ON SUSPICION.
G eorgia, thomas county.
Taken up on suspicion, a man who assigns his name
Dr. T. J. Franklin Mitchell, who this community sus
pects and believes to be guilty of having been committing
many egregious and unlawful offences, to wit: that of being
concerned with Indians, Negroes, or others, in committing
murders and robbing; and from his tn t being able to give a
satisfactory account of himself, suspect him to be guilty of
many outrages. We would het e observe, that from evidence,
he has denied positive facts, with regard to his private char
acter, which further creates suspicion; also, he was found
traveling through the woods in this county, near tlie place
where a family was killed in Irwin county, recently; also,
near where a Mr. Hancock, lives in this county, and who
was shot at with three guns, though no damage done ex
cept that of plundering and burning his house; he i3 a man
of quite bad countenance; bis arm is wounded aud now
wears a band constantly ; his supposed age is 40 to 50 years ;
stout and heavy built; will weigh from 160 to 180 pounds.’
Information also has reached, that such a character has been
adverti*ed, and a reward of some considerable amount.
Perhaps it would be proper to remark, that it is his left arm
which is lamed. The said Mitchell taught school in the
upper part of this county some two vears since, for a short
time. He was delivered to me for detention in Jail till he
should give some honorable account of himself If he has
any friends who know him to be clear of said charges, they
are requested to give immediate information; also, if any
person know any thing against his character, he will much
oblige by such infoimation, stating the particulars.

Hill, P. O., in Laurens county, about the first of Feb
ruary last, an African Negro Fellow, named GEORGE,
has two front teeth out, quick spoken, about 40 years of age,
and of middle size. Said Negro was once owned in Chat

STOP THE THIEF! STOP THE THIEF !
S TOLEN from tlie Subscriber’s Stable, in Jasper county
on the night of the 13th June, a likely roan Horse, wita
black mane and tail. He is a remarkable looking horse,
about fifteen hands and a half high, well limbed, and muscled
extremely broad across the forehead between the eyes, has
a good neck, and very long foretop and mane. He paces,
but is a natural trottor.
It is highly probable the said horse was taken by a man
who loitered about in tbe settlement some time since, selling
a negro that proved to be one he stole from Marengo coun
ty, Ala. This thief called his name John Garot, is abont 5
feet several inches high, abont 30 years old, black hair, dark
complexion, has lost a bit of his right ear, round shouldered
and has a peculiar walk.
A liberal reward will be paid for any useful information
or delivery of the horse at Hillsborough, in the above named
county, and auy amount will be paid for the apprehension
of the thief. WILLIAM M. STOKES.

and tail, the mane laying on the left side, a little drooped
rump, some saddle spots on her back, some of her feet white,
and could pace a little, just learning. She ranaway or was
stolen from the subscriber on the 29th day of July, 1839, in
