On Monday last a fair and handsomo delegation of the Sewing Club came to thia office aim asked us to announce that the ladies of their Society had de cided to have a Strawberry Festival on next Friday night. With pleasure wo call the attention of the public to the time for the feast, and bespeak for the enterprising Club a large attendance. The end that tins organization hats in view, and is endeavoring to advance is too well known and commendable to re quire comment from ns at this time, and we feel certain that the town and vicini ty will exhibit their appreciation of the efforts of the ladies by being present at the entertainment on next Friday night. The festival will be had at the hall now occupied by Madame Louis, the dancing teacher, just one door above The Ga rETTE office. Everybody remember Fri day night, and assist in the consumma tion of tile Club’s laudabl* object. Married. And, now, w* are delighted to an nounce the nuptials of Mr. J. C. Swcar engin and Miss Lucy Brewer, by the Lev. J. H. Grogan, at the residence of the bride’s father, on Wednesday even ing. May 15th. The wedding was largely, attended, and was a brilliant affair. May their walk through life and they be made to realize the following: “There's a bliss beyond all that the minstrel has told, When two, that are link’d in one heavenly tie. With heart never changing, and brow never cold, Love on thro’ all ills, and love gii till they die, , One hour of a passion so sacred is worth Whole ages or heartless and wandering bliss; And Oh ! if there be an Elysium on earth, It is this—it is this 1 <• Paoli High School.

It is a pres ent worthy of tho noble women whoso names 1 find written on each one’s piece. Their names will live in memory as bright jewels of benevolence. G. M. Campbell. SUICIDE! A LADY TAKES HER LIFE WHILE HER HUSBAND IS AT CHUEOH. An Entire Community Thrown into Mourning. When we are called upon to chronicle an event like that which occurred in our county on Sunday last, our pen falters in its task, and our thoughts, through deep sympathy for a mourning house hold and a distressed neighborhood, re fuse to be arranged in systematic form. Although hardly a week passes without heralding a case of self-destruction else where, we have never before in uur ex perience here as a journalist been called upon to record a case in Elbert, and it is therefore the more sad and shocking. The day, too—the holy Sabbath—God’s day—when all nature should be at peace —a day especially on which sinful mftn should, with mind clothed in serene con tent, look from nature up to nature’s God—when all was clad in the most en chanting habiliments of smiling spring, a season which presents all attractions to woo the soul to life and love and hope, to win us to noblest impulse gen erous minds can feel. The day, we say, when all should study the commands a wise Jehovah has laid upon his creatures, instead of ushering our souls, without a call from Him into lii3 holy presence. All these considerations inspire awe and cause reflection upon man’s imperfec tions and the holy attributes of his Cre at or. On Sunday last Mr. James G. Eber hart, a n was his custom, attended morn ing service at Antioch church, accompa nied by his daughter. As his wife was in bad health he had objected to going, but she insisted he should go, and he felt less hesitation than he otherwise would from the fact that a gentleman who was stopping there temporarily was going to remain while Mr. Eberhart was absent. This gentleman says that soon after the husband left Mrs. Eberhart went up stairs and remained nearly two hours, when she came down and went through the room whoro he was sitting, j which was the last he ever saw of her in • life. The remainder of the tragedy we ! gather from the appearance of things in ! the locality where it occurred. Procur ing a rope, she went to the smoke-house, where she with evident coolness prepar ed for the fatal deod. Shj# unfastend the collar around her neck and pinned it to a meal sack suspended on the wall, then with the aid of a ladder she ascended to and seated herself upon one of the joists. Hero she adjusted the rope around her neck, fastened the other end to a rafter and then let herself easily down. When found life had ebbed away. The hands were tightly clenched, the ueck was not broken, but little strain about the eyes, and the tongue but slig .tly protruding. Returning home from church, with thoughts perhaps intent upon the word of God, the husband’s and daughter’s shook when the dreadful death was discovered may, by some stretch of fan cy, be imagined, but not by puny pen described. The body was taken down and every effort made at recuscitation, but without avail —the casket was rob bed of its j H.vel—the soul had gone to its homo. Mrs. Eberhart had been in bad health