The board appointed to investigate the col
ision between the United States steamer ITALIA
pooSa and the schooner Lowell, finds that the
Tallapoosa did all in her power to avoid the
collision, and complied with the laws in every
respect, but that the Lowell violated sections SO
and "a, of the navigation laws, and consequent
y the blame for the collision rests with the
schooner The finding of the court is approved
by the Secretary of the Navy.

COMMUNICATED.
That Coon Hunt near 9S.

Mr.. EDrroR: In these dull times
it is surprising how people Of every
rank and employment will be at
tracted by any little frivilous ex-
citement. Loafing is the common
practice among merchants, clerks
lawyers, and those who have no
profession or employment. Such
at least is the state Of affairs in
our town. I hope it is not the
case in your growing city. Well,
it was said the other day that
some one struggling through the
low lands Of Wilson's Creek had
found a Coon's nest, and day
and hour appointed to institute an
attact upon the Coon's in their
quiet and peaceful home. At the
hour the eager crowd
consisting Of farmers, clerks, mer-
chants, wheel wrights, blacksmith,
furniture dealer, trial justice,
preacher and loafers, assembled
on the grounds, formed the line Of
battle and planned the attack.
The residence was soon found by
a small coon sleeping on q limb Of
a large gum tree. After consulta-
ton it was agreed to cut down the
tree in the hope that others we're
concealed inside the tree, and a
sufficient number would be found
to contend we'll with the poodle,
the bench-leg flee, and the red cur,
which was expected to do the
principal fighting. Axes were OBJ
tanned and the work Of falling the
gum, two and half feet in diam
eter, was begun. After much cut
ting, grunting, sweating, talking
meanwhile the little coon sleeping,
seeming undisturbed by the pres
ence and vociferous noise OF his
assailants }, the tree fell. The lit
tie coon ran down the falling tree
and made off toward the creek at
a slow pace AS if he wanted to
stop and rub his eyes, being hard
ly awake. Amid the yells and ex-
citing screams Of the pnrsueing
crowd, one Of the canine tribe ran
up and uneeremoniously took hold

A VOICE FROM LIBERTY. THE
LESSON TO BE DRAWN FROM 1T.

The "Sentinep' Of last week
contained a letter, written by q
citizens Of Liberty regarding the
Savannah Valley Railroad. This
correspondent is anxious about
the matter, and his desire is, that
Liberty and Pickcns should unite,
and aid in the extension Of this
great enterprise. He wants it to
tap the G.. G.. G. & G. r. r., at the
Court House. Pickens in this
event would become most fortu-
nate.
The writer Of the article, how
ever, seems to realize Easley's en-
terprisc, and her very progressive
spirit, fearing that if Liberty and
Pickens should clay quietly upon
their oars,' "Easfey will secure
the price, Our enterprising lit
tic town surely must have a very
cnviablc reputation. Most assur-
cdly, her character is such as to
warrant the establishment Of

Now if our powers are consider
cd great abroad, let us give per
petuity to the fact, and ever strive
most earnestly to advance the in
tcrests Of our town by engaging

rebound to it's local good.

ing revived. Read a report CON

THE GREELY RESCUE.

Commander ". 6. SchIeys Report of the Ey-
petition to ReScue the Greely Sufferers and the
Condition in Whici, lie Fcund tie Survivors.
The report OF Commander Schcy has been
made to the Secretary of the Navy. After
reciting the orders under which the ex-
petition for the relief of the Greedy party
sailed aud the hardships and perils en-
countered on the voyage, he describes the
finding of the survivors as follows: Lieut.
Greedy was found in his sleeping bag, his body
Inclined forward, and head resting upon his
left hand. The book of Common Prayer was
open and held in his right hand. Heappeared
to be reading prayers to Private Connell, whose
condition was most desperate and critical. He
was cold to the waist; all sensation of hunger
gone; was speechless and almost breathless;
his eyes were fixed and CLASSY. Indeed his
weakness was such that it was with difficulty
he swallowed the stimulants given him by Drs.
Green and Ames; his jaws had dropped; his
heart was barely pulsating, and his body tenn
perature very low.
This tender scene of helpless, almost fam
ished officer cOnsOiing dying companion was
in itself one that brought tears to the eyes of
the strongest and stOutest of those who stood
about them on the mcrciful errand Of relief
iDOugn physically B!ie weakest, Lieut..
was mentally the most vigorous of his party.
SeTg'ts Brainerd and Fredcricks and Hospital
Steward Bierderbick were extremely weak,
and hardly able to stand. Serg't Ellison was
found in his sleeping bag, where had lain help
less and hopeless for months, with hands and
feet frozen off. Serg't Long was very much
reduced, though in somewhat better condition
than some OF the others, his position as hunter
making it necessary to increase slightly his
pittaDce of food to maintain his strength. The
condition of the camp was in keeping with the
scene inside the tents-desperate and Gesolate.
The dead were buried on a ridge back of the
camp about 40 rods. They were exhumed,
placed in alcohol in the tanks, and so carried to
st. Johns, n. f. In preparing the bodies of
the dead for transportation in alcohol, it was
found that the bodies of Lieut.. Kisling-
bury and Serg'ts Jewell and Raston Privates
Whistler, Henry and Ellis had been cut, and
the feshy parts removed to q greater or less
extent. All other bodies were found intact.
The return trip was made amid much danger
From the time of entering May 49, until leav-
ing the ice there was not a moment when the
shi Ups were out OF danger. Commander Schley
highly commends Commander Coffin and Lieut.
Emory for their skill and judgment in the per-
fcrmance of their duties. He also commends
the excellent and merit0rious conduct of the
officers and crews of the various ships, and SAYS
their selection was faultless. The few punish
ments were caused entirely by rum. The re-
port concludes by paying the usual compii-
ments to the Secretary of the Navy for his
support in carrying out the objects of the ex-
petition.
