The Home Journal, locals. THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 14. j£j. Marx Kunz left for New York before yesterday, where he will bay a splendid full stock of goods. Ike Tharpe a well know colored car penter of Perry, was yesterday arrested n nder the charge of attempting to.rav- ish a little negro girl about eight yeara old. We regret that want of space and a sick printer compels us to omit two or three interesting communications this week. The State agricultural Society is in session at Jonesboro. We learn that a strong effort will be made to get the state fair postponed until next year and hold it biennially. Houston’s First Balo. Msj. W. Brnuson received the first bale of new cotton of the season yester day from Mr. A. H. Tharpe. It weighed 467 pounds, he at once shipped it to Messrs. Campbell & Jones, Macon. The first bale last year was three days earlier, and was sent in by Mr. J. W. Wool folk, Jr. Mr. Tharpe sent in the first bale fer several years. We call especial attentin to the ad vertisement of Houston Female College in another column. We will have more to say about Prof. Johnson and the col lege next week. Our enterprising young friend E. J. McGeuee is patting up a rice mill on his place seven miles west of of Terry. This is a much needed institution, and will cause rice to be more largely raised in this section of the state. Ho will olean it well. Those who raise rice should patronize him. A gentleman of Macon wishing to buy a small farm asks parties having such a onp for sale to apply at this of fice.

Queer Weather.—While the days are quite waim the nights for the past week have been quite cool, making cov er comfortable, and fire is demanded in the early morning. Such weather considered very unfavorable to the cot ton crop. We believe eveiy portion of onr county has had good rains, and the condition of the crop is somewhat im- proted. Corn is very short, and nearly every farmer will have to sow heavily in oats or boy corn next year. PERSONAL. Judge H, M. Holtzolaw, wife and daughter are visiting relatives in Pen- field and Atlanta. Mr, Zimmerman, one of the substan- titd citizens of Orangeburg District, Sonth Carolina, with his wife and daughter, arevisitiugtheirrelative, Mis. Samuel Felder, in Perry. Messrs. Brunson, Gordon, Caller and Etheridge have returned from Catoosa, and Mr. B. J. Smith from Indian Springs. Gen. Warren and lady have returned from the springs. Mother Goose.—We learn that the ladies are preparing to give a Mother Goose entertainment in two or three 'weeks. We will probably have full par ticulars by onr next issne. The parlor entertainment last evening at Dr. Smith’s was a complete success, both as to the programe and patronage. We will try to give some of the most salient points next week. We are la boring under disadvantages this mora ls. about help to get the paper out. »-*-* t.—Mr. A. K. Fisherjhas sold bis land near powersville, bnt his mil] 13 still in full operation.

Coleman & New- f?® have completed and removed into their new store adjoining their ware- on Poplar street, Macon. They ~ Very large and complete stock of >ell i CS antJ provisions which they will tri-m* ea P ^ or or ou reasonable ‘enas on tune, moval and fitting upof the new grounds by the date of the fair. We pnblish some extracts from the premium list in onr advertising columns, and the fuU list will be it sued from the press of The Home Journal next week. It will be found qnite complete for a county fair, and many of the premiums offered are much larger than last year. Our readers will remember that the last fair was successful bevond the most sanguine expectations of its friends, and a far greater success seems assured for 1879. All those who formerly look ed with disfavor on the enterprise have become its friends, and the people of the county and adjoining counties. The ex perience gained from the former fairs will enable the managers to avoid any mistakes then made, and to add many featnres of additional interest. Other advantages which are at their command is clear money in the treasury to fix up with, most of the buildings on the grounds, and everything in harmonious working order. Work will soon be began to improve and pnt the grounds in thorough or der, and among the improvements will be scores of seats and amphitheater near the style ling capable of seating thousand people. From all over the country the most anxious inquiries are made about the fair, and the liveliest interest ever known manifested in the fair. The up per fourteenth district seems deter- tennined to keep the agricultural ban ner, but other districts will use every exertion to win it from her, and our fourteenth friends must work like he roes and heroines if they woald keep that high honor anothet year. There is not a a fumily in the county that cannot make from one to a hundred creditable exhibits, and many can help sustain old Houston’s fair name, besides making from ten to fifty dollars for their trouble. The rules to secure fair competition and impartial awards will be veiy strict and will be rigidly enforced. Onr people all highly endorse the moral and upright manner with which our fairs have been conducted, and and their benefit in a social point of view cannot be over estimated. We will give onr readers full infor mation from week to week, and the fall premium list and rules will be hur ried up. Let every district and section do their part, for they can be assured the Fair Association desires to make no profit, bnt ouly to earn its legitimate expenses. Ho for the fair. ANOTHER JAIL DELIVERY. m Saturday evening nbont sundown an alarm was beard in the direction of the jail end a stream of citizens at once set for that place. On reaching the scene of action we learned that two prisoners had just escaped and made their way successfully to Big Indian swamp. The" particulars are sabstantially as follows: Mr. Butner, the sheriff, wen t down at the usual time to feed and water the the prisoners. There