of fteorgid,
We are gratified to note the failure cf
the Atlanta Doctors to abolish the time-
honored Board of Physicians, (of the
Alopathic School of Medicine) which has
for nearly a half century met nrmuallv in
the city of Milledgeville, fertile purpose
of examining and licensing Physicians
and Apothecaries. A bill to repeal the
Section of the Code organizing the
Board, and from which they derived
their power, passed the House of Repre
sentatives,and would probably have pass-
e d the Senate also, but for the earnest
and timely efforts of Dr. T. S. Powell
df Atlanta, whose energy as a man and
ability as a physician is well known, aided
and seconded by the active co-operation of
Drs. White and Hall, President a d Vice
President of the Board, whose reputations
as physicians give them a wide influence
throughout the country, another old and
honored institution of tive State would
have been swept away, simply, we sup
held its !11U1, ™1 sessions
in Milldflgeville.
We are happy to state that the Board
. exists, land has extended its ses
sion till the first of June next, to allow
ample time to all non graduate Phvsicians
and Apothecaries to apply f or examina-
tion and license. At the eloso of the
session the names of licentiates will be
published and the law enforced against
those who neglect or refuse to obtain
license.

Accidental Killing.
A negro boy about sixteen years of age was acci
dentally shot and killed nt the Bridge, near the city,
on the 24: h inst., by Mr- Fayette I. Echols, the lessee
of the Bridge. Some joking occurred between the
parties/when Mr. Echols picked up a pistol to fright-
en the boy, which the boy grasped in such a manner
a9 to fire off, the ball passing through his head
and killing him almost instantly. Coroner W. S.
Scott held an inquest and a verdict of accidental kill
ing was returned. Mr. Echols is a kind-hearted gen
tleman and the unfortunate accident gives him great
pain, which we certainly desire not to increase by any
sermonizing about the careless handling of file arms,
and only retuaik generally, we regret that the pistol
is so much of a play thing with all classes ot our peo

axe, across the nose, just above tlie eyes, which bled
profusely. Dr. White pressed the vein, seated+iin in
a chair, sponged off the blood, pressed the cut togeth
er and applied Collodion with a brush, uniting and
forming a false skin ever it. and iu about one minute
the youngster was ‘all right' and ready for the next

Baldwin Superior Court.
The February Term of the Superior
Court of our county was in session all of
last w eek, and despatched a large amount
of business. Enough, however, was left
on the docket to make an adjourned term
necessary—which will be held on the 5tli
Monday (30th day) of the present month,
March.
Among the interesting cases disposed
at the recent term we may mention the
following :
Stats vs. William Little, Tom Harris
and Henry Solomon, indicted for burgla
ry in breaking into the store of the late
E. Barnett in Milledgeville. Solicitor
General J. W. Preston for the State, and
Messrs. Sanford and Furman, and Craw
ford and Williamson for defendants.
Prisoners (all colored) were convicted and
sentenced to the Penitentiary as follows:
Little, 20 years ; Harris 10 years, and
Solomon 4 years. The last was accessa-
y after the fact.
The colored “brethren" named Augus
tus Mason and William Mason were ac
quitted of an indictment charging a larce
ny upon them. Sol r Gcn’l Preston and
Capt. T. W. White for the State, Messrs
Sanford k Furman for the defendants.
The property alleged to have been stolen
in this case was a turkey, and time, De
cember! Was it a Christmas trick 1
On the Civil docket, P. T. Taylor vs
Sterling Wombold, resulted in ‘ verdict
for Plaintiff, Messrs. McKinley and
Briscoe for Plaintiff and Sanford and
Furman for defendant.
Also, R. H. Ramsay vs. A. F. Wynne
verdict for plaintiff^ Messrs McKinley
and McAdoo for pl’ff. and Messrs. San
ford and Furman for defendant.
Some interesting “cross-prosecutions’
were adjusted, and went off the docket
without trial. We observed quite anuin
ber of legal gentlemen from other local!
ties in attendance: Col. W. A. Lofton and
Hon. Jas. Jackson from Macon; Hon. A.
T. Akerman of Cartersville; Col. C. W.
Dubose of Sparta; J. W. Lindsey Esq., of
Irwinton and Thos. G. Lawson of Eaton-
ton. Our local bar were in attendance
“in force,” Hon. W. W. Williamson, our
worthy Representative in the Legislature,
having arrived at the “eleventh hour,”
last Friday.

School, to come oft" at the Senate Cham

iff with Diamonds.
Mrs. William B. Astor, of New York
city* illustrated the expression almost
literally at a party given by her one even
ing last week. On each of her shoulders
she-had four-stars, the size of silver half
dollars, made of diamonds. Her hair
was set thickly with diamonds, and her
head seemed aflame with them. There
was a diamond bandeau upon her brow.
She had diamond earrings and a diamond
necklace of magnificent proportions,
upon the two sides of her chest were two
circles of diamonds about the size of
the palm of the hand. From them de
pended lines and curves of diamonds
reaching to her waist, around which she
wore a diamond girdle. On the skills of 1
hex dross in front were two large pea
cocks, wrought of lines of diamonds.
There Mere rosettes of diamonds on her
slippers. There [were diamonds, lar ge or
small, but in every variety and form, all
over her dress and person, wherever
they could be artistically placed. She
presented an extraordinary dazzling
spectacle. A connoisseur in precious
stones, who was present, says the dia
monds she wore could not have cost less
a million dollars.