for several years, and of late, it is said, has been subject to spells of mental ab erration, under one of which attacks it is supposed she was laboring when she committed the deed wo have recorded. Sue was a daughter of the late Henry P. Brawner. and bad large family con nections in the county. She leaves two children —daughters : the elder the wife of John G. Doadwyler, of Madison coun ty, and one about nineteen years of age, unmarried. Mr. Eberhart is well known through out the county as one of our most intel ligent and substantial citizens, and our readers with one accord will sympathise with him in this terrible affliction. To attempt the offer of consolation would be little less than mockery, but our feelings for him are sincere, as our acquaintance with him has but increased our respect, for him with the growth of years. - - Frogress of the Railroad, The work of gx - ading on the i - ailroad is rapidly nearing completion. The larg er portion of the work now to be done is within the corporate limits, and the entire work will probably be finished in a week from to-day. The Executive Committee cn Monday located the Elberton depot. The site for the building is immediately in rear of Judge Blackwell s barn, and will be convenient for all classes of business. The hands commenced grading at this point yesterday morning. The officers of the company are bo coming, if possii le, more vigilant and industrious in the interest of the road, and they are determined to continue their labors until the last rail is laid, tho last spike driven, and the much coveted iron horse put fairly to work. Streets to Work. And now Marshal James is flying around getting up names to work tho •streots. Ho is desirous of doing away with xx goo 1 deal of cost by raising the sum of $3 from each person subject to road duty and then engaging the con victs to work the streets. A cost of about $4 will be saved by this plan to all who hire hands or substitutes when the time for working comes. * o Foil Dead. A lady by the name of Brown, aged 82, fell dead in Franklin county last Eri day. She lived in the locality known as Gum Log Law Ground. In apparently good health, she walked out in the yard and, without a cry or groan, fell to the ground, and in a few moments life was totally extinct. . Stenographers about Brooklyn are becoming disconsolate. The Beecher- Tilton scandal is rapidly drawing to a close. Observations. We began to think the clerk of the weather had made another mistake in his books last Sunday and Monday nights. They were as cool as evenings in February. Dr. Edmunds is nearly always fixing up something. He is now giving the inside of his hotel an improved appear ance by having it newly papered. It al ready presents quite a changed appear ance. Corn in Elberton is quoted at $1.15 and du*l sales. The Elberton Minstrels expect visit ing Hartwell during the commencement of the High School at that place If the} go they will exhibit on Tuesday night. It’s queer, but we have no picnic to announce ior Saturday. To be called on at a large gathering to ask the blessing at dinner is more than most folks will survive. We were asked to perform this task the other day, and if we had lost sight of the tempting edibles before us, the contem plation of our whereabouts would be shocking. We know of nothing moro feeling than to have a two hundred pound individu al step on your pet corn, and then in an apologizing tone tell you if you don’t want your toes stepped on you must get out of the way. The most trying ordeal we have had lately was trying to make our devil go up the stove pipe and frighten out §Lhe swallows. We couldn’t get him up the pipe, but he put his head at the opening of the same, and the swallows homeward flew. Gossip is as essential to a country town’s livelihood, as oil is to make up a whitewash. That photographer, Johnny Wren, makes the best pictures ever executed in Elborton. We hear some of the farmers com plaining of rust in their wheat, though not badly. It is a bad sign to see a man at a pump at two o’clock in the morning, working with the strength of a forty horse power engine, and not able to sa tiato his dryness. There is a good stand of cotton re ported in the county. The conflicts are not far from the city. Mr. Eddins, of Toccoa City, keeps a first clast livery stable in that town. Having been misinfored an error oc curred in last week’s issue as to the time of the spelling-match at Eureka. It is to come off on Friday, the 28th day of May. “Once and occasionally” as Thomasu didimus would say, a stray drummer pervades the sacred precincts of our quiet village. Sweet garland wreaths of wild flowers adorned the hats of the young folks at the picnic Saturday. About next Friday is the time for the Sunday school convention at Union Point. A treat