Amnssmsnts In tho Loyal Worth.

The dull proceedings of the Bergen
County Court, which is being held at the
courthouse in Hackensack, New Jersey,
were Monday enlivened by the recital OF
a revolving case of cruelty in which a
young girl, only thirteen years of age,
was almost beaten to death. The de-
tails are sickening and abhorrent in the
extreme, and were it not that the bruised
and manned child appeared in court,
with the CHASTITY scars upon her person,
could scarcely be believed. A brace OF
fiends in human form, named Henry and
Margaret Vanderbilt, living in Pleasant
Vile, about six miles from Hackensack,
came last Mondsy to New York ard
made application to the Asylum
for Orphans and Destitute Children, un-
der the management of the Sisters Of
Charity, for young girl to perform
general homework They took with
them to their home bright, intelligent
girl named Mary Ann Farrell, who for
the last eleven months they have tortured
in the most inhuman manner, without
any cause In fact, they batted her
about like a shuttlecock, the husband
using broomstick and the wife an iron
dipper. At times he would take her into
the cellar, and there have the child
stripped naked and tied up by the wrists,
he would lash her with horsewhip until
the blood trickIed down her limbs; not
satisfied with this, he would compel her
to wash her bleeding wounds with brine,
thereby increasing the agony. During all
this time she never spoke to human be-
ing. Whenever persons visited the house
she was locked up in the kitchen until
they had departed. On several occasions
she has attempted TO escape, but was
never successful until last Tuesday eve
ming, when she left the house by the back
way. All night long she wandered about
the fields, her only covering being short
chemise and sack, without any shoes,
stockings or drawers She was found in
the morning by sister; in-law Of Justice

FROM GEORGIA.
The Negro Meeting at Augusta
Resolutions Adopted-Speech
of Governor Jenkins.


AUGUSTA, GA, April l3-A mass
meeting of freedmen was held to-day.
About one thousand present Resolu-
tons we're read, the substance of which
was as follows: That the loyal citizens
of Georgia should give their united and
continued support to the Union and Re-
publican party that there should be no
distinction on account Of race or color in
the enjoyment of political rights; that
the right to vote gives them the right TO
sit on juries; that corporal punishment
should be abolished, it being relic of
barbarism; that the widows and orphans
of those who died crushing the rebellion
are entitled to the nations protection
and gratitude, and that the national debt
is sacred obligation.
J. L. Shepton, colored, spoke in sup
port of the resolutions, but his remarks
were conservative.
Gov. jenkins understood the object Of
the meeting to be for the purpose of adj
vising and consulting with the colored
people, in order to form a common plat
form on which white and black could Sc
cure equal justice in harmony together.
He was surprised to find the meeting
called merely for party purposes, and
therefore spoke reluctantly and under
disadvantages. Had he known that the
programme had been previously ar
ranged, be would not have been present.
He had been politely invited, however,
and he did not feel able to decline. de
spoke, not tor the purpose Of defeating
the object of the resolutions, but OF ad-
yancing the best interests of the colored
race. He advised them to be sober and
industrious, and exercise the right OF
franchise judiciously; to avoid wicked
and designing men who were in their
midst to SOW discord and strife he be-
lieved the good and intelligent white
men of the South would do justice to
the negroes; be would do all in his power
to improve the race in a social and po-
liticai scale; there is, and should be, no
antagonism between the races; their in
terests are the same, and should be in
mutual confidence aud harmony; he
earnestly hoped both races would be
friends and co-laborers in the working
out of the great problem Of regenerating
the South.
judges Stearns and Hilyard followed,
and we're in favor of harmony and good

party, which, with preamble and reso-
lutions, were adopted.
