•ays: ‘-The Ordinary has been repeatedly
recommended to have tbe court house in
sured against fire; also tbe public library.

generally, and recommend that legal steps
be taken at once to enforce this officer to
discharge the duties imposed upon him by
his office.'’ There is a balance in the

against the Treasurer is of an unusual
character, in that the errors found ill the
books are against himself and iu layer of
'lie county.
An important point was decided by the
County Commissioner* of Floyd Tuesday,
the road commissioners of the Hooded
districts had not been able to inspect eer.
lain roads completed by contractors, on
account of the floods and when the waters
were down the work in many places was
demolished, and the road commissioners
could not accept the roads. The County
Commissioners Tuesday decided to allow
road commissioners to make full state
ment ol (acts on each account, and then
tlio contractor and the people are to have
the right to introduce oral testimony to
show whether the road had or nad not
been worked. Upon the preponderance
ol that testimony the case will bed* cided.
These cases are set for tue lirst Monday in
May.
In Wilkinson countv there is a balance
in the treasury of s.s,9;His, which moves

of our agriculture and other branches of
business Hie necessity of the most rigid
ecynomy in the public as well as private
expenditures and believing from thecou
dition In wuicli we find the county
finances, that an assessment of 100 per
cent, on the State tax, with the amounts
of cash in and yet duo the Treasurer, will
raise revenue sufficient to pay the ex
penses of the county until the eud of the
fiscal year coding October, 1887, we rec
ommend the proper authorities to lew an
assessment ol luo per cent, ou the Mato
tax|for the vear 188 C, for county purposes."
Preparations are being made in Floyd
Bounty tor the election on the issuance of
bonds. Eighty bonds of the denomination
ol SSOO have to he mentioned, each by the
number and time to run. The first run
ten years, the next for eleven years and
*o on until the last run thirty years, mak
ing *411,000 of bonds. Mayor Ayer, of
Home, says that if the Commissioners aro
not allowed by the voters to issue the !
bonds they will he bound by law
to levy at once enough tax to
build the bridges. Any respectable citi
zen could ask the Superior Court for a
mandamus compelling the Commissioners
to rebuild the bridges, ami tbe court
would have no otoer alternative but to
issue the mandamus. The Supreme Court
has decided that for the purpose of build
ing bridges the Commissioners have un
limited power of taxation.
At Atlanta Tuesday the jury in
the case of Miss Mary E. Tatum
vs. the Gate City Gas Light Com
pany, gave her a verdict of $5,400 dam
ages. The gas company is not satisfied

passing by Mr. C. W. Barry's store on
Decatur street when the explosion ot gas
occurred, killitiga negro woman and bad
ly injuring several other parties. Tbe
proprietor of the store had his I ft leg bro

which was nearly demolished. He got
s3,ooodamages. Emma Gates, a negro,
was injured and died a few days after

(or $1,200 from the gas company. A negro
named Henry Johnson got a verdict for
$225. One or two other cases are still
pending in the Superior Court. Miss Ta
tum is very badlv disfigured, and sued lor
$20,000.
A rather singular thing was brought
out in the City Court at Macon, Tuesday.
During the March term of the court the
case of the State vs. Stripling, for selling
whisky to a minor, was taken up. The
defendant demanded a jury trial. Among
the jurors drawn was' W". C. Jones, and
he desired to have \V. B. Jobson serve as
a substitute. While Clerk Nisbet was
busv with the lists, Jobson, who was un
known to the Clerk, said he would serve
for Jones. TheCierk asked Judge Harris
if such was the agreement, and the Judge
answered no. Jobson. however, misun
derstood affairs, and when Jones’
name was called answered to it. The case
went to trial and Stripliug was convicted
and fined S3OO and costs. Several other
cases were tried, and each time Jobson
answered to tbe name of Jones. He was
of the impression that as he was a substi
tute for Jones, he should answer to Jones’
name. In none of the cases but that of
Stripling were there any convictions. A
few days after the trial it was discovered
that Jones was not on the jury, and a mo
tion was made for anew trial on the above
ground. The motion was heard Tuesday
and Judge Harris reserved his decision.

