THE EDGEFIELD LYNCHING. txtenoatinj; Statements which are Made in Behalf of the Accused. (Special to the Xeics and Covner.) Augusta, Ga., Octobcr 22.?This beautiful city is so near to Edgefield and is so intimately connected with the county that no day passes that several Edgefield men arc not seen on HJtS UlllUrdSCVUS S11CC15. n 10 I therefore, to obtain the gossip concerning the Edgefield affairs which rarely finds its ^way iito print. The all-absorbing topic in Edgefield at this time is the lynching of (Jnlbreath, and it mnst be admitted that the statements which are made in Augusta upon the subject change materially the aspect of the deplorable affair. It is asserted that Mr. Culbreath treated his wife with the utmost brutality after her fathers death, and that his conduct was so offensive to the people that it- is surprising that he was not 1 ynchedjat an earlier day. Among liis other ottences, it is saia tnat in a drunken fit he lashed his wife severely with a bug-?y whip, and when remonstrated with by her mother lashed that lady in the same way. As a consequence of his behavior,"a separation took place. Mr. Culbreath, however, continued a surveillance over his wife's actions, and without any reason whatever was furiously jealous. As is known, Mr. Hammond was assassinated in the yard of Mrs. Culbreath's house where he had gone at the request of her son to remain tor the night. One of my informants says that he knows it to be a fact that Mr. Culbreath caused Hammond to be assassinated, and that he was as much the assassin as though he had actually* pulled the trigger. This, at all even;s, was believed in the county and was the immediate cause of the lynching, The people of the county felt that such conduct should be "tolerated no longer, aBd they unwisely took the law into their own hands. An Edgefield man whom I talked with said, with great emphasis, that he held that lynching was never -justifiable, but if ever it was to be justifiable it was so in Gulbreath's case. There are now in Edgefield jail more than thirty persons who are accused of participation in the lynching. The accommodations are altogether insufficient, and the prisoners are threatened with disease by l'eason of the condition of the buildings in which they are confined. They did not apply for bail, but have suffered severely already, and their suffering is not in their confinement alone. The accused form the bulk of the adult male population of two or more townships in Edgefield county. They arc taken j*. ii *- 1 ? xJl? _ i irom ;ueir pianiauous at a uusv seasuu of the year, and in their absence it is impracticable to control the colored laborers, who are filching the cotton from the fields right and left. It is asserted in all seriousness that many families will be deprived of bread aiid meat by the arrest of the accused, all of whom, it is said, are ready to give bail to any amount that may be required. I give these statements in order that the public may know what is said by those who are acquainted with the lynchers, and who feel that the act was so nearly justifiable that there is no reason to keep the accused in jail, and who maintain, further, that the facts to be developed before the grand jnrv or iu open Court will satisfy the public mind that no great wrong has been done. When it is urged that the Courts should have been resorted to, it is shown that the original offences of Culbreath could not have been made the subject of a iudicial investigation without a public scandal. As regards the assassination of Hammond there is a feeling, I am sorry to sav, that whatever the evidence, Cnl ? X r 1 ? J Dl'eaiQ wouiu. not nave ueeu couvicieu, and that lynch law was the only law that would meet his case. The accused are said to be highly respectable, industrious and well-behaved citizens, who would never, save as a last resort, be guiijv of an act of violence of any kind. All this is given to the readers of the Jtfeics and Courier, without comment, and in order that they may know what is the opinion held by those who claim to be familiar with the facts of the case. More Lynchers Committed to Jail. Edgefield, October 22.?Sheriff Onzts brought to jail last night Morgan Dorn, Elbert Dorn, Richard Hammond and W. H. Hammond, charged with being accessories to the Culbreath lynching. He had warrants for two other parties, but could not find them. The sheriff was arrested to-day by Coroner Johnson under a warrant charging him with official misconduct 111 permitting and allowing prisoners to escape. The she rift' gave bond for his appearance at Court. Two prisoners, Collier Hammond and Reuben Johnson, were granted permission last night to go to their respective homes under charge of a constable, the party to return to-night. For this offence another warrant was issued against the sheriff, charging him with maliciously permitting prisoners to escape. He was again arrested and again promptly gave bail. The Salvation Army. The good people of the South will learn with regret aud with feelings of dread and disgust that the so-called "Salvation Army" are accumulating what they call a ''Southern fund," for the purpose of sending a detachment here for the purpose of making converts. They "will come with all their silly parade, brass bands, banners, o'andv uniforms and pernicious nrac tices," with which they falsely affirm they are doing God service and promoting (he cause of Christianity. They have become a public nuisance in all lands, have been pelted and abused by mobs and driven pell mell out of'cities and countries. Now they propose to invade South Carolina and other Southern States, to prove to us through eye and ear that they are a despicable, unmitigated public nuisance, and that the treatment they have received by the populace in Europe and America is in many respects well deserved. "What has the South done that we should be punished thus?? Columbia Becord. Boned to Death, and Restored to Life. I know of a man nearMaxey's, Ga., whc for ten or twelve years was almost a solid sore from head to 'foot. For three years, his appearance being so horribly repulsive, he refused to let any one see him. The disease after eating his flesh, commenced on his skull bones. He tried all doctors and medicines without benefit and no one thouerht he could nsssi blv recover. At last he began the use of B.B. B., and "after usin^ six bottles, his sores were all healed and he was a sound man. He looks just like a mar. who had been burned to death and then restored to life. The best men of the county know of this case,-and several doctors and merchants have spoken ot it as a most wonderful case. JOHN CRAWFORD, Druggist, * Athens, Ga.

CKANT AND JOHNSON. An Improbable Story of the Early Period j of Reconstruction. Chnuncey M. Depew has written to j UOJ. r. u. urant, giving particulars 01 a conversation with Gen. Grant four years ago at a dinner. Mr. Depew says that after President Lincoln was killed and President Johnson inaugurated, the latter wanted to reject the terms given bv Grant to the Confederacy, and wanted all the officers who had left the regular army to take sides with the Confederacy summarily dealt with by court-mamai. rresiaeni Johnson also wanted to take extreme measures with all the leaders of the Confederacy. Grant determined that the terms of the agreement should be adhered to, ancl if there were to be any courts-martial, Gen. Grant would be the first tried, as he intended to stand by the parole. Johnson afterwards changed his views. Grant ascribed Johnson's course to his hatred of the slaveholders, and when the war started, believing in the power of the government, he saw his opportunity to Hofnof (>ia r.onfisftfltft their property, and humiliate their pride. Johnson's absorbing- ambition had been to be received by the slave-holding oligarchy as one of them, as he had not been able to break down the class barrier. While Johnson was lookingfor means to break the agreement o Grant, t he leaders of the oligarchy called on him, and acknowledged that as President of the United States he became, regardless 01 Dirtn, not oiuv one of them, bnt their leader. After this Johnson . became as anxious to save as he had i3een to destroy. President Johnson even wanted Grant to sustain him in a scheme to allow all the States recently in rebellion their full quota of Senators and Representatives, but Grant threatened to drive soch a Congress out of the Capitol a the point of tho bayonet. Johnson afterwards tried to get Grant to go on a mission to Mexico, to get him out of the way, but Grant refused and the matter was dropped. ?A mob of 400 masked and armed men surrounded the jail at Holly Springs, Miss., before daylight on Wednesday morning, overpowered the jruard, broke open the cell of Robert Doxey, a wife murderer, and hanged him. ?The United States District-Attorney at Boston has brought suit against Geo.
