trial takes place, we hope that an example | 'J
will be set in this case for others to go hy. J v

RACE TROUBLES IN GEORGIA. j ?
The turbulent conduct of a few negroes in i ^
Columbia couutv has brought upon them a
sudden aud terrible retribution. The Augus- | ^
ta Chronicle of the 12th instant says the ori- | ^
gin of the trouble dates some time back. The > t
negroes of district No. 3 in Columbia county, ] a
distant about twenty or twenty-two miles from j a
Augusta, began a month or two ago, to act in j v
such a mauner as to cause serious alarm upon j
the part of the whites. They purchased arms, i tj
orgauized a company and commeuced to drill. ; a
The citizens of the district did not object to i ^
thp fnrmnfinn of this nnmnanv. nor hftd thev i i_
any right to object, if it had appeared that it
was gotten up as all the other military com- ^
pauies in the State have been?for the purpose
of amusement. But it soon became evi- ^
dent that this organization was really a de- tj
elaration of war, and was to be so considered. ^
Violent and repeated threats were constantly ^
made against the whites, in language whose j
import could not be misconstrued. About!
two weeks ago, Thos. Boyd, a colored man, i
who had joined the company and drilled with ^
it regularly, resigned his membership. He
then took occasion to inform his employer, I jj
privately, that he had joined the company for I
the purpose of amusement, but he had soon
discovered that the object of the organization
was something widely different. Pie said
that they were preparing for war with the ?
whites, and as he did not sympathize with a
their feeliugs, he had left them. The ring- r
leaders of the movement were four colored n
men?Jake Doggett, Delaney Doggett (broth- p
ers,) Fountain Doggett, (their father,) and a s
man named Ted. The four lived together, q
and pretended to cultivate a small farm? 0
though their principal object was the sowing tj
of discord between the races. Fountain Dog- a
gett repeatedly stated that the negroes were t(
now in a position to defend themselves, and *
if they needed assistance that it had been w
promised by the militia of Edgefield county, a
South Carolina, who were only separated from a
them by the Savannah river. They pretended e
to be afraid of Mr. Robert Larakin, because j
several years ago that gentleman had had w
trouble with some of them. In order to give g
them no excuse for a further persistence in Ct
their seditious conduct, the citizens requested SJ
Mr. Lamkin to go away for a while, which n
request he cheerfully and immediately com- y
plied with?going, we believe, to Macon. But ^
this concession seemed to have no effect, ex- C1
cept to make the negroes worse and more in- tj
subordinate. A few days ago, while Mr. Mi- ^
nor Luke was at work iu his field, unarmed, 5
Delaney Doggett approached, apparently for a
the express purpose of provoking a collision, p
He accosted Mr. Luke in the most violent ^
and profane language. He declared that his p
people were armed now, and that they intend- 0(
ed to have revenge. He said the Ku-Klux p
had killed the negroes in 1870, and that they ei
ware going to have blood for blood. Threats ?
wrere made against Mr. Luke's life, and the p
lives of several gentlemen residing in the p
neghborhood. A meeting of the company sj
had been called for, and it was feared that on Ci
that dav thev micht attemnt to execute their u
j j o? r 11
threatened vengeance. . The whites had, there- jj
fore, determined to meet them on that occa- C(
sicin, to remonstrate with them and attempt ^
to bring them to reason. But on Thursday, p
two citizens, alarmed by the threats which n
had been made against their lives, had warrants
taken out against the four colored men
above mentioned. Friday morning, between g
daylight and eight o'clock, these warrants C(
were executed by Deputy Sheriff Peter a
Wright and a small posse of men. The ne- tl
groes were arrested, and officers and prisoners ,t
started for Appling Courthouse. When they ei
reached Maj, Moody Burt's mill, one of the
prisouers?Delaney Doggett?refused to go
any further. He stopped short in the road,
and declared that he would not obey any d?d white
man ; he was as good as they were, and
he would be d?d if they should carry him
to jail. The deputy sheriff ordered him to h
come on, and, upon his again refusiug, the of- 11
ficer, apprehending resistance, fired upon him
with his shot gun and killed him. At the o:
same time the three other prisoners escaped, P
and were shot and killed while running. b
Another account says that on Friday the n
deputy sheriff, haviug warrants in his possession
charging Fountain Doggett, Delaney,
Doggett, Sake Doggett and Eliott Doggett \
with riotous conduct, summoned a posse and b
proceeded to arrest the parties. As the 1(
sheriff and posse were approaching the house X|
of the negroes above named, the negroes ran
for the house, but the sheriff and posse being on
horseback, beat them, and succeeded in
arresting them. They found in the house d
tnonv (HitK wpll lnnrlpH with hnplrchnf- A tVpr
arresting the parties the deputy sheriffstarted 1
to the nearest justice (Thomas Novell.) Some
of the prisoners were tied. They complained c<
that the rope was too tight. The sheriff untied
them. They commenced whispering to
each other. Pretty soon, in a dense thicket, E
the leader of the gang said he'd be damned if ?
white men should arrest him. At this they g
all broke to run. The sheriff and posse fired s
with double barrel shot guns and killed every A
one of them. Justice Novell, acting coroner,
summoned a jury and held an inquest over
the bodies. The jury returned a verdict of
justifiable homicide in discharge of duty.
Music by Telegraph.?Mr. Elisha Gray,
of Chicago, well known in the electric tele- ^
graph world, has succeeded almost beyond (.
his own anticipations, in perfecting an instru- ^
ruent which will convey sound by electricity ?
over an unbroken current of extraordinary
length without the aid of automatic repeaters.
In the ordinary transmission of messages over
telegraph wires to points at long distances, a e
message is generally repeated by automaticworking
instruments about 500 miles, in order
to renew the current of electricity. Mr. w
Gray has transmitted sounds, which are dis- M
tinctly audible at the receiving point over an | ?
unbroken circuit of 2,400 miles. It is one of j
the greatest discoveries made since the early ^
days of Morse. Such noted electricians as j,
\f w Pfnonntf on vo if f a t\??aifa i\
iUl* WUigC ? 1 ^OVAJLI/ caj O it gVCO IU | V
what all electricians have long agreed upon, | "
that we know little at present of the possbili- i ^
ties of the future of electric science. The i e:
writer has heard music played on a small me- |j
lodeon, or piauo key-board, transmitted t|
through an unbroken circuit of 2,400 miles, j tl
and reproduced on a violin attached to the I f
receiving end of the wire. Mr. Gray played j c
"Hail Columbia," "The Star Spangled Ban- j c
ner," "God Save the Queen," "Yankee Doo- a
die," and other well-known airs, and they
were unmistakably repeated, note for note, on
the violin which lay on a table near at hand.
Even an accidental false note was immediate- r
ly detected on the violin. The apparatus, by j
means of which this feat is accomplished, has ^
been named by Mr. Gray the telephone, or, I
an instrument designed for the purpose of||
transmitting sound to distance. It consists ; ^
of three general parts; the transmitting in- I
strumeut, the conducting wire, and the appa- 1
rnt.na fnr ror.eivincr the sound at. that, distant F
point. The transmitting apparatus consists ; j,
of a key-board having a number of electro- i
magnets corresponding with the number of 1
keys on the board, to which are attached vi- ^
brating tongues or reed3, tuned to a musical c
scale. Any one of these tongues can be separately
set in motion by depressing the key
corresponding to it. Thus a tune may be t
played by manipulating the keys in the same s
way aB those of an ordinary piano or rnelo-j ,
deon. The music, produced entirely by elec- t
tricity, of these notes is so distinctly audible '
in the next room that, in spite of much talk- (
ing, there is no difficulty in determining what
tune the manipulator is playing.