overthrow of that party in 1876. No man
ever ottered greater resistance to tbe
Democracy in this State than Capt. Green
did iu bis section. It was through his
advice that Stearns attempted to deprive
the people of Manatee county of the right
ot suffrage in IH7G. He succeeded Iu ;
having tho vote of this county rejected
by the notorious State canvassing ,
board, so as to give the electoral
vote of Florida to Hayes, aud to
defeat George F. Drew for Gov
ernor. Aided by L. G. Dennis he suc
ceeded in the former, but failed in tbe
latter undertaking. Neither of these
staunch and vigorous partisans were
afterwards rewarded by Hayes for their,
work, and neither ever afterwards cx- I

“grand old party.” Capt. Green was al
native of Anderson county. S. C„ and 1

Union army at Key West at the outbreak
of tho war, aud was made a captain of

A. Marriage with Some Novel Fea
tures.
From the Albany Ula.) F*w* and Advertiser.
A few days ago it became our pleasant
duty to chronicle a romantic wedding in
Worth county. To-day we are called
upon to give publicity to another, which
although not altogether so romantic, bas
its peculiar features. The incident, as
recited to us by Mr. James Brown, is in
substance this:
Several months ago, Mr. G. M. Dupree,
who resides near Warwick, Worth
county, and quite a venerable widower,
more than 60 years old, possessing eight
children and eighteen grandchildren, re
quested his friend, Mr. Jim Hobby, to se
lect for him a gentle help-meet, so that
his descent down the bill of life would be
sweet and pleasant.
Mr. Hobby, to whom was entrusted this
delicate mission, asked for some instruc
tions or data by which he was to be gov
erned in the precious undertaking. He
was told to not make his selection from
girls in their teens, as they were likely to
be giddy, but to look among the “old
girls,” and select a “chunky” one.
Hobby beat about for some time, bent
on doing his best for his old friend; and
was sorely discomfited in not finding at
once tbe old girl who would fill the bill of
requirements.
At length, after many days, he met tbe
object ol tiis search, a maiden of 33 sum
mers—a Miss Sallie Jones—one who would
“fill the bill,” and upon whom tbe old
man would lovingly dote.
Mr. Hobby was'confronted with one
difficulty, which much perplexed him—
the lady was not “chunky” at all, but
the other way, but was so engaging and
winsome that he disliked to pass by so
excellent an opportunity to serve bis old
friend.
He found his wav out of the distressing
dilemma by boldly opening the subject,
and to his gratification she was not
“offish” a bit, but took kindly to the prop
osition.
Hobby then made baste to communicate
with his old friend and tell what great
things he bad done. Dupree directed him
to proceed with the courtship, and thus
the affair was arranged for the happy un
ion.
About two weeks since Mr. Dupree
called on Miss Jones for the first time,
when the engagement was ratified.
Three subsequent visits followed, and
the happy event was consummated on
April 15 at the residence of Mrs. Me Han
non. sister of the bride, and, following the
example of story writers, we let the cur
tain fall.
H. \V. Barre Acquitted.
From tho Albany ( Ga.) Few* and Advertiser.
H. \V. Barre, former ageut of the Bruns
wick and Western railroad in this city,
who was committed to jail the latter part
of last summer upon the charge of embez
zlement, was set free Tuesday afternoon.
His counsel oaugbt the prosecuting coun
sel napping, or rather took advantage of
an oversight upon their part, and asked
the court for a verdict, after ail the State's
evidence bad been submitted. The point
raised by defendant’s counsel was that
the prosecution had failed to produce the
certificate from the Kxecntive Depart
ment of the State showing the Brunswick
and Albany railroad had its name changed
to the Brunswick and Western railroad,
whose money Barre was charged to have
embezzled. The court sustained tbe point
and ordered the jury to render a verdict
of acquittal. The court stated that the
evidence was sufficient to carry the case
on but for thp failure of the prosecution
to submit the certificate above referred to.
Barre appeared on the streets a few
minutes alter be was given his liberty,
and seemed to be the same jolly, good
natured, loquacious fellow that he was
before he went to jail. IBs former asso
ciates and the “boys about town” gener
ally greeted him kindly, and ho received I
many congratulations from idem.
Became iu to seo tbe .Xeinx and Adver
tiser folks, and when asked by one of the
scribes how he felt, he said, “Well, 1
never did feel like I was guilty.”
Baptist Women in Convention.
The Baptist women of Georgia held the

