AUAA to MILLER, oi-noys &t Xiai Perry, Gjl Practice in the courts of Houston adjoining counties, Supreme Conri Georgia, United States Courts, and where by special contract j an ft? Many newspapers in the State, with the prevailing aptitude to jump at con clusions, are raising a hue and cry against carrying deadly weapons. This 's not striking at the root of the matter. The law must protect the life of the good citizen, or it should allow him to arm to defend himself. The law as now maladministered binds the community hand and foot, and permits it to be come a prey io the abnse and insults of ruffians. Perhaps if Coleman and oth ers had been well armed in Macon, Ab. Gibson would hot have been allowed to run. amuck all day. People can’t de pend on cowardly policemen and Qua ker peace officers to protect them, and the law should license them to exercise their constitutional right to “keep and bear arms.” No gentleman wants to go about with a pistol buckled around him, and ho shonld be allowed to carry it in bis pocket. Not one bully in twenty will attack a man who he knows to be well prepared for him,—and if he does He is likely to come oat second best.— Notwithstanding the law the ruffian will cany some kind of weapon. Now we don’t carry concealed weap ons, except on special occasions when there is a possibility of needing them for self defense, but we have heard of too mahy cases of the peaceable, unarm ed citizen becoming a victim to some cowardly, revengeful enemy, to join in the popu'ar craze against carrying weapons. The law allows a man to get drunk and insult and abuse the community, and if he commits a murder while in that state he can find jurors to acquit, him, notwithstanding their oath to ad- m ni iter the law. Liet the law fine every man one hundred dollars that gets drunk, , t ud the greatest danger to the community will soon be averted,, and then perhaps it will be time to adminis ter the law more strictly against carry ing deadly weapons. Whiskey is the cause of nineteen twentieths of the crime in the country, and yet there is no law against a man putting himself in a condition to have no regard for peace and law and the life of bis fellow beings. HAWKINSVILLE, CA A steamboat has been built at Mil- ledgeville fo»- the Government work on the Ocmulgee and Oconee rivers. The Marietta Journal says the nar row gauge road is within four miles of Canton.

The road vill therefore be sold by the Georgia Bailroad, through its trustee, Wm. M. Beese. The Savannah News says that the druggists of Savannah have made final arrangements for the reception and en tertainment of the druggists of the State on the occasion of their annnal meeting in that city on the 8th of April. The Metropolitan hall has been secured for the business meetings, which prom ise to be very interesting, as some im portant matters will be up for discus sion. On the second day the visitors will be treated to a grand excursion to Tybee and the outer sea buoy on the fine steamer David Clark. The Thomaeville Enterprise says that on the 12th ult. Mrs. Bobert Faison was suddenly stricken blind while su- perint 3nding*breakfast. _ The blindness was not exactly total and was unaccom panied by pain. Soon, however, sight was almost entirely lost, and pain set in, which became very severe. Dr. T. M. McIntosh has been called in and is treating the case. At present the pain is but slight, and the sight greatly im proved, with fair prospects for a final and full restoration. Savannah is curiously inspecting a cu rious specimen of ihe piscine tribe known as the king fish. The News says it was caught off Tybee Island by some fishermen of the schooner Lillian, Capt. S. B.

The most noteworthy hereabouts, are the private equipages, which generally are unpre- tendiug, but light, graceful and sensi-. ble, The rage at present is for ponies. Ladies drive them generally, and do not yield the reigns even when a “Lord of creation” occupies a seat. Eow much a result of the abominable “pin backs” this habit of driving is need not be argued. Doubtless a particularly irksome walk suggests relief in riding. In many places, in spite of the vener able curmudgeons who for half a centu ry had cogitated uninterruptedly of mon ey as the only' worthy snbject of thought,' and had sagely concluded that nothing else would pay—: in spite of these, there is a growing taste for.flow ers and ornaments, and the people feel better, and the people are better for the feeling, It is true too, that from certain busi ness places the parties have disappear ed, who used to come frequently, and always with tbe dolprous sing-song on their lips “what in the name o’sense is tbe poor plauteis going to do.” These same dirge-singers have since learned Is a perfect Bacon I’ikifier, and is the only purely Vegetable remedy known to sci ence, that has made radical and Permanent Cures of Syphilis and Scrofula in all their stages.

The Baiubridge Democrat very prop erly soys that there are “three bad things for Georgia’s prosperity—mean whiskey, concealed weapons, and a disposition to forgive murderers.” The Hawkinsvilte Dispatch tells a story on a countryman of that section who'came into Hawkiusville a day or two ago with his pockets and a small sack filled with Mexican dollars which he- bad buried thirty years ago, and just dug up.
