A TUHBU ACCIDENT.

Day before yesterday, at tho rock
quarry at Broom head A Alexander, near
tha Barracks, a frightful accident oc
ourred. The quariy waa bciag worked
by convict! 'trader the management of

a white la* earned Alexander, aud a
negro convict wore blasting. After fill
ing the hple wjfh powder and igniting
the faze, it failed to explode, wlmo they
returned to readjust it' While working
at it the powder eaoght fire, making a
tremendous explosion. Both arms of
young Alexander were broken, and both
eyes, it is feared, put oat. The negro
was badly burnt. Alexander haa only
haw in the chain gang for a week or so.

About one hour of the valuable time
of the Court, police and tbis reporter,
waa consumed iu Iffttuiog to an attempt
on tho part of the pastor aud memben
of a nigger congregation to prove that
the nigger ball* given by Wm. Mc-
Keever waa a nuiaance. Volumes of
testimony were introduced on both
sides, the most powerful and con
clusive of which was a negro {for
tho defence, who gave it
solemn fact that more noise was created
at tbe negro church than he ever heard
at the ball. He hod seen four to six men
bringing happy and noisy souls out of
the church by tbe heels, and he never
saw such a procedure at the ball. The
proprietor of tho dance house might, with
greater consistency, present the church
folks for uunoyiug his customers. This
was a stunning argument. But the gen-
eral character of the witnesses for the
defense was bad, and McKecvcr was or
dered to stop his balls and pay coats of
this prosecution.

was Jiot of ?he anthracite kind, nor was
he cold-hourted. He run his hand-cart
on the side-walk and plead ignorunce of
the law. Hu was a poor man and a man

from Lowry, who told him to git out.—
And therewith justice sheathed her
sword, took off her bandage, locked up
her scales nnd adjourned the court.
Cut o’* Letter.
Don't fail to read the very able letter
of “Cato,” in our paper of this morning.
It lays bare tho unprincipled condpct
and aims of the New Departures. He
gives names find facts, and makes charges
which moan something.
The “Wild IlVMt” after Office.
Wo know of no better rule by which
to ascertain a man's total unfitness for
the oflioes of Mayor or Councilman, than
the fact of his attempting to push him
self into these positions.
They ought to be places of honor-
conferred upon men for their real merits
—their real integrity and ability, and to
servo the public, honestly and fuithiully;
and when we see a man blowing his own
trumpet, canvassing tho streets, and tak
ing an active part in Ward meetings sole
ly for the purpose of foisting himself
upon the publio, and getting into plaoe,
we take it for granted that he either
wants the offioo for the take of the salary,
or that he has an “axe to grind” at pub
lie expense, which will make a raid upon
the Treasury—either of which renders
him unfit for the office, and nn worthy of
the support of an honest people, who
workffor their, bread, auJ who ought not to
be taxed to pay salaries to such men. All
such should bo reproved for their egotism
and assuinaay.
Wc hope,that in tho nominations to be
made, our very best citizens will bo chos
en. Men who deserve thcne'pliiccs very
seldom seek them. Those who do not
seek or desire tho offices, but can, by
earnest solicitation of tho i>oople, bo in
duccd to accept them, will bo far more
likely to prove themselves faithful and
competent, than thoso who earnestly
seek tho office. This latter class too
often have unworthy motives to prompt
them; and it may be set down as a rule
to be relied upon at all times, that t)u>se
engaged iu tho “wild hunt,” will do the
pabl ic no good, mill should bo kept out

reduction of freight and passenger
transportation to the several lairs in
Georgia.
Mr. Ecbola was requested to act for all,
using their names officially. Mr. Echols
prepared a letter of application to the
superintendents of different railroads and
steamship companies, setting fortli the
fact that a reduction of ratea would se
cure a large attendance on the several
fairs. All of the railroads in Georgia
readily acceded to transport at half
rotes, and Mr. Echols informs us that in
t few days he will publish a list of a large
number of railroads agreeing to the half-
rate arrangement. He hopes to secure
lialf-rato tickets from Boston, New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore, Buffalo, Chica
go, Cincinnati. Louioville, St. Louis and
New Orleans,and all intermediate points.
Aaotb.r Lawyer.
Captain John Milledge has been re
tained by tbe State to assist Hon. B. H.
Hill, CoL Farrow and Judge Underwood,
in the investigation now being made in
to the alleged State Road frauds. Capt.
M. is an active young lawyer, of an in
quiring turn of mind, and we guess he
will go to the bottom of tho cases if there
is any bottom to them.