were six in jaiL three in each of the lower cells. He un locked one cell after entering, and let ont one of the prisoners who was in the habit of drawing water, etc. Before the door could be secured the other two rnshed out and seized him, throwing him dawn almost in the cell. . They demanded his pistol, saying if he would give it- up they would not hart him They then violently tore it out of his hip-pocket, and as he followed them to the dour, threatened to shoot him. The one who was let out to draw water at once made off, and the one who had the pistol followed os soon as he conld get off. The third prisoner was recaptdred just outside the jail and marched’ back to his cell by Mr. Butner. Those who escaped are Berry Jorddh, colored, charged with burglary, sent here from Crawford county for safe keeping; Tinny Wilkins, colored, charged with forgery, sent here from Fort Valley. Cornelius Grimes, coior- ed, charged with burglary in Honston county, was the one recaptnred. Berry Jordan is the one who has Mr. Butner’s pistol, a fine nickel-plated Smith & Wesson, large bore, new style, and an excellent weapon. Pursuit of the fugitives was unaval- ing. They will doubtless seek employ ment in some of the neighboring coun ties. Every sheriff we have had since the war has at some time dring his term of office been overpowered by the prison ers, and all have had narrow escapes-— Mr. Cook had his eyes almost entirely destroyed by lime thrown into them by the prisoners. Mr. Pierce was severely assaulted with a bar of bun. - Mr. Ram- ev, deputy sheriff, was forced to shoot a prisoner, not fiittlly, in self-defense. Mr." Norwood was overpowered in a manner almost identical with the case of last Saturday. It is next to impossible for a, sheriff to carry help witn him every time he goes to the jail, $nd as the jail is arranged these occasional escapades are almost unavoidable. They are very frequent in our state, and call for some action by the proper authorities. Probably the only provision that will render their recurrence more difficult, is the con-, strnction of jails so that the jailers’ res idence is adjacent, so that the outside doors can be secured, and the actions of the prisoners better watched. Sheriff Butner is pretty sore from Ms scuffle with.the mutineers,, and we hope he will soon haro the satisfaction of turning the key on them ngair. . stage coach familiar with oar fathers and became well acquainted with its top, thro’ the medium of the tops of onr heads. Finally we went thro’ the ordeal of meeting the assembled guests on the -porch cf the celebrated McIntosh House, an ordeal only those who have been submitted to it can fully appreciate. We stepped forth, being guilty of the sensation that, we were uncertain whether we were walking up rightly or waltzing on onr ear, but eventually escaped tc our room and prepared to meet the collected divini ties. The Indian hasn’t been giving credit for the crowd which it really entertains this season. Its inuccesibility pre vents it from being patronised to the extent which it deserves and from be ing the fashionable resort whieh it was in aste bellum days. Nevertheless we found many pleasant people from dif ferent parts of the State and it can never be a nonentity. So frequently “the value of all things exists, not indeed, in themselves, bnt mans use of them, feeding mans need.” Here tho’ beniiit can really be derived as an analysis by Dr. Arnold some years age sbows how efficiacious its waters are for rheumatism and liver affections. Every one I met added their tribute of praise to the water and tbeir conviction of material benefit from its nse. Be sides its medicinal recommondations it is charmingly situated. Naturally there is no’more delightful place and these loving nature, here beauties and excentricities could be in stantly attracted here. Situated at- the foot of an almost precipitous hill, the little life renewing fount bubbles forth .from a fissure in a gigantic rock, in a minute bnt continuous stream, crystal clear and limpid. The discovery of and tradatioas con nected with the spring have been so of ten told that I shall not tonch upon them, but- so thoroughly is the place adapted for an Indian encampment that the first time I visited the place, my mind involuntarily turned to the time when probably was here enacted the wooing of some Minnie Ha Ha by the swarthy Hiawatha. Here the women at tho wig-wain iutent upon their duties— -the smoko from the boiliug cauldron -here the sinewy warriors, toil spent “Mayhap, reliersing ancient tales of greenwood love and bliss, Perchance, of booty won or shared beneath the starry cape— Of graves, perchance, untimely scooped at midnight dart and dank; Of traitors lips that muttered plots—of. kin who fought and felL" But “some dreams we have arc nothing else but dreams.” The larger part of the excursion stopped at the McIntosh, the remain der nt the Elder. They were soon made at ease by the genial welcome of the proprietor Mr. B. W. Collier and immediately comfortably domiciled by the charming Mr. Wait Collier. Rain soon poured in torrents and continued without ceasing for several days. Despite the gloom magnificent which prevailed ontside ‘he spirits within were not over shadowed and pleasantry and dancing reigned supreme. Tae fall of rain is said to be unprecedented the water being ten or twelve feet above the bridges and cutting off all commucation between mail points for several days. The dress ball was quite a success. Despite the dripping clouds, many visi tors came in and the display of beauty enhanced by elegnnt.dressfngand hand some gallant men in the graceful exe cuted polanaioe which opened the ball was pronounced the grandest for years. I mast not omit to mention the liter ary entertainment, wMch was given on Saturday evening, consisting of mnsic, recitations, reading and puns on the “household.” It was a charming af fair and devised and managed by the elegant and charming Miss Carrie C. Accessions to onr