is promised at Madame Louis soiree Tuesday night. Come out boys and bring the ladies. “Sweet strawberry?, nice cake, pretty girls, sugar and cream will be plentiful at the festival Friday night,” said an ol derly lady member of the Sewing Club to ns yesterday. The committee on music for the Sab bath school have at last commenced work. Lager beer never becomes stale in this town. What Madame Louis don’t know about dancing is not considered essen tial. . Our devil is now tormenting the in mates of this office at leisure hours with a banjenette. “I am saddest when I sing, and so is every one who hears me,” someone has said. How well it would suit some folks about here, especially the latter part of the sentence. The fans for ladies are as huge as evei\ The late cold snap didn’t help cotton much, if any, in fact we think none at all. Solomon Duncan’s estate is being ad ministered upon by the ex-officio clerk of th(4 court dobonisnonnoncomposmen tis. A party of surveyors leave town near ly every day to show-the folks what they know about it. Cheap Swinging. Beneath the boughs of a majestic oak, now and then as the zephyrs parted the verdent leaves silvery beams from the queen of night shed a halo of light upon them as they swung on the front yard gate, and tho last thing that was heard was the old man up stairs, screaming at the top of his voice, “Young man, I don’t care how much you talk to my daughter, but if you break them hinges it will cost you seventy-five cents.” But the boy had the stamps and kept on swinging. ♦CS>* The Pic-Nic and “Bee” at Eureka. The picnic and “bee” which we last week announced to take place at Eureka on Saturday, the 29th, is to take placo on Friday, the 28th inst. Let there be no mistake in the day —Friday. The schools here will largely participate, and the good people in the neighborhood will turn out eji masse, which will make this probably the great picnic of the season. Big Pish. There was a largo quantity of fish brought to this market from Craft’s fishery last week. Some of them weigh ed as much as twenty two pounds. Now we call this a pretty fine, large sized fish, but we heard a man say that he could have eaten it for breakfast, and would not have to be hungry either. Wo hate to express ourself so modestly, but that man’s a I—r. - - The soiree will be a brilliant affair.— Remember Tuesday night. MS. HILL’S PLURALITIES AND MAJORI TIES. We are ablo to present our readers with the official returns from all the counties of the Ninth Li strict, except Towns county. The vote in that coun ty will be small, and cannot change the result materially. The victory is a splendid one, and the majorities are almost incredible.

Tho farmers wo have conversed with give a rather discouraging account of the wheat, and thoy estimate tho crop will be considerably short of last year’s. Good stands of cotton aro generally reported, and the weed looks healthy. Corn is reportau as looking wall and growing vigorously. LYNCH LAW Ilf LffiDUFFIE COUNTY. On Wednesday night last unknown persons, said by the victims to be three in number, went to a cabin occupied by some negroes, on the plantation of Capt. Thos. A. Hamilton, and, as the negroes report, under pretense of desiring their asistance in fixing a broken down wa gon, induced then to come out of the house, when one of the party presented a gun at the captives, remarking, “We’ve got you now,” and ordered them (a man and woman, the latter in a critical con dition) to fallow them. Taking them some distance they halted, and, after striking a few blows, released him, with the threat that if he did not leave the plantation before Saturday night he would be killed. The negro woman, notwithstanding her condition, did not fare s® well, for her arms and shoulders present evidence of severe treatment. The facts having been made known to Gapt. Hamilton, bo concluded, as the cabin occupied by these negroes was at a remote distance from his main settlement, for their better protection, to move them to his quarter. Owing to their treatment and threats made against them, it was with reluctance they con sented to remain on the plantation, even with the promise of protection. The parties who committed the dead pulled down the fence and went across Capt H.’s field, and their course, going and returning, was traced by the tracks of of their horses ♦ THE SCHILLER DISASTER. • The Atlanta Constitution, in speaking of this terrible disaster, gives the names of the following citizens of Georgia, sup posed to have been on this illfated ves sel: Seven citizens of Georgia are known to have been on board, and we can only hope that all were not lost in the terrible disaster. Mr. Leonhardt, his wife and little daughter were on board the illfated vessel. Mr. Loonhardt is a well known citizen of Augusta, and