signed "Gil." and dated s.Chesterfieid

false statements contained in that article,
for there is scarcely y word OF truth III
the whole Of it; but there is one state
ment which. as good citizens, having the
welfare of the whole community at heart,
we desire to notice, and that is this:
1.-THE murderers of this (the Melton)
fumily, are known here to every Demo-
ornt and many Republicans. Now, we
pronounce this statement utterly und
unqualifiedly false, for we arc all Demo
oruts, aud none of us know anything
whatever as to who we're the murderers
of the Meltons, aud we are all we'll salts
fled that the statement is gross libel not
only upon 'every Democrat" but also
upon ''inany Republicans" of this Coun.
ty.
Our main object. however, is to learn
from you who the author Of this com.
mnnication is, in order that we may
have him bound over to testify mt the
next term OF the Court of Sessions, in
regard to this subject. about which lie
seems to know go much, SO that the on
thors of this horrible tragedy may bo
brought to trial.

THE CASE OF THE REV. NJ D. WooD.
We learu from our recent Atlnntn ex-
changes that this case came up before
Judge Hopkins. on Tuesday. the Sd in
stnnt, ON motion for new trial. and,
after hearing the argument of counsel,
the motion was refused, and the defend
ant was sentenced to twenty years i'm
prisonment in the penitentiary. This
is the maximum punishment for seduc-
ton under the Georgia code. Judge
Hopkins must, therefore. not only have
been satisfied of the gnilt Of the defend
ant. but must have regarded it as most
aggravated case of moral depravity. We
learn, further, that the Atlanta Presby-
terry, OF which Mr.. Wood was member,
convened at his church in Decutur, on
the 29th ultimo, and. by their sentence,
deposed him from the ministry and sus-
pended him from the church.
