F. Wheeler, who represented that he bad been sent out to prooure carpenters and masons to do bridge work on the Cin cinnati Southern Railway. He wanted three hundred hands, and promised such wages as mechanics have not lately ob tained. He had no trouble whatever in obtaining hands.

He has fled and left his board bill unpaid —Comtitution: Wednesday night, Mr. George Cates was mortally wounded by Jake Ballew, about four miles from Lawrenceville.

Ballew was arrested and lodged in jail. —Valdosta Times : It is noticeable that more stock die in March than in any other three months in the year,and Maroh is the month for the wholesale burningof the woods. As soon as a fresh “burn” is made the cattle, after a depleting and severe winter, are attracted for miles by tho aroma of the budding grasses, and they gather in large quantities on the “burns” before the grass has grown enough to afford a sustenance. They jrill remain, unless driven away, until they die of aolual starvation, or, should they stand the rack of hunger for a few weeks, until the grass has grown onougli to fatten upon. This is the reason why so many oattle die in Maroh. —Henry County Register: A tew weeks since our town was invaded by an itine rant humbug, in the person of one “Pro fessor” J. T. Willis, “Ornament Teach er," eto. He lingered for several days, during which time he employed himself iu the laudable endeavor to impress upon the minds at our people tha importance of patronizing the fine arts, as taught by “Prof.” Willis. Boms of our eitizsns, prompted mors by a feeling of eharity than any thing else, consented to take lessons. He frolicked around several days on the money thus earned, and final ly decamped, leaving his board bill un paid, besides a number of smaller ac counts, among which was one due this office. Whether he will ever gain distinc tion as an “artist,” we know not and care less; but we do know that by his oondnet here he has won, and oertainly deserves, the title of “artful dodger." —Chattanooga has had a sensation in the arrival of a Dr. Kendall, who had eloped with a Mrs. Berg and child from Ohio. Learning that Berg was on his track, Kendall left with his newly ac quired possessions, and, going via Dal ton, in this State, doubled on his traok and went baok into Tennessee. Berg, accompanied by a deteotive, suc ceeded in traoing up the fugitives, and when he found thorn agreed for $125 to dismiss all his suits against Dr. Ken dall and taka his wife and child baok to Dayton, Ohio, and then, surrender up all olaim to them. The agreement was in writing. Dr. Kendall had to foot Berg’s lawyer’s fees, and purchased tickets for the wife and ohild to go baok home. Mrs. Berg and her child didn’t want to leave Dr. Kendall. Berg believes that if he gets his wife baok to Dayton he can overoome her infatuation, while Dr. Kendall pro. poses to get divorced from his wife and marry Mrs. Berg.

Wheat is said to be looking well, and arrangements are making for a large cotton crop.

This Dansler eseaped from the penitentiary, where he had been sentenced for three years for a burglary- committed in Baldwin oounty last year.

The average number planted on an acre is about 1,400, wbioh would em brace an area of over 214 acres planted this year in grape. Over 150,000 pounds of wool have been shipped from Cullman during the last twelve months to differ ent factories in the North. Several of the new settlers are going extensively into the sheep railing business. The Bomanco of • Mlllloimlre Duchess. A new obapter has been added to the singular romance in real life of the great ( Galiera estate and its heir. The clever 1 Duke (twice a Duke) who increased it so enormously, was a remarkable man in his way. His son, Phillip Ferrari, who is so thorough-placed a Radioal that he refuses to acoept two ducal titles and a property like that of the Vanderbilts or the Astors, by inheritance from his father, is a still more remarkable man in his way. And now it comes to light that the widow of the first and mother of the seoond of these singular personages is herself a re markable woman in her way. She was a daughter of the splendid Genoese bouse of Brignole-Sale, and inherited in bor own right a splendid fortune. She was presented at court in Paris in the days of Louis Phillippe, and that keen-witted old King and his match-making Queen treat ed her with extraordinary attention, part ly because of her illustrious lineage, partly because of her “beaux yeux,” and partly beoause of her mil lions. She fell desperately in love with their youngest son, the Duke of Montpensier; and as King Louis Philippe and Queen Amelia wore by no means sure that they would succeed in humbugging England * and marrying Montpensier to the child-sister of Isabella of Spain, they enoouraged Millie. Brig- noln-Sale as a second string to his prinoo- ly bow. Bnl Guizot achieved his purpose. The Duke married his Spanish princess; and the Genoese heiress, disgusted with life, gave her hand and fortune to her countryman, Ferrari, Duke of Galiera. Now that her husband has died, and that her son obstinately refuses to aocept his inheritance, the widowed Duchess finds herself overburdened with wealth. She has