a member of the firm of F. A. Brahe & Cos. Mr. Maurice Harrison, of Hawkinsville, had built a snug home, and was on his way to bring back his bride. Mr. Cohen, of the firm Eichberg & Cohen, of Montezuma, was called across the water by the appre hended death of his mother. Air. Her man Spritz, of Macon, and Air. A. Water man, ol Hawkinsville, were crossing the stormy ferry for the purpose of visiting their friends in the old country. Other Georgia passengers are reported among the passengers of the Schiller ; but only the foregoing are known to have sailed. Centennial. —The Nashville Union and American declares that the Rev. Dr. Augustine T. Smythe, a distinguished Presbyterian divine of Charleston, S. C., in a pamphlet issued in 1847, gave an interesting dissertation to prove that both the Mecklenburg Declaration of In dependence an > Jefferson’s wrere sug gested by or taken from “A General Bond, for the maintenance of True Ro ligion and the King’s Person and Es tate,” put forth to be signed by the members of the Presbyterian Church of Scotland, more than a century before American independence was resolved upon. King Kalakana, of the Sandwich Isl ands, will send his feather cloak to the Centenial Exeposition at Philadelphia. This article will represent more labor than any other that will be on exibition. Its manufacture was commenced over a hundred years ago, under the auspices of some of the ancestors ofKamehameha, tho first King of tho Islands, and up ward of fifty years of time was required for its completion. It is made of the feathers of a peculiar species of bird— each hire furnishing only two feathers, one from under each wing. In size the cloak is a little over a square yard, and its color is a golden yellow. It used to be w'orn by the King on state occasions, but of late years it serves only to adorn the reception room of the palace. CURRENT ITEMS. The Memphis Appeal of Friday in forms us that a private letter from New Orleans mentions the death of Santa Anna, near Jalapa, a few days ago. The Bainbridge Democrat says the ‘‘buffalo gnat” has appeared in that county in largo numbers and are very annoying to stock, though no deaths are yet reported. There wall be lots of peaches in New Jersey, Maryland Delaware this soasen, all reports to the contrary notwithstand ing. The Rev. Mr. Swing says of certain novels that they are gates of beauty through which often appear tho holiest truths of life.” Ex-Senator Pratt, who has been ap point Commissioner of Internal Revenue, make the eighteenth member of tho last Congress who supported the force bill and failed to secure a re-election, who has been given office by the President. One day last week a smiling infant toddled away from its home near Viola, lowa, on the Dubuquo Southwestern railroad, and lay down between the rails to sleep. A few moments later a train came along and the engineer seeing he could not stop in time, pulled her wide open and banged the whole train over the cherub before it woke, and never touched a hair of it. Had the little one attempted to rise it would have been killed instantly. It is reported that Parker, the late State Treasurer of South Carolina, threatens to implicate Governor Cham berlain he is not released from arrest. Chamberlain was a State office (Attorney General or Controller) with Parker un der Governor Scott, and at the time the Stato was being plundered, was credited with having a finger in tho pie. At Galveston, Texas, on’Satnrday last, ground was broken for tho construction of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe rail road, which will join the International and Great Northern road at Houston, and reach, by a series of connections, some of which remain to be built, far up into the Southwestern country towards the Pacific slope This project is con sidered of great importance to Galves ton with tho railway system of Texas and the Continent, as the Galveston News enthusiastically puts it. At a meeting of the Ohio Democratic State Central Committee at Columbus on Thursday, it was resolved to hold a Convention on the 17th of June. Sena tor Thurman made as peech, during which he said tho day had gone by for carrying Ohio by stump speeches. Or ganization by townships was v/hat was needed. Ho thought it apparent to every one that unless tho Republican party can carry Ohio this Fall, its fate is sealed, and if the Democratic party carry the State this Fall, it would settle the question of party ascendancy in the na tion. Air. H. P. Mathis, who lives near Stockton, and who some timo ago pur chased a miner’s compass and appurten ances by which to auceed in finding metal under the surface of the earth, was out near Sloat, Bassall & Co.’s mill on the Alapaha river a few evenings ago with his compass, and at a spring, o* Air. Mathis’ premises, he