Prior Ware’s Fox Farm.
Fro Vi the Waeh ivQtnn (Oil.) Chronicle.
The Chronicle reported some tune ago
that i’eter Ware had live young foxes mat
had been adopted by a dog, and he is now
receiving letters from different sections of
tin l country, with proposals to buy them.
The first lot need no further’ attention
from their kind stepmother; and Peter
has found six younger ones, which she
adopted readily, and is now nursing until
they tiuish teething. Three of these are
gray foxes, the others red. It would be a
good plan lor Pater to make a buslne-s of
raising foxes, as be was offered $1 apiece
tor the first five, and it Is whispered that
be is trying to make a corner on them.
A Diamond Pin,
From the A then* (ffi.) Banner- Watchman.
One of the students of the univeisity
wears a diamond pin that has a history.
The grandfather of the student was a
dealer in slaves, and seeing one of the
voting girls with a diamond pin, asked
her where she got it, and what, she would
take for it. The girl informed him that she
had picked it up on the streets of Mont
gomery, Ala., and that sue would take a
red handkerchief for tbediamond. It was
purchased for $5, and now adorns the
shirt-front of the stuaeut. ,
DEVOURED BY CATS.
A Horrible Sequel to the Rising Fawn
Flood.
One ot the most horribla stories beard
for a loug time comes from Rising Fawn.
Ga. it will be remembered that during
the recent floods the waters rushed into
the mines at Rising Fawn so rapidly that
one ot the miners, a man named Bennett,
was caugnt before be could escape and
was drowned. A constant watch was
maintained, so that as soon as the waters
receded the body could lie recovered.
However, when those detailed to recover
the body made the effort when the waters
went down they found to their utter dis
may and horror that a swarm of cats had
taken possession of the place, mid it was
impossible to approach the place with or
without lights.
Since then it was discovered that all tbe
cats in the neighborhood are missing, and
it is presumed that during the night they
have followed their terrible instincts and
sought refuge in the mine where they re
gale themselves ou the dead body of the
unfortunate mao.
Repeated efforts bavo been made to
reach the body, but the fierce and horrible
defense made by the cats prevents the ef
forts from being successfully carried out.
Armed parties have approached, and by
continual firing tried to frighten the cats
off, but it was impossible. In addition to
this several dynamite bombs were thrown
in bu f these had no i fleet whatever upon
the army of malicious felines.
A gentleman who was at Rising Fawn
said that tbe stories told of this strange
affair are most dreadful to bear, and that
those who had visited the mines reported
the stench arising front the dead body to
be stifling. In almost every direction the
bright, shining eyes of tho hundreds of
cats gleamed trom out the darkness, while
their veils and screams were so unearth !y
as to make one's flesh creep.

Forty Years a Sufferer from
CATARRH!
WONDERFUL TO RELATE.
For forty years I have been a victim to Ca
tarrh— tbree-lourths of the. time a sufferer
from excruciating pains across my forehead
and my nostrils. The discharges were so
offensive that X hesitate to mention it. except,
for the good it may do some olhersiifferer. I
have spent a young fortune from my earnings
during my forty years of suffering to obtain
relief from the doctors. I have tried patent
medicine-—everyone I could learn of—from
the four corners of the earth, with no relief.
And at last i.W years of age) have met with a
remedy that has Cured me entirely—made me
anew man. f weighed 128 pounds and now
weigh 146. 1 used thirteen bottles of the
medicine, and tho only regret I have is that
