THE GAZETTE. i —i i Wednesday, August 9, 1876. Colquitt the Man. We give elsewhere the proceedings of the nominating convention at Atlanta last week. Our judgment is that the cordial unanimity, with which Col quitt was supported alone prevented a hopeless split in the Democratic party of Georgia. As it is, w do not believo there will be an in dependant candidate, or if there is, that he will get any respota jble support outside of the radical ranks The Haft Oonuty Noinminee. We congralulate the citizens of Hart county in their selection of a candi date for the Legislature. John B. Benson is one of the cleverest men in this or any other State,- and is a man in every way qualified for the position. He will do his county credit. We know there is no danger of an independ ent candidate, for thero is- no man of courage enough to run against -‘Old Benson.” 0. W. Seidel, Esq. . Wo are gratified to learn from our re turnfed delegates from the gubernatorial convention that this gentleman, our Hart county correspondent, was one of the secretaries of that convention. His superior abilities in this line of business, which he has proved conclu sively in this district, recommend him to the good wishes and votes of the people, and with the next legislature, we speak for him an unanimous election to the place of clerk of the House of Representatives. Where are the Murders Committed? In looking over the dispatches of last Tuesday, we find six murders commit ted, but one of which occurred in a Southern State—that of State Senator John H. Loughborough at Little Rock, Ark., and yot troops have never been called for in the North to suppress violence, nor in the South either, except Where the governor is a carpet-bagger hr Scalawag. We commend Mr. Chedel to the citizens of Hart who have any work in his line as a practical jeweler. Help him along. Elberton District Conference. Convened in Elberton Thursday, morning, 27th July. ..

Mashburn, the minister in charge of the Gillsvillo circuit, has died this year. Ife Was a man of God, full of labors in the vineyard of his Master, and fell at iiis post, worn down to old age, nobly sustaining the Cause of Jesus Christ. Appropriate eulogies Were delivered by several of his brethren in the ministry. Owing to the great scarcity of money iu the Conn try, the support of the ministry was small thus far; yet eVery minister seemed hopeful, and determined to go 4 o'n with renewed zeal, to labor with unremitting energy for the salva tion of souls. Dr. Hnygood, President of the Emory College, was with us, and preached to the people with great power and good effect. He addrossed the conference In the interest of Emory College, showing its thorough organization and equip ment in all its departments to impart instruc tion equal to any institution in the country.

Democratic Nomination. Proceedings of the Democratic Club of Hart County, which met in the court house last first Tuesday, Mon. Jno. G. McOurry chairman, and J. F. Craft sec retary pro tern. On motion, it was resolved that the delegates proceed at once with the nom ination. The roll of delegates being called, the following districts were represented, to wit: 1112th, 13.13 th, 1114th, 1115th, 1117th, 1118th, 1119th. It was moved by Major Skelton that the Reed Creek delegation be referred buck in consequence of irregularities of election of the delegates, which motion was resisted, on the ground that that was a matter for the remainder of the delegates to determine. After some dis cussion the motion was withdrawn. J. H, SkcltoD, Esq., moved the nomi nation be postponed to the first Tues day in September next, and new prima ry elections bs held by that time. After prolonged discussion Maj. Skelton with drew his motion, and announced that he withdrew from tho convention, and that ho would uot be a candidate at all, and hoped the convention would act with perfect harmony. The roll of delegates was again called, and the delegates retired to their room for the purpose of making the nomina tion. In consequence of absentees the num ber of delegates was reduced to 29. The delegates organised by electing Captain John Peek chairman, and Thos. N. McMullen, Esq., secretary. On motion of John B. Benson, the Reed Creek delegates were admitted. § 'Four of the delegotea from Alford’s having refused to participate, P. Proffit, Esq., moved that the remaining delegate be allowed to cast tho vote for the dis triet. Lost. On motion of Hon. A. S. Turner, the two-thirds rule was adopted. On motion of Lee Linder, the con vention proceeded to nominate by bal lot.

