Gover nors have usurped the rights of the peo ple and given certificates of election Jto the minority candidates of their own party — they have been seated arid retained their seats in spite of contests which have shown that they were not elected, Judging from my experience and these facts, and from the facility which has already been shown by our oppo nents in Sumter and Pulaski counties in procuring salsa testimony to suit their purpose —as shown in the document above referred to —it would, in my opin ion, be a waste of time and means to again prove by respectable citizens what has been already demonstrated, only to be denied by unscrupulous Radical par tisans whose testimony would again, as heretofore, be taken as a sufficient pre text to justify the wrong which has been committed. With this conviction, I cannot wil lingly subject our people to the excite ment. loss of time and means, and loss of labor from the crops which a long contest in the different counties in the district would necessarily involve, with no prospect of redress. I regret the of ficial demoralization and wrong which, in my judgment, makes this course proper. But sucli wrongs find tlueir compensa tion iii arousing the people to the dan gers which threaten their institutions, and will thus aid the movement now in progress, which in 1872 will drive the Radical party from power, regenerate the Government and bring peace and prOSpOrHy to eouutry In again taking my place in the ranks by your side. I desire to say, that during my brief official career, next to the consciousness of having performed my duty faithfully, according to the best of my judgment and ability, your confidence and approval has been my best reward, and will ever be remem bered with gratitude. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, Nelson Tift. [For the Calhoun Times. THE SO NO HA DEBATE. BY E. B. L. Last Saturday night ’Lwas April first. And the Sonora folks were merry.

GEN. .T. O. IMBODEX IN THE GALAXY. When night closed upon the grand, scene, our army was repulsed. Silence and gloom pervaded our camp. We knew that the day was gone against us. but the extent of the disaster was not known except in high quarters, 'ihe carnage of tho day was reported to have been frightful, but our army was notin retraat, and we all surmised that with to-morrow’s dawn would come a re newal of the struggle; and we knew that if such was the case those who had n >t been in the fight would have their full share in the honors and dangers of the next day. All felt and appreciated the momentous consequences of final defeat or victory on that great field. Those considerations made that, to us, one of those solemn, awful nights that every one who fought through our long war sometimes experienced before a great battl 3. Few camp-fires enlivened the scene. It was a warm summer’s night, and the weary soldiers were lying in groups up on the luxuriant grass of the mead avs we occupied, discussing the events of the day, or watching that their horses did not straggle off in browsing around About 11 o’clock a horseman approach ed and delivered a message from Gen. Lee, that he wished to see me immedi ately. I mounted at once, and accom panied by Lieut. McPhil, of my' staff, and guided by the courier, rede about two miles towards Gettysburg, where half a dozen small tents on the roadside were pointed out as General Lee’s Headquarters f>r tho night. He was not there, but I was informed that I would find him with General A. P. Hill, half a mile further on. On reaching the place indicated a flickering, solitary candle, visible through the open front of a common tent, showed where Gen erals Lee aud hill were seated on camp stools with a county map spread upon their knees, and engaged in a low and earnest conversati in. They e axel speak ing as I approached, and, after the or dinary salutations, General Lee directed me to go to his headquarters and wait for him. He did not return until about 1 o’clock, when he came riding alone at a slow walk'and evidently wrapped in profound thought. There was not even a sentinel on du ty, and no one of his staff was .about The moon was high in the heavens, shed ding a f.ood of soft livery light, almost as bright as day, upon the scene. When he approached and saw us.he spoke,rein ed up his horse,and essayed to dismount. The effort to do so displayed s.a much physical exhaustion that I stepped for ward to assist him, but before I reached him he had alighted. He threw his arm across Ills saddle to rest himself, and, fixing his eyes upon the ground, leaned in silence upon his equally wea ry horse, the two forming a striking group, rs motionless as a statue Tim moon shown te.ir upon Tils na s!~e rea- t tirc-s, and revealed an expression of sad ness 1 had never seen upon that fine countenance before, in any ol’ the vicis situdes of the war through which he had passed. I waited for him to speak until the silence became painful and em barrassing, when, to break it, and change the current of his thoughts, I remarked in a sypathetic tone, and inallusicn to his great fatigue : “General, this has been a hard day on you.” This attracted his attention. He looked up and replied mournfully : “Yes, it has been a Wd. sad day to us.” and immediately relapsed into his thoughtful mood and attitude. Being unwilling again to intrude up; n his re flections, 1 said no more. After a min ute or two he suddenly straightened up to his full height, and turning to me with more animation, energy, and ex citement of manner than 1 had ever seen in him before, he addressed me in a voice tremulous with cinotUn, and said : “General I never saw troops behave more magnificently than Pickett’s divi sion of Virginians did to-day in their grand chnjgc upon the enemy. And if they had been supported as they were to have been—but for some reasons not yet fully explained to me, they were not —we would have held the position they so gloriously won at such a fearful loss of noble lives, aud the day would have been ours.” After a moment he added in a tone almost of agony: “Too bad ! Too bad 1 Oh. too bad !” I never shall forget, as long as I live, his language and his manner, and his appearance and expression of mental suf fering. Altogether, it was a scene that talize, had one been "Tori'an at eVy pr¥sc4iT to witness it. In a little whilePhe called up a ser vant from his sleep to take his horse; spoke mournfully by name of several of his friends who had fallen during the day, and when a candle had been light ed invited me alone into his tent, where, as soon as we were seated, he remarked : “We must return to Virginia- As many of our poor wounded as uossible, must be taken home. I have sent for you. because your men are fresh, to guard the trains back to Virginia.” The following cx-Confederate officers occupy scats in the present House of Representatives at Washington : P.
