A TALF. OF REBEL CRUELTY.- - mong
the visitors at the Freedmen's Bureau
on Monday, soliciting relief was a . foot
less negro, whose story almost surpasses
belief were it not-that its authenticity
is established beyond a doubt by corro
borative.evidence. His story, in sub
stance, is as follows:
"Just previous to the breaking onto f
the war, he was employed by a Dr. Lee,
living, near Washington, in- Maryland,
who compensated him for his services, ,
he being a freeman.. In 1849 the negro
was persuaded by the Doctor to accom-•
pony him to Georgia, from which State
he afterwards removed to Tennessee,
wher3 he kept the Knoxville Hotel. In
the, town of that name, in 1863, this same
Dr. Lee hired the negro to a Capt. N.
G. Gammon, a Quartermaster in the
Confederate States army at J onesbo-.
rough. Here he was employed for eight
or ten months, when he attempted to
escape to our lines, in doing which he
was apprehended and returned to Capt.
G., who immediately took him in Pers
on to Dr. Williams, in charge of the
general hospital at that place, and or
dered him ( Dr. W.,) to amputate the
legs of the ' d—d nigger,' to prevent
him from running away. 7n compliance
with this demand 'his iegs were that
night amputated just- aboie the ankles;
and his legs left undressed by the sur
geon. hi the morning Dr. W., on visi
ting,the hospital, found the negro still
alive, and after expressing his, surprise
with an oath said that he had intended
to*kill him. He then ordered the negro
to the house
.. of, an old slave woman,
where the negro was, found recovering
from the aniputation, on the entry of
our troops,',',
BEAUTY IN W MIEN.-A beautiful face

in dress and habits, and the third is

likes in a lady is untidiness, slovenly
habits and affectation. There is a me
dium between prudery and relaxed. be
havior, which a man appreciates almost
by instinct. Place a man of genial dis
position, with a disengaged heart, in
the society of a woman of beauty, sense
and spirit—not too much of the latter—
and the chances are of immediately fall

wretch cannot avoid it,,and in his fran

MARIETTA,. SATVRDAY MORNING,: St"Ty 4 II . B.EX:2.',: - : .1865,i
Scene in a Treedman's Court
It is very -difficult fo,r the
. white - men
, ,
of Tennessee:to-learn that ‘ colc;red men
have 'rights w i hich they are bonnd.to
spect, but they are taking ,lessons now
from 'Courts of Justice established by
GenerafFiek, Assistant boramissioner
of the Freedman's Bureau. ''A . very in
structive and quite amusing lesson was
given the other day. An old and high
ly respected citizen of Giles county, ,
named Abernethy = a good _Methodist,
by the way--refused to pay his colored
laborers the wages he bad agreed to pay
them, and, as a last resort, two of the
most intelligent of his employees came
into the Freedmen's Court, made oath
to the contract and to the fact of nod
payment, and an order was, accordingly
issued to bring the venerable patriarch
into court to answer. When the order
reached the old gentleman he was as
tonished.l3eyond measure and, doubtless
would not have deigned to respond to
it haitnot a guard - been present to en
force it. His neighbors of course, were
greatly excited.
The venerable old Abernethy arrest
ed and ordered to report forthwith at
Nashville! Dispatches were sent to
the city,-and When he arrived he was
met at the depot and escorted to Gen.
Fish's headquarters by a respectable
body of old citizens whose woe-begone
countenances indicated the deep dis
gust and horror which swelled their chi
valrous bosoms. Arrived at headquar
ters
Abernethy—ls this Gen. Fisk ?
Gen. F.—Yes, sir. ' •
should like to know what 1 am
brought liere for.
Gen. F.—Very well, give me your
name and I can probably fnforin you.
A.—illy name is Abernethy, sir.
- Gen. F.—Abernethy. Yes, I remem
ber. Two citizens of Giles county,
neiglbors of yours, Mt. A. have appear
ed and'made oath to a very grave com
plaint against you. -
A.—Oitizens o f Giles county . ! N e igh
bors of mine ! ! Good heavens who can
it be!!!
"I will read the declaration," said the
General, as he took the- document from
a pigeon hole and began : "Joseph and
Paul A.bernethy, of the county of Giles,
in the State of Tennessee, being duly
sworn, do- testify," etc., etc. As the
reading proceeded, the old gentlemen's
eyes fairly bulged out, and be looked
the very picture of amazement. At
length, tinable to restrain himself any
longer, he exclaimed, "Lor'< bless my
soul, General, therriarn't my neighbors,
them's my niggahs." "You are mistak
en, Mr. A.;" replied the,generul, "there
are no such persons-in Tennessee now
as 'your niggers;' -Joseph and Paul
Abernethy are citize'ns - of Tennesseb,
and one of them claims even it nearer
relation to ycio ;Wand the striking resein
blame he bears to you gives counte
nance to the claim,"
This home thrnit cut the old man to
the heart, and he covered his face with
his•hands, bowing his head for eonie
timd. At length he said : "Well, Gen
eral; What are you going to do about
it ?" "I am going to do justice," he re
plied. "Do you owe these' gentlemen,
the amount they claim ? 'lf you do, You
must pay it." .
The . ' old gentleman came down, at
once, acknow.ledged the debt, and prom
ised to Call and settle it the next day.
The next day he came, paid the debt in
full, and entered into a written contract
with his employees for the future.
Another caso illustrates the per7ert,
ed moral sense of
, many of the people.
A daughter of Hon. Felix Grandy came
into court to produre an order for the
return of "her nigger "—a little girl Of
ten or twelve years, a girl she had rais:
ed from infancy—who had been taken
away from her and brought tO the city
by its cruel father! The lady really
seemed to think' that a black parent who
would take away " her nigger " and ex-
pose it even for a day to the contamina
ting society of the , freedmen of Nashville,
was a barbarian, a brute—almost a devil 1