present party, nnm- bering abont one hundred and twenty, five, are daily expected. Natal ine. Captain Webb, the famous English swimmer; will next Wednesday attempt to swim from Bandy Hook to Manhat tan beach, a distance of fifteen miles, without any artificial help whatever. A small steamer will folfow him. The Maine election, if the Republi cans are to carry it, most givo them 75,000 votes, or 12,000 more than they got last year. They must bring ont all their reserves and win back some of their revolters who have joined the Greenbackers. Well informed New England jonrnals seem to doubt their ability to do this. • They say that the canvass is languid, and that Sherman's “boom,” while it may. have helped him personally in Blaine’s stronghold, cer tainly did not help the party mncL. the issue in Maine being exclusively local, not national. There is also said to bea decided reluctance in- some qnarteis to drill under Blaiue’s lead, and this may prevent the full vote from being brought out. The Colored Exodus.—Hon Cliarles E. Hooker, "member of Congress from Mississippi, has been interviewed in re gard to the colored exodns from that State. He says many of the colored people who left have been duped by circulars distributed a mong" them. One of these circulirs had printed on the head, “Show to no White Man,” and informed the recipient that the govern ment would give each immigrant to Kansas sixty aeres of land, ’ and that plenty of work conld be found -on the railroads at §1.50 a day. Mr. Hooker thinks the colored laborer is infinitely better off in the South than anywhere else, and is of the opinion that the best Now is the time to secure space in the thing they can do is to accept the ad- Houston County Fair premium list- vice of Mr. Fred Douglass, and remain l’erui3 easy.

We have a free school system which al lows a teacher to teach three months in the year at one place, to be paid by the school commissioner. Now after he teaches three months at that place, he opens a school within a mile and teach es another three months;—can the same scholars go to school the second three months? If they can, I don’t see any nse to move. I know of several children in my neighborhood who have been to school six months, and are now going to the third school, wMch will make nine months schooling they will receive free. Is this the intention of the law? If so, do away with the free school sys tem. I am opposed to it in toto. I think the law says those between the ages of six and sixteen are entitled to the benefits ot the free school (I am not positive). If so, none ought to go bnt those between those ages; yet they goat any age—married men and married wo men. Is this right? I hare thought on this subject a good deal, and I am of the opinion that they are more of a curse than a blessing. They encourage idleness and laziness in the colored race. Let one go to school long enough to read a little, and he is done work.— He become a teacber, then a preacher, and then a leader among them. Yon can’t persuade them to read anything bnt the most dirty radical sheets; those that abuse the whites most they seek after, I am tired of being taxed to educate vagrants and vagabonds. Do away with the free school. Let every tab stand on its own bottom. If the darkey wants to be educated let him pay for it. There is no justice in one man being taxed to educate another’s children. Outside oi the cities the free school system does not benefit the poor white children bnt very little; because their parents in tho spring are compelled to keep them at home to help them in their farms. Now, hlr. Editor, I would like to reed your views ou this subject, will yon be kind as to give them through, tho col umns of 3 onr journal? Tax Pater, 10th District. THE TOWN FARMER. The benevolent town farmer feels that his mission to the planting community has been fulfilled. Not that all ptant- ers are believed to be in a prosperous condition just now, bat that their un satisfactory circumstances are not in any way attributable to dereliction, error, or inefficiency on his part. Their failures are owing either to a perverse and per sistent repudiation of his counsels, or to the drought. Exceptional instances of failure are perhaps attributable to sheer laziness. These, like the others, reflect no discredit upon the town farmer. He has never prescribed a remedy for lazi ness, and doabts if it is’carable in this climate. At present the town farmer devotes himself, in spare moments, not idle moments) to the contemplation of what are known as general principles, and so gathers materials for miscella neous theories. Some of them when constructed, will be valuable to all bus- ness men, and especially to such plant ers as are not “set in their ways,” - On general principles be l-elieves that various mercantile and banking commu nities which are shipwrecked to-day, with only a part of the cargo saved in a damaged condition, wonld have contin ued to sail in prosperous wi nds if they had not attached dredging machines to their loaded ships. That figure of speech means that merchants and bank ers, when trade was good, gouged their customers to death, and so produced a revulsion calamitous to themselves.— They deserved their fate certainly, bat the town farmer who went down in the general crash was a genuine martyr.— He cried out against the madness of fol ly and avarice all the way to the bot tom. Approach a gonger down here on the common level and ask him why he per petrated such wicked and preposterous folly in the day of his opportunity,fand he will answer that the self-styled “poor planter importuued him for so-called “help,” and was eager to sabmit to ei ther usury or extortion. He felt bound to accommodate him on the terms. To day the foolish planter bitterly curses the sometime festive googer, and the foolish gonger bitterly corses the some time sanguine cottontot, and so the air of heaven is filled with the imprecations of avaricious fools whoso coffers are empty.