The |.HIllnr Trial.
The trial of Millar, concerned in tho
State Hoad muddle, which was postponed
from last Friday till yesterday, after con
sultation among tho counsel of both
sides, it was agreed to postpone tlio cose
indefinitely, and Judge Hopkins there
fore granted a postponement until somo
day next mouth, of which, notice will be
given. _
Took m Fit.
A somewhat noted character named
Violet North, was up before Justice
Lynes yesterday for some offense, and
tho Judge Bent her to jail. Just as she
got outside the court room she tumbled
over with what appeared to bo a very
hard fit. But it wouldn’t win, and five
or six men were completely exhausted
after they had put her on a dray for the
lock up.
The Market*.
Trade yesterday was a little quiet,
though in some articles the demand was
brisk.
Bacon, after remaining at low’ figures
for so loug a time, bos taken a start up
wards. One strange feature in this arti
cle is that the Western markets quote
shoulders to w’ithin & quarter of a cent of
sides. This is something unusual, and
the oulv plausible theory given for it is
that such a demand has been made for
cheap meats it has run shoulders up to
the proscut figures. It cannot remain at
this long. In this market, of course, it
is not that way—the difference here being
from } to 1 cent. Tlio demand is good.
Flour is excited in tho Western market,
an advance of 50 couta a barrel haviug
taken place within a few days.
This Company got its factory iuto suc
cessful operation lost Monday and com
menced the manufacture of varus for the
market It has four thousand spindles
in operation and is turning out a quality
of yarns which very few factories can
furnish.
About a year ago Mr. R. M. Clarke
commenced tho establishment of this
factory. A good site, with an abund
ance of water, was selected at Flat Shoals,
tlio machinery bought, the necessary
buildings erected and everything put in
eonqH'teut ‘working order. It has
quired arduous and persistent labor and
a large amount of capital; but Mr. Clarke,
and those associated with him, were equal
to the emergency, and now they have
reached that gratifying period of their
progress, which denotes success.
Wh wsro show n yesterday, hy Me. Wm.
H. Clarke, a Sample of the yarns spun et
this mill. Tho thread waa spun from
cotton grown by Mr. Clarko last year,
end at tho time it was grown he had no
idea that it would ever bo manufactured
into thread upon the very lot where it
is produced.
This company will manufacture noth
ing but very fine threads, aud will find
an exclusive market in Philadelphia. Mr.
Jos. liippey, the Buperiatendent, isao
experienced manufacturer, having been
engaged successfully in the business for
many years.
Tkc Orphan’*. Home.
We publish to-day an interesting letter
from one of the children at the Orphans’
Home at Nororose. Everybody will read
it with deep interest. Verily that great
work—the establishment of a home for
the orphan—is one of which Dr. Boring
may feel proud, and all who have con
tributed to it may well congratulate
themselves on the good work in which
they have assisted. Here the children
are taught to work—are educated—have
religious training—have a home with all
its comforts and attractions—a real, gen
uine home—where they do not feel like
guests at a stranger’s house, but are
really of home!
How many of these would be forsaken
outcasts, and become the devotees of
sin, but bat for this beneficent institu
tion. Let the country rejoice that so
much good is being done with such small
means.
Those who have the enterprise iu band
are now raising means to erect a monu-
mantal clmrch at Norcross in which the
children can worship. Let every man
having a philanthropic heart assist iu
this good work.
Tkc Fair mt Dalton,
The second annual fair of the North
Georgia Agricultural and Mechanical As
sociation, at Dalton, will commence next
Tuesday and continue four days. Tho
people are looking out for a large num
her of visitors and exhibitors and have
enlarged their accommodations with
view to making all comfortable. The
track has been put in first-rate condition,
and exhibitors are encouraged by a largo
list of liberal, regular and special pre
miums.
Tho fairs which the people of that city
and vicinity get up are highly creditable
and profitable to those who attend. They
know how to do the work, and do the
same with a hearty will, which does not
stop short of complete success. Mr. L.
D. Palmer, the efficient Secretary of the
Association, is the right man in the right
place, a systematic business man, whose
energy, diligence and worth, are impress
od upon all with whom he transacts any
business. We shall try to be on hand
this fair for, if the weather be good,
will really be enjoyable.
and I told them it wan none of their
business what it Avas 1” This boy is not
unlike hundreds of business men, who
will probably call him a fool for not
telling what he had to sell. They are
actually doing the same thing on a much
larger scale than did the boy, by not ad
vertising in the papers. The way to
make business brisk is to advertise. If
you have anything to sell, let the publio
know all about it, and then respectfully
invite them to purchase. If you intro
duce any new tiling, advertise it. And
when you do advertise, don’t do it as
though you were ashamed to let the pub
lie know you ure engaged in business.
Let your advertising be constant and un
tiring. First one method then another,
until vour name and business becomes a
household word in every family for miles
around. When you do this, success will
have been accomplished. So savs a sen
sible editor, all of which this local en
dorses.

Editors Sun: The clause in the pub
lished regulations iu our premium list
relative to entries reads, “ For articles
completing for premiums each $2 00.”
The public will please notice that the
following is the proper construction of
the above clause:
Iu either department $2 00 pays for
many entries us the exhibitor may wish
to make. But $2 00 entitles the exhibi
tor to compete for premiums iu one de
partment ouly.
To illustrate: Any one paying to ex
hibit in the department of live stock
would pay $2 00 additional to enter an
article for a premium in the department
of Manufactured articles. Very respect

HOWE
Lock-Stitcli Sewing
A re world renowned for durability
and Bimplicity of machinery, tho perfection of
the tension*, and the unparalleled wide range of
work they aro capable of performing without change
or re-adjustment.
At tho Groat
Exposition Universalle
in Paris, IRC,7, they were awardod the Highest Prizo
—a Missive Gold Modal—over 82 competitor*, and
HOWE as the original inventor uf the Sewing Ma
chine.
The growing appreciation of their characteristic
excellence by the intelligent people of this country
wa* clearly shown by the unprecedented sale of tho
Howe Sewing Machine
during the past year, being far in excess of those of
any other one patent.
More than ONE THOUSAND of these ex-
cellcnt machines are in daily use in Georgia, and of
this very largo number a single case of dissatisfac
tion cannot bo lound. They make the
‘Howe, or Lock-Stitch’
which has the same beautiful appearance on either
aide of the fabris sewed, and they ar* the only ma
chines that make this beautiful stitch to perfection.
Tho office haa been recently established at tho
Warranted for 3 Years

ty ot plain and ornamental tewing.
An efficient lady operator will be in constant at
