SECTION OF GEORGIA.
George W. Adams and the Patrons of
0 Husbandry.
Col. George W. AtUms is working as vigor
ously to organize the Patrons of Husbandry
as he usnally does at whatever he undertakes.
There are few' men in the State who has more
vim and determination in pursuing a purpose
than Col. Adams. Bold and outspoken in
the expression of his opinions, he is
looked npon by all who know him
os honest aud sincere, and therefore
carries great weight for whatever he
advocates. JThere is 03 little humbug
in George W. Adams as any man in
Georgia, and we know of no man to whom
the important dnty of organizing this great
power coull haVe been entrusted with higher
assurances of success.
The grange organized in Atlanta on Tues
day is composed of the very best material in
Fnlton county. There is room in every mili
tia district in the county for a grange. We
want at least ten in DeKalb, and would be
glad to have Col. Adams meet us cn some
court day an deliver ns an address on the
subject ;
Col. L. P. Grant having resigned the Presi
dency of the Western Railroad, Col. George
W. Adair has been unanimously elected to
fill his place. We will state that Col.Grant’s
resignation was not due to any misunderstand
ing with the Directors, or from aDy want
of confidence or zeal for the suc
cess of the Road. His reasons were
entirely personal, aud his resignation
was received with sincere regret by the Direc
tors. While it is a matter of general regret to
the public also, that Colonel Grant decided to
resign, it is a matter of congratulation
that one so able, energetic and reliable as
Colonel Geo. W. Adair was found to take bis
pla:e. The simple announcement of the fact
that George Adair had been made President
of the Western road has given renewed confi
dence in the early completion of the enterprise.
We heard numbers say yesterday, “ Now the
road will be pushed through. Adair will get
on his horse and go to the work, and what
ever can be done to carry it through will be
speedily done.”
Colonel Adair s pleasant relation with Mr.
John P. King, and the management of the
Georgia Railroad, also render it almost cer
tain that this road will now come forward
and pay up the amount of their two hundred
and fifty thousand subscription.
We, therefore, bespeak for Colonel Adair
the confidence and assistance of all the
friends of the road. Let them do their part
and he will do bis.

report is current that William M. Tweed has
eecaped the new indictment through a stnpid blunder
or design on the part of some official. Andrew J.
Garvey testified before the grand jury that he col
lected a fraudulent bill from the city for $126,707, and
that he collected the bill through; Ingersoll, to whom
he gave on the same day a check for $95,000. On this
and other testimony concerning the parties implicated
the grand jury ordered an indictment against Tweed,
Ingersoll and Wm. E. King, Tweed’s private secretary;
but when the bill of indictment was returnod for
the signature of the Foreman, the name of Tweed was
found omitted, and the mistake, if such it was, was
not rectified. Ingersoll and King having fled, the
new indictment is worthless.

A Memphis Sensation.
WHAT A YOUNO LADY DID WHOSE MOTHER
orrOSED HER MABBIACE.
Memphis Appeal, 27th.
Friday, Mr. J. B. Clark, of Tipton county,
came to this city, and engaged rooms at the
Central Hotel lor himselt and wife. Late in
the afternoon, he arrived there with a beauti
ful young lady from Tipton county, who is
visiting at her brother-in-law in this city. Mr.
Hastings, who is the polito proprietor of tho
Central, asked Mr. Clark if that was his wife,
and the latter showed him his license to
marry, stating that he wanted tho nuptial
ceremony to ta’je place at once. Justice
Miller was immediately sent for, and upon
arriving commenced looking as serious as a
stone fence. Bat he did not marry the couple
because the young lady wanted him to return
the marriage license as soon as the ceremony
was periormed. She did not want the mar
riage made public, but wished to conceal it.
Mr. Clark, with an heroic energy, then re
paired to Justice UalJ, who complied with
the wish of the lady, and married them. The
couple then went back to the hotel, and the
license was left in charge of tho handsome
young clerk, who comes on watch at 4 o’clock
in the morning. Tho young bridegroom
drove liis wife to her brother-in-law's resi
dence in this city, and, leaving her there,
returned to tho hotel, where he slept by him
self during the night. Yesterday he went
about town as if he had never been married,
and dined with his wife’s brother, who knew
nothing of the marriage. Later iu the after
noon it was reported that the brother and two
kinsmen were said to be on the lookout for
Mr. Ciaik, towaul whom they entertained
no very pleasant feelings, upon learning
that he had secretly married the young
lady, who is of one of the wealthiest
and most estimable families in Tipton
county. Mr. Clark, however, is not a scary
man, and was seen at the Central Ho
tel very late yesterday evening. It was
reported that the young wife had filed a peti
tion for divorce iu one of our courts, but
while this strange conduct can not be well
conjectured, much less explained, we give the
above facts as we have been informed, sup
pressing the name of the young lady at the
instance of acquaintances, and through cour
tesy due the feelings of her relatives, whom
we understand are very much grieved at the
result of her attachment lor Mr. Clark. The
young lady has been engaged two years to a
young man well known in Memphis, but now’
a resident of Arkansas. Her mother opposed
his suit, and now her daughter has married
Mr. Clark. What the consequences will be
it is difficult to foresee.

