u opportunity of enjoying such
leiisant enlerlaininenls ns those nf-
>rded them bv Prof. Itynn and his
talented son Itoll.-i al Willingham's

ings. Although they came upon us
unheralded, the audiences on hoth Or
ion- a ere eompo.-ed of some of otlr
-t .intelligent and appreciative
•pic. ami the Itvaii- won a reputa
tion enviable indeed. Should they
•ver come this way again, full houses
will greet them. Considering his age
do not believe the younger Ityan-
tragedian, eominedian, or facial

■tage. We expect to "hear from
him" one of these days.

A OimmI Doriinienl.
AA'hile in Calhoun last week, during
tin; session of Court, it was remarked
to us by an attorney of shrewd in
sight and common sense acumen that,
the Grand Jury was as fine a body
of men, singularly and collectively,
as he had ever seen drawn out of the
Jury box of any county. To read I lie
document they present lo their peo
ple, published in another column,
you agree in totn to vvhat the attor
ney said. It shows upon its face Rome
good, earnest, careful work for the
county's constituency, ami clearly
presents even to a casuist in thought
ful minds that made the paper.
Some important recommendations
and conclusions arc given; but we
don't propose to synnp.-i/c, so read.
In reference to the recommenda
tions given the News oil account of
its general circulation, ns best suited
as the official organ of the county,
we most humbly bow our acknowl
edgements. and return many, ninny
thanks. AVe propose for our paper
to ever have a high and noble stand
ard of journalism, ami to be hold,
fearless, unswerving and unbending
in its course. AVe aim to work for,
battle for and sustain our section of
country, lo give a live, newsy, pro
greasive. well-balanced, well-edited
paper, and to these ends will ever
use our energies. The recom
mendation of the Callmmi Grand
Jury is an appreciation that we will
not forget.
To the worthy gentlemen who en
tered the protest we make our obeil-
anre, and say we do not bluine them at
all. but rather commend them. If we
mistake not, a majority out of the five
sire originally Early county people,
and thus it is explained.
New Militia District.
The Board nl' Commissioners of
Ronds and Revenues of Calhoun coun
ty has given notice that a new Militia
District has been formed and laid on:
of the Xorth end of tln-tiSfilh District,
G. M., of said county, bounded on
the North by the Terrell county line;
East by the Chiekasawhnteliie creek;
AVest by tlie Ilehaway-Xotchaway
creek, and on the South by the laud
line running east between lots Nos.
182 and 178 on east and lots Nos. lPl
and 167 on west side. The same liar-
been entered on the mi not os of the
Board, and forwarded to the Govern
or, and numbered by him as Militia
District 1301.

Tribute of Respect.
Tlie Atigel of death lias summoned
to the throne of Jehova one, whose
loss we deeply mourn.
The devotional piety, the implicit
trust our departed sister reposed in
the tiod of onr Fathers led her safety
over the rugged paths of her earthly
destiny, 'ameliorated her bodily suf
ferings anil upheld her in the 'hours
of trials ami sorrow.
Mrs. Mariana Grass rests by the
side of her son, who in the bloom of
youth left his bereaved parents to be
wail his loss; she reposes by the side
of her husband who was called from
her side by the inexorable decree of
Providence, when sickness had chain
ed her to the bed of sufferings, when
two little orphans looked up to her
for comfort mid sustenance.
Drinking life everlasting and eter
nal joy out of the pure fountain of
her spotless life, freed from its earth
ly fetters, her spirit soars iu regions
celestial, oonsumating the union en
tered into upon earth, mid now sealed
in Heaven.
The Angel of Peace and divine con
solation will hover over the bereaved
family anil |mur comfort into the
bleeding hearts of the orphans sob

God of Isreal, the God of tin- afHined

Gi-nud .Jury Presentments.
Hl'l.'ivu TERMCU.HOUN Sl'PF.RIOR COURT.
AVe, ihe Grand Jury, chosen and
sworn at tlie March Term, 1878, Cal
houn Superior Court, respectfully
submit the following General Pre
sentments:
AVe have, through a committee on
Public Buildings, found some repairs
needed on the Jail, to-wlt: Anew
lock on tlie outside door, also a break
in the weather-boarding, needs re
placing, and we recommend that said
repairs be made as early aa possible.
AVe find that the Court house needs
Rome improvements, which we recom
mend be looked after by the proper
authorities.
AVe here report the roads and
bridges of the county in excellent con
dition, with some exceptions. The
road leading from Leary to Milford is
iu bad order, notin consequence, how
ever, ol‘ remissness of duty on the
part of the Road Commissioner*, but
owing to the fact the road puses
through a low, dat section for some
miles, and that said road Is a new-cut
road, not having been in existence
long enough to have been packed by
travel. AVe also find on the road
leading from Leary to Timmons’
bridge, two smsll bridges needing re
pairs, and we call the attention of
the Commissioners of Roads and Rev
enues to the necessity ofpurehulng
lumber for repairing said bridges
after which we recommend that the
Road Commissioners of the 3d Dis
trict proceed at ones to put. la order
tsid bridges.
The Committee ou Public Roads
find the books of the various officers
of the county, including the Ordina
ry and Treasurer, Clerk of the Court,
bhcrlff and County School Commis
sioner, Judge of the County Court
aud Commissioners of Roads and
Revenues, neatly kept and having the
appearance of beiug correctly kept.—
The books of the Justices or the
Peace we also rind in proper condi
tion, except a slight omission in the
books of the Magistrate for the 3d
District, who has failed for some
months past to enter up and itemise
as required by law, on his docket
cases disposed'of, and respectfully
call his attention to this omission.
AVe find that Ills Honor, J. J. Berk,
Judge of ihe County Court, and the
Solicitor James Keel, Esq., have tried
and disposed of since last term of the
Superior Court, twenty-eight crimi
nal cAses s follows: 13 found guilty;
i nolprosed for wout of evidence; 4
settled and suspended^ and six not
guilty. Fines imposed by this Court
amount to |61,7S: which has been col
lected and secured by notes not due,
which will be collected and properly
disbursed. AVe rind upon examina
tion of the records and vouchers of
the County School Commissioner
the following creditable and highly
approved showing with the public
School funds of 1877:

There will be nine colored schools,'
308 pupils enrolled, with an average
attendance of 187-16-60. There being
a vacancy in the Board of Education,
we have' supplied said vacancy by
electing three members whose term
of office is for four years. Dr. P. P.
Geer, of the 4th district, Mr. AV. J.
Horsley, of tlie 3d district, and Jos.
G. Collier, Esq., a new member from
the 1,283rd district, have been choseq
by this body for that purpose.
’ AVe have also recommended J. J;
Beck, as Judge of the County Court,
and James Keel, aa Solicitor, and
have the honor of requesting his Ex
cellency, A. II. Colquitt, Governor of
the State, to appoint the above named
gentlemen to their respective posi
tions in accordance with the action of
this body.

report, supported by a sworn state
ment, that the Clerk has in hand #2-50

AVe append to these Presentments
the affidavits of County officers, not
however, for tlie purpose of having
them printed us a part of these pre
sentments, but as suitable papers for
record in the Clerk’s office.
AVe find the value of the entire tax
