Charlton, a prominent citizen nnd distinguished physician and ex-presi dent of the Georgia Medical society, died Wednesday morning at his residence, in Savannah after a year of consumption. He was a native of Savannah, aged 53 years. Meager details of a mysterious death are reported in Macon. As the story goes, a young lad who was living on Miss A ma son’s place, in Houston oonn’y, near Pow- ersville. was found hanging by the neck, dead, in a barn Wednesday. His name could not be learned nor any further de tails of the strange affair. On last Tuesday night, a short while after dark, us M. R. Chastain and I. L. Ed mondson, jr., of Springfield, were in a bug gy together driving slowly up the roacl, they were instantly met by Heck Edmond son, who was riding rapidly on horseback in the opposite direction. In the collision one of the buggy shafts was thrust through the heart of the horse which Heck was riding, killing the horse instantly and breaking the buggy to pieces. The snow storm of Sunday and Sunday night has caused great, damage around Kingston. The railroad depot and the large cement warehouses at the Howard Hydraulic Cement Works, near here, were crushed completely by the weight of snow. The houses are a complete lost. Colonel Waring had over a thousand barrels of cement, besides a great deal of material, stored. His loss is about $3000. The snow was on an average of three feet deep.

Mr. Levi Clements, of Berrien county, near Ray’s mill, happened to a serious ac cident several days ago.

Moore, near Irondale some ten days ago in a shootingserape with ber husband,which resulted in the killing of Moore after he had shot Baldwin in the leg, died Wednes day. Baldwin is still in jail at Birming ham, not having had a preliminary trial yet. Pickensville has been recently the scene of some excitement. A negro woman gave birth to a child out of wedlock. Her father and perhaps her mother determined to destroy it. It was cut in two parts near the middle of the body and thrown into a creek near by. A rain caused the creek to rise, and it is thought that the portion ot the body found (the lower extremities) was lodged on a sand bar. and when tne creek fell was left exposed, from when tne creek fell was left exposed, from wnicn a dog, with a leg in his mouth came trotting up to the house of a negro!who at.ends Wilkins mill. The mother of the child, her father and mother are in jail sj Carrollton to await trial in the circuit court. The other day a Montgomery lady went to the market house and purchased several pounds of sausage meat. She then went home, and while preparing to cook tne sausage found a heavy plain gold rinj, “} it. Tne ring was considerably scratched and scarred, evidently Laving passed through the sausage mill. A gentleman in the house suggested that it was highlj probable that a negro, while running the machine, had gotten one of his fin S, e , r ' caught and cut off the ring and all. loe suggestion was made, of course, in a play ful spirit of mischief, but the good house wife took it very much to heart. She didn’t think it was at a.l probable, but sue couldn’t bear the idea of eating a sure enough “nigger finger.’’ So she promptly disposed of tne sausage and kept the gold ring. Florid*.

Stone was arrested at the in stance of some of ids victims for obtaining money under false pretenses. His scheme was to sell a man, colored, of course, a set of furniture for $12, collect $1 in cash and orp.otttbe memorandum given the negro with the fl. The furniture was to be ship ped to the purchaser from Palatka. He gave a number of bills, and following is a yebaMm copy of one of them: “Deo. 3rd, IHSli. Mr. 1. P. Mason, bought of li. Bell, one set for 10.00, paid 1.00; balance 11.00. 1. Stone. The bills were all written with f pencil on memorandum slips. He had induced F. I. Mason to assist him in selling sets, for which service he was to give him $10. The following is a copy of the order which lie gave Mason for the $10: “December 3, 1885. Pay to Mr. F, P, Mason the sum of 10 00. P. Stone.” It will be seen that the order if addressed to no one, and that there is no dollar mark before the 10 00, and is therefore worthless. When arrested he telegraphed to H. Bell at Palatka, but Mr. Bell did not seem to be at home, so he got no response. He finally agreed to refund the money he had collected, which he did, and he was allowed to depart. Advice to Mothers.—Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It re lieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural, quiet sleep bv relieving the child from pain, and the little cherub awakes as ’ifit “bright os a button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the glims, allays all pain, relieves wind, regu lates tiie bowels and is the best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether arising from teething or other causes.

Chicago seems to be under the impression that the “Archarnians” is a sort of variety bur lesque, with a ballet and a song and dance team.—Philadelphia Press. Free Trade. The reduction of internal revenue and the taking off of revenne stamps from Pro prietary Medicines, no doubt has largely benefited the consumers,as well as relieving the burden of home manufacturers. Es pecially is this the case with Green’s Au gust Flower and Boschee’s German Syrup, as the reduction of thirty-six cents per dozen, has been added to increase the Bize of the bottles containing these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth more medicine in the 75 cents size. The August Flower for Dyspepsia and Liver Comnlaint, and the German Syrup for Cough and Lung trou bles, have perhaps, the largest sale of any medicines in the world. Tne advantage of Increased size of the bottles will be greatly appreciated by the sick and afflicted, in every town and village in civilized coun tries. Sample bottles for 10 cents remain the same size. , oct!2 d&wly CLINCMAN’S T obacco REMEDIES HE CUNEHAH TOBACCO OIMTMEHT fl»3SBtereranuiB«(ii A , ft.I,.. llou •<*.**.*• I'oiloil In hiva Anal Die fnilwl t<> give for Iirliiiti' . fj'-mlii Tetter Salt* HI-cum .Bnrbcr’h Itch, llinsf- Mwi’ins, Piutplro.