Benson having received the two thirds majority, was declared elected. The delegation reported their action to the club, and the proceedings were confirmed amidst tremendous applause A committee of three was appointed to notify Mr. Benson of his nomination and conduct him to the hall. While tho committee was absent the following delegates were elected to rep resent this county in tho Congressional nominating convention, which meets at Thompson, September 6th, to wit: A. G. McCurry and R. E. Sadler. The committee appointed to notify Mr. Benson of his nomination, returned and escorted him to the stand. Mr. Benson, in a short and pointed sdeech accepted the nomination. He was greoted with the warmest enthusiasm, and the greatest harmony and good feel ing prevailed. The meeting then adjourned. J. E. Craft, Secretary pro tern. Our High School. Iu reply to tho resolutions passed by tho trustee? at the close of our school, heartily endorsing tho system and ad ministration cf Prof, and Mrs. Looney, we have received the following: Gilmer, Upshur Cos., Tex. July 2G, 1876. To tho Trustees of tho Hartwell High Schocl. Gentlemen: You havo doubtless al my circular for tho next session of our school. Pleaso accept my your very favorablo andjjommendatory notico of the school. The just appreciation of those for whom we lal or sweetens toil, and engenders a spirit of greater effort in the future. While indifference or neglect on the part of those served is the inevitable death to all enterprises of a public character. It shall therefore be my aim and assiduous endeavor to make tho school still more worthy tho confidence and support of its patrons and tho commendation of its friends: With sentiments of regard and es teem, I am, gentlemen, Your obedient servant, M. V. Looney. Last Saleday. . There was a tremendous crowd in at tendance, it being the day of nomina tion, proving conclusively the predic tion that We have previously mads that a complete revolution is taking place in the minds of the people this year in po litical matters. This change is, - that now the people are going to be heard, and each individual by his vote intends to record his principles. There was no business of importance outside of the meeting and the day passed off very quietly- Delegates were appointed to attend the Congressional convention, which meets at Thompson, on tho 6th of Sep tember next. We hear that the dele gates were unins true ted, but that the motion was made and carried in tLe meeting that the sense of this county is that they go for a "live man " John B. Benson Was unanimously nominated by the Democrats of this county on last sale day, as our representative to the next General Assembly, and we can heartily congratulate the people of this county, that in selection of this gentleman, the result has been to harmonize the people of this county, as there will be scarcely a dissenting voice to his election. Mr. Benson built the first cabin in Hartwell, and opened the first stock of goods in this place. General Blassin game and Major Benson, his grandfath ers, represented Greenville, and his lath er Pendleton, district in the South Ca rolina legislature for a great many years. His father was actively engaged for 56 years in mercantile pursuits, and Mr. Benson has been in the same business for over 40 years. He was elected State Senator from this district in 18G2 and gave entire satisfaction to his constitu ents. After the war, old security debts come against him that he thought had been paid twenty years previously. He sold every foot of land that he possessed with everything else he had wdrth any thing, and also borrowed large amounts of money besides, to pay them. He is now even with the world, besides since the war ho ha3 made and lost two for tunes in this county. He is entirely identified with otir people, knowing the wants of the county, with plenty of common sense and an inexaustible fund of wit and humor. We are satisfied he will make the befit representative that we could possibly have selected. Citi zens of Hart county, let us do our whole duty, and show by the unanimous vote, which will bo cast at the next October election, that the people of this county are a unit in their principles, and that thero is not one single disseutor amongst us. Jail Delivery. Yesterday morning the quiet monoto ny of this town was very seriously inter rupted by tho startling news that the three prisoners in our jail had all made their escape the night precious. The wall of thejj building is built of logs of two thicknesses, and tho inside filled up with small rock. The floor is of heavy logs ; the upper ceiling is of le gs six inches thick. Through the upper ceiling is where the prisoners mrde their exit. With the aid of an auger thoy bored a hole through of one of tho upper logs of about 12 inches in width, and also through the oak planks; after doing which, their