To-day the new party Peoples’ Convention assem
bled at 11 a. u. at Am bo'a Hall, and was called to order
by Hon. T. E. Cunningham, leader of the Allen coun
ty movement, who made a short speech, explaining
the movement In the course of his remarks ho said
both the prominent parties were in such a condition
as to make the new party an absolute necessity for the
protection of the people.
Neither of the proaont parties can accomplish the
needed reforms. One will not aud the other can net
help tho people. Corruption was rampant in all de
partments of the Government, and It was high time
the people took the management of their own affairs
into their own hands.
Hon. George E. Pugh, of Cincinnati, was choser
temporary chairman. He said that although he was a
Democrat of the deepest dye, he was willing to join
hands with all honest men to stop stealing in high and
low places.
THE FARMERS’ WAR.
A Wife Sold for Fifty Roubles.
A very peculiar case came up recently be-
iore the Warsaw criminal court in Ra&sia. A
miner n^med Jean Szepanski, thirty years of
age, and living in tho Kolo district, was ac
cused of selling his wife Francesca, who was
only twenty-three. He had married her a
year and a halt before, but not a day had
passed since that time without some house
hold dispute. To end it, finally he gave up
his wife to a wine merchant, Borkowskt, living
in the village of Mlnek, for fifty roubles.
The details of the sale were as follows:
Szepanski on bis way back from tho Kolo
market with his wife, stopped at the little inn
at Mlyuek. While there Szepanski proposed
to sell his wagon to a man for eight roubles.
His wife and the innkeeper endeavored to
dissuade him from doing tLi<. In response
he said: “My sales concern no oue else; I am
free to sell even my wife !” Tbe innkeeper
Borkowski then asked him wbat he valued
her at. Szepanski said fifty roubles, about
200 francs. The money was immediately
paid over. The husband pocketed it, seized
his wife who resisted iu vain, and threw her
violently against the counter where her pur
chaser was standing, crying at the same time,
“Go to the devil. I should rather have the
money than to have yon; I will find whenever
I want, ten women in place of one.”
The innkeeper said: “ My dear l raucisca, I
have just gained you; you will be my wile.”
He then seized her and carried her off. That
evening the guests at tbe inn were entertained
with brandy, cigars, and a supper in honor of
Borkowski s n ew wife :
The next day Francisca appealed to her
father and lie went with her to the police sta
tion.
It appeared that neither buyer nor seller
was under the influence of liquor at the lime
ot the sale.
Szepanski was condemned to rixleen
months’ imprisonment, aud the buyer, Bork
owski, to four months imprisonment.
That Talking Match. —An amusing fea
ture of the last day of the Clayton County
Fair was the talking match between about a
dozen ladies, notoriously reticent, or in other
words remarkable for having nothing to say
on any subject whatever, or upon any occa
sion. With a wink to the crowd, Gen. Clay
ton escorted them singly to tho Exposition
Hall on the plea of business, and each came
with the idea that some important question
on tho mysteries of the household depart
ment claimed their individual attention.
When assembled, he announced that a pre
mium of ten dollars was offered to tbe best
talker and the “anger that riz, and tho words
that were let loose,” on this announcement
was a caution to quiet people. Every
oue of them got mad. Every one of them
began to talk, and the babel of voices that
then entered was a caution. They
all opened their batteries, and the fear was
that something was about to happen. Final
ly, all submitted but two, and they Laving
talked to tho satisfaction of the judge, tho
ominous announcement W’as made, “time up. ”
This was the occasion of a new departure, aud
each begun the tale of injustice, in not being
allowed time enough to say what she thought,
in other words, to give that crowd a“ piece
of her mind.” One said she claimed tho ten
dollars because she was talking for a house
damaged by fire, and furniture broken and
destroyed. Another said she was talking for
a large family consisting of a superanuated
husband and numerous children, and that
committee was tho w'orst nonplussed of any
i ever saw. They finally decided that the
rthy President of the association must pay
each one of them $10 from the private fund
of his glory, achieved from the eminent suc
cess of his first enterprise in this life.—Euf