This institution lifts achieved a success
which is unparalleled in the history of
Commercial Colleges. Star ting in Atlanta
Ga., May 9th, 1871, with four students, it
has already sent out to the business world
nearly THREE HUNDRED STUDENTS
to attest its superior merits. The secret
of its wonderful success is, 1st. it is the
only College in the South that is conduc
ted on the Actual Business Plan. 2nd, it
keeps up, to the letter of its advertise
ments; 3d, it is conducted by men who
have had years of experience as practical
accounts, business men and teachers. The
total cost for a full course, including
board, washing,tuition, books and station

A Paper Wad for the Lawyers to Chew.
For some days past, we have heard
startling rumors of a man from North
Carolina who had come to the Gate City
with a land grant, with beeswax attach
ments that bore upon its worn and anti
qnated face the unwelcome evidence of the
feet that “all tliat portion of Atlanta situ
ate, lying and being, over, around, and
among,” the Kimball House, Whitehall
street, and Dan Shehane’s, was not the
property of its owners, but by -right of
the peculiar indentions on the aforesaid
beeswax, and other uncertain transcrip
tions, belonging to a party wlio had, up
to a recent period, ate, drank and slept
in all the bliss of unconscious wealth.
who is he ?
The possessor of “lot No. 77, contain

that if he succeeds, this great Sodom

Camp is a native of North Carolina, but

made the most diligent inquires to-day of
every one who is likely to know anything
of this matter, and we have failed to elicit
any further facts than those we have de

pushing the matter to a thorough exam
ination and ascertain whether the cliarges

the effect.
We visited the real estate men and
owners of the fragmentary portions of
the aforesaid “No. 77,” and upon ques
tioning them closely, found that there
was no depression in the market value of
the aforesaid lands; and that holders were
easy, relying, to a great extent, upon the
statute of limitation, and the legal theory
of seven years peaceable possession. As
to what course the litigant will pursue in
the matter, we are also unable to learn.
We were informed that a survey would
be necessary in order to ascertain the ex
act lines and in consequence of houses,
tenements, etc., it would necessitate the
services of an aeronaut, as the line could
only be traced direct through the air
from one point to another.
Should we be able to glean any further
facts in regard to this case, and there is
a likelihood of a litigation, we will collect
all the facts, historical, biographical and
categorical, connected with the case, and
give them to our readers in full.

EDWARD J. EVANS & CO., YORK, PA,
In this issue of our jmper we depart
somewhat, perhaps from our general rale,
in representing the business of the above
firm, but probably many of our city read
ers, at least, do not comprehend the util
ity nor vastness of this branch of trade.
Nature is the greatest and most beautiful
adomer of this world, far exceeding all
man’s feeble attempts of beautifying earth;
while years ago one might travel and
see and love those beautiful shrubs and
flowers of the foreign world, amble amidst
groves of lovely trees, and eat the lu
scious fruits of other climes; we can now
with little expense have all these tilings
right at our houses. The firm of Evans
k Co., was established in 1857, and
though began with perhaps exceedingly
unfavorable circumstances, and insigni
ficant local patronage, the business has
through the energy and perseverance of
the firm, and satisfactory business re
lations with all their customers, reached
a magnitude that places it as one of the
first Nurseries of the State; their busi
ness extending both in the State, and
through the Southern and Southwestern
portions of the United States. They deal
in and furnish every variety of.
FLOWER AND GARDEN SEED,
the choicest varieties of Fruit Trees a-
dapted to'.the Middle and Southern States;
Grape Vines, Small Fruits, Shrubs, &c.,
and every description -of Ornamental
Trees, in fact everything in their line of
business, both of Foreign and Domestic
Varieties. This firm makes a specialty of
furnishing Flowers and Gar-den Seeds by
mail, and the railroad facilities, and coast
shipment for West and South, are so
good that there is no delay in delivery of
goods. Not being entirely devoted to
the Horticultural, they also furnish Agri
cultural Seed Oats, Potatoes, Com, Ac.;
also deal extensively in Bulbs, Flowering
and Bedding Plants, and are likewise a-
gents for Terra-cotta Vases, Statuary,
Ac., as well as all sizes of Drain Pipes, in
feet every article connected with the busi
ness can be obtained here; and the gen
tlemen composing the firm are thoroughly
and practically acquainted with their
business, and will be found prompt and
upright in their dealings. They invite
inspection of their stock by purchasers
in this market, and from all parts of uie
country. Circulars and information fur
nished on application; and satisfaction
guaranteed to the trade and others.—

PARKER Sf FEARS,
AND
OF
PRATT’S ASTRAL OIL.
Absolutely safe. Perfectly odorless. Always uni
form. Illuminating qualities superior to gas. Burns
in any lamp Without danger of exploding or taking
fire. Manufactured expressly to displace the use of
volatile and dangerous oils. Its safety unoer every
possible test, and its perfect burning qualities, are
proved by its continued use in over 300,000 families.
Millions of gallons have been sold and no accident
—directly or indirectly—has ever occured from
burning, storing oi handling it.
The immense yearly loss to life and property, result
ing from the use of cheap and dangerous oils in the
United States, is appalling.
The Insurance Companies and Fire Commissioners
throughout the country recommend the ASTRAL as
the best safeguard when lamps aie used. Send for
circular.
For sale at retail by the trade generally, and at
wholesale by the proprietors, CHAS- PRATT Sc CO ,
