the State - Treasurer, has been impeach
ed, and in a short time the articles will

While many children are left desti
tute every year, there is something in
the peculiar sadness of the death of
General Hood, .his wife and iittle.anes,
his destitution after failure in business,
the large number of bis children too
small to be thrown upon the world, and
the faith of fbe* old' hero in the veterans
of the crusa for which lie sacrificed his
limbs, and almost his life, that cottr-
m uds the cause of their support and
education to the Son'bern fjeople. As
there are nine of his little orphans, the
wards of the South, to be reared and
educated, there >s no dauger of the
fund growing too large. It should be
at least fifty thousand dollars for the
interest to maintain them,and then not
in extravagance. The South is respond
ing. Several counties have pledged a
bale of cotton each. A move is on foot
by some of onr most responsible citi
zens to raise a bale in Houston. A
committee at onr county fair will give
ail who regard the legacy of Hood to
io the South as a noble one, the privi
lege of contributing to this fund. Any
thing from a dollar down to a nickel
will be received. Let our county send
up her premium bale.
County Couet.—Ike regular Septem
ber monthly term of county court was
held this week, beginning Monday,
Judge Nottingham presiding with bis
usual dignity, arid ability. This term
was devoted wholly to civil business..

By a Lady of Savannah,
THE
Savannah Weekly News
Of OCTOBER. 4th will contain the first
chapters of a story of tkrilliug interest
entitled
Anabel’s Secret
BY MRS. J. O. BRANCH.
We desire not to anticipate the pleas
ure which the readers of the Weekly
News wiE derive from the perusal cf
this charming story, and therefore will
not speak of it here further tliau to saj
that in the management of an original
and an intensely interesting plot, not
less thau in her powers of description
her life-like delineations of character,
and the pure moral tone of her reflec
tions, the accomplished author gives
assurance that she inherits the genius
of hergifted mother, Mrs Caroline Lee

T HE countenance is pale and leaden-
colored, with occasional flushes,.or
a circumscribed spot on one or both rank among the most popular American
cheeks; the eyes become dull; the pu- "
pils dilate; an azure semicircle runs
along the lower eye-lid; the nose is ir
ritated, swells, and sometimes bleeds;
a swelling of the upper' lip; occasional
headache, with humming or throbbing
of the ears; an unusual secretion of
saliva; slimy or- furred tongue; breath
very foul, particularly in the morning;
appetite variable,-sometimes voracious,
with a gnawing sensation of the stom

opportunity for somebody to make
money.
Impeachment—The defense iu the
Goldsmith’ impeachment case made a
complet e breakdown. His lawyers seem
to have badly mismanaged bis case from
beginning to end. The Comptroller
General was convicted under eleven ar
ticles and acquitted under six. The
penalty is removal frein office and per
petual disqualification from bolding
any office of trust or profit in Georgia.
The court of impeachment can go no
further.
John Henby & Son.—This excellent
firin of Hawkinsville, now occupies the
lai'ge and convenient double stores at
the 'old Maiming Corner where tkej
annbuuce a great revival of business;
and to see the immense stock of mer
chandise of all’ the usual lines they
have in store would convince the most
skeptical that they mean what they say.
Bdkides the great slock of goods at low
prices, this firm is'one of the most gen
tlemanly, upright and popular in the
St^te. Esquire |- James H. Hodges, of
Perry’ is how with this house, and will
Wgiad th seiVe Iris many friends. '
Da Cooley’s -Show.—Dr; Cooley’s
’ combination. troupe, which has been
engaged to.exhibit at Perry during the
fair; is pronounced by Prof. Guttcnbur-
ger ns -being -a fine entert rinment. The
Sandersvillo - Courier says the refined'
and'-appreeiative-audience at that place
was charmed-from the beginning to fbe
end of the entertainments, while there
was nothing- in the programme that
would not please the most cultured
taste or oapt-ivate the most fastidious
audience. • An idea of the programme
will be given iu tnis paper next week.

Motheb.Goose.—Next Tuesday night
the ladies snd children will repeat the
Mother Goose entertainment. 'The de

In addition will.be also given the splen

Sunk by a Sea Monsteb.—Ne y Yoiik,
September 9. The steamship P. Co
land, which arrived from Rotterdam,
picked up the ship-wrecked crew, twelve
in number, of the Norwegian bark Co
lumbia, bound from London for Que
bec. The bark was struck by a large
fish or sea monster and had a hole
knocked in her bottom, which caused
her to fill and sink in half an hour.
The water around the vessel became
bloody immediately after the shock was
felt. The men had barely time to es
cape into the boats.