escape was comparatively easy, as they had only to go through the weather boarding at the gable end of the building. It is supposed they went out about 10 o’clock on Saturday night last. They left a saw, auger, and file behind, which tools had been furn ished them by confederates from the outside. While they were at work, one of the party beat on the inside door, the noise resembling a bass drum. This was for the purpose of drowning Iroluw ttrno jllilg Litr- DC- ; JH-3S0 1 • - - o iv. tools. This breaking out of our jail is very much to be deprecated, and is exceed ingly humiliating to our county. Steps should bo promptly taken by our next grand jury to have a/new rock jail built. We have one of the most flourishing counties in the State so far as finances are concerned, and could build a jail with comparative ease.. Not a single item of public expenso out of the coun ty treasury, outside of keeping in repair our courthouse—our poor house being self-sUstaining, and we earnestly insist that prompt action should .be taken to give us a safe and secure jail. It is a lamentable fact that since the war there has not been a singlo prisoner of note in jail but has made his escape, and we"have only kept those that did not want to get away. Our principal prisoner this time was Daniel Burroughs, colored, whose of fence was burglary in the night time— breaking open Hodges & McMullen’s mill. • We give tho following description of Daniel: He is about 5 feet high, weighs 135 or 140, is copper colored; he is pleasant spoken, and has a pleasant and somewhat polished manner; and is a Baptist preacher of some note and ability. A Joka on Snidor. Hart County, Ga., Aug. 7, *76. Mr. Editor : As farming has become an old thing, and is not proving very lucrative with our worthy and enterpris ing friend, Warren Jones, I wish to say to the public that he has taken an agen cy,. or is about to, under one of our old citizens for the sale of tar and ax-helves, in order to accumulate losses sustained by the recent freshet, etc, I bespeak for our friend a lively trade, as he is a very energetic man. The tar and ax helves are of the very best quality. Those wishing to purchase would do Well to examine his stock before pur chasing elsewhere. The above goods on exhibition at the cross roads on Cold Water creek, at the old Dodd place. Wyatt Collins. Hew Pajwr. We think a newspaper for the people of this county is about to become a cer tainty. Messrs. Belcher & McGill, two newspaper men of Anderson, S. C., formerly proprietors and editors of tho Sun newspaper of that place, have an nounced that they would commence the issue of a paper here at once. We bespeak for ' them'a hearty sup port from the people of our county, as there has been a general desiro to have a local paper. There'is no better field in Georgia for a paper than Hart county, and with energy and industry on tho part of the proprietors, there can bo no such word as fail. Staid Agricultural Convention. This convention which assembles at Gainesville to-morrow, will be represent ed from this county by a full delegation. F. B. Hodges and T. N. McMullen start to-day, and J. G. McCurry will also be j in attendance. At Sardis Cimrch, Five miles from Hartwell, yesterday, be ing regular preaching day, there was a large crowd in attendance. Services were performed by Rev. Mr. Barton, who delivered a very able and impress ive sermofi His subject was principal ly that of the education and training of the young, and bringing them up in the fear of the Lord. He announced that he would commence a protracted meet ing at this place on next Tuesday, to continue Saturday and Sunday, and perhaps longer. In Ball Sweep. The saw mill of J. W. Brown & Son, at Amandaville, is in full oporation. Work of every conceivable character done “Brown” in *he very .best maimer and with the greatest dispatch. They will also have a fine sorghum mill in operation for the benefit of friends and neighbors. Gall and see him.

Having been badly afflicted with Salt Rheum, and the w r hole surface of my skin being covered with “pimples and eruptions, many of which caused me great pain and annoyance, and know ing it to be a blood disease, I took many of the advertised blood preparations, among which was any quantity of Sarsaparilla, without obtaining any benefit until I commenced taking tho Vege tine, and before I had completed the first bottle I saw that I had got the right medicine. Conse quently, I followed on with it until I had taken seven bottles, when 1 was pronounced a well man, and my skin is smooth and entirely free from pimples and eruptions. I have never en joyed so good health before, and I attribute it ail to the use Vegetine. To benefit thosebifflict ed with Rhematism, I will make mention also of the Vegetine’s wonderful power of curing me of this accute complain of which I have suffered so intensely. C. H. TUCKER, Pas.