A Pigeon Roost Extraordinary.?From Benzine
county, Michigan, comes a pigeon
story which beats all that have been told be-1 {
fore, either in Scripture or out of it. The'
0031 where the pigeons congregate in such un
old millions, i9 called "Betsey River nesting.
Hie tract is about sixteen miles long and thre
vide. Every bough is occupied bv a dozei
ie9ts and a hundred birds, and from morninj
ill night the air whirrs with ceaseless wing
;oing and coming. Between two hundrei
ind tifty and four hundred men have beei
ugaged for over six weeks constantly killinj
,ud trapping. As the old birds leave or ar
lestroyed, as many young ones take thei
daces. There are three regular "flights" i
lay?two "tom-flight9" and one "hen-flight.
it early dawn the male birds set out flying t
he east and north to seek a breakfast of seed
nd berries, ten, twenty or fifty miles away
?d by six or half-past six the sky is blacl
nth the departing birds. An hour later no
bird is to be seen, but toward eight o'clocl
he squadrons return in cloulds. Theshotgui
nd the net are the principal weapons use*
y the hunter. The biggest catch of the yea
as been eight hundred birds, though it is 01
ecord that one trapper secured nearly tliii
sen hundred at one strike. This probabl;
rould have been exceeded by a gentleman, i
sw days ago, when he struck into a flight s<