found after digging about three feet below the sur face of the earth, a copper basin contain ing twelve pieces of ancient coin, bear ing dates 250 to 531 j'ears ago. The lar gest of these pieces would weigh, per haps, three-fourths of a pound. Air. Mathis has other points in this vicinity marked, which ho intends to dig into it in future. Gen. Frank P. Blair is steady irnprov ing under the operations of transfusing healthy blood into his veins. Ho has now received three operations. The first time an ounce and a half was trans fused ; th© second timo a little less than four ounces, and the last time previous five ounces. Tho first two timo ho lay almost insensible and apparently uncon scious. The last times he watched the operation with goat interest and articu lated a few words, which he had not done for some timo. He also moved his paralytic arm, and a few minute? after wards fell asleep. His wife and family are represeuted to bo greatly encouraged. Similar operations have boon performed recently on two patients in a St. Lou is hospital, and each in instance tho result i3 said to have been s -tisfactory. For the first timo in fifteen years reli gious services were held Sunday weak in the Pohiek Church, Fairfax county, Virginia. This church was built m 1773, through tho personal exertions of George Washington. During tho lato war it was occupied by Union troops as a stable, some gentlemen of New York learning its condition, had it rebuilt in handsome style. The mortality of American cities fo 1874, as reported by the Massachusetts Beard of Health, occasions -considerable comment in the journals. The lowest average on the listjis St. Louis, 16.27 per 1,000 of the population ; then following Buffalo, 18.46; Milwaukee, 12.00; Phil; adolphia, 29.54; Washington, D. C., 19.72; Providence, 10.86; Chicago 20,31; Baltimore, 21.14 ; Detroit, 21 69 ; Boston, 23.00 ; Brooklyn, 24.46 ; Pitts burg, 24.69 ; New' York, 21.61; Newark, 29.16. In commenting upon this tho St. Louis Democrat calls attention to the remarkable differences caused by more ample accommodations in Philadel phia and to the contrast between that city and New York- But it seems that the average number of persons to a dwelling is higher there than in some other cities, namely; Cleveland, 5.5; Detroit, 5.4; Washington, 5.6; San Francisco, 5.7 ; New Orleans, 5.7 ; Phil delpbia, 6. Tho highest averages are; New York, 14.7; Cincinnati, 8.8; Brook lyn, 8.6 ; Boston, 8.4 ; St. Lonis, 7.8 ; Providence, 7.4; Newark, 7.3. Our western cities are exempte from the evils of the foreign influx, while they get all the benefits of it; the soaboard cities have to cope with these burdens, and their statistics show the results. Other wise tha Atlantic cities are remarkably I healthy. THE OCEAN HORROR. The worst intelligence which first camo 'to ns of the wreck of the stc*m stiip Schiller has been fully confirmed. One of the most magnificent vessels in the passenger service has been totally destroyed and nearly, if not quite, three hundred lives lost. It is difficult to ful ly realize horrors of such a calamity; it is difficult to realize that such whole sale homicide is possible in this day of advanced knowledge end science. So far as the reports received show thi-ro is no reson to believe that the Captain of the ill fated vessed was to blame or that it was possible for human skill to have prevented the disaster or to have averted its tragical results. The Captain was unable to get his reckoning, the thick fog prevented the danger from being seen, a 'panic possessed the passeger and crew and the heavy sea mads ovary escape from the wreck a miracle. Two brothers nvnied Gaff have estfro lished a mammoth hennery iu Colorado* ten miles from Denver. It covers about four acres, which is laid out like a vil lage, with streets and avenues, along which are built long rows of houses of various designs. Regular families of hens are assigned to these housos, and it is found that they quickly doinestieate themselves without troubling their neighbors. The population of the vill age is about 2,000, divided closely into social cliques of Brahmas, Cochins, Shanghaes and Dorkings, and the chief products are eggs and spring chickens. Sundays included, tho industrious mat rons of the village turn ent daily froja forty to fifty dozen of eggs, which are sold in Doe wr for from thirty to fifty cents a dozei. The brothers Gaff ex press but a single regret, and that is that they did not found their colony fif teen years ago, when eggs brought fiva dollars a dozen, and a spriug chicken was worth a pennyweight of gold duati • —-— ♦ *€£>♦ ~ An old bachelor, upon reading that “two lovers will sit up half the night with only ono chair in tho room,” said it couldn’t bo done unless one of them stauds or sits upon tho floor.