ions may be formed when itissaid that prob
bly a thousand bushels each of salt and con
ave been used in preparing the feed bed
liis season. The New York State Sports
len's Association has taken 40,000 or 45,001

ies as many or more dead ones.
THE "WHITE LEAGUE."
An attempt is making to organize a "Whit<
jeague" in Louisiana. Every white man ii
parish is asked to become a member ; if In
efuses, he is told that henceforth he must ex
ect to be treated as a negro. Happily sorcn
f the leading newspapers of the State an
peaking out boldly against the organization
'he New Orleans Times declares that parf
rganizatious, founded on mere race distinc
ions, are unwise and inexpedient, aud that ii
closely contested election it will be difficul
5 prevent the hot-headed zealots of th<
White League" from bringing on a conflic
hich a majority of the people would deplor
nd from the results of which only the peace
ble and industrious voters and property-hold
rs would suffer. Nor would this be all
ust now a sentiment is abroad in the Nortl
rhich is demanding reform in the Southeri
tate Governments. The Baltimore Ameri
in, an influential Republican newspaper
tys: "The honest people of all parties an
jady to compel the expulsion of men liki
loses and Durell from the places which thei
ave disgraced. As far as the Federal powei
in be used in the Southern States it must bi
irown in the scale against thieves and plun
erers, no matter whether they claim to b<
Republicans or not. If a man known to b<
rascal is a candidate for any responsibli
lace, the Federal officeholders must not giv<
ira their personal, much less their official sup
ort. If the result is the election of the Dem
cratic candidates, there will be no complain
rovided they prove to be capable, honest anc
fficient officers." But, the same paper adds
any attempt to coerce men into voting foi
articular persons by threats or violence oi
ersonal proscription will be met with a re
istance which will Dot cease until the politi
al party which employs such methods shal
ave been utterly routed." The signs of th<
imes are good, the prospect for reform is
omparatively bright. There is no room

PROTECT YOUR BUILDINGS!
Which may be done with one-fourth the usual expense
by using Glines'
PATENT SLATE ROOFING PAINT !
A ROOF can be covered with a cheap shingle,
and by Application of this slate be made to
last from twenty to twenty-five years. Old roofs
can be patched and coated, looking much better,
and lasting longer than new shingles without the
slate, for
I ONE-THIRD THE COST OF RE-SHINGLING.
The expense of slating new shingles is only
| about the cost of simply laying them. The Paint
| is FIREPROOF against sparks or flying embers,
as may be easily tested by any one, and appears
I from the fact that Insurance Companies make
| nearly the
SAME TARIFF AS FOR SLATED ROOFS.
j For tin and iron it has no eaual, as it expands
! by heat, contracts by cold, and never cracks nor
| scales. For fences it is particularly adapted, as it
will not corrode in the most exposed places. Roofs
covered with Tar Sheathing Felt can be made
water-tight at a small expense. The Slate Paint
IS EXTREMELY CHEAP!
Two gallons will cover a hundred square feet of
shingle roof, or over four hundred of tin or iron.
Price ready for use is 80 cents per gallon.
NO TAR IS USED IN THIS COMPOSITION,
I Therefore, it does not affect the water from the
roof, if turned off from the cistern before the first
few rains.
On decayed shingles it fills up the holes and
pores, hardons them and gives a new substantial
roof that will last for years. Curled or warped
shingles it brings to their places and keeps them
there. It fills up all holes in Tin or Felt Roofs,
and stops the leaas, one coat being equal to five of
I ordinary paint. The color of the slate when first
applied is dark purple, changing in about a month
to a light uniform slate color, and it is,
TO ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, SLATE.
The Paint has a very heavy body, but it is easily
put on, and although a slow dryer, rain will not
affect it in the least one hour after applying.
Roofs examined, estimates given, and when required
will be thoroughly repaired. Orders respectfully
solicited. All our Paint* arc viixal
ready for use.

and 13th of August.
Tax-payers should be very particular to return
correctly the Quantity of land they owu, as tiie
returns now to be made, stand for five years, and
abatement, on account of errors, can be made
only by the Comptroller-General.
All returns, both real and personal, must be
filed in this office on or before the TWENTIETH
PAY OF AUGUST, next. Otherwise, fifty per
cent, penalty will attach. This will be absolute.
No civil officer can discharge all his duties
without the aid of the good citizens interested
therein. It is the privilege of every tax-payer?
and I hold it to be the duty of each one?to report
to the proper officer, all attempts at evasion of
law, in returning property, either in bulk or in
value, in his section. I earnestly solicit such aid,
and will, in all cases of attempt at such established
evasion, so far as in mv power, enforce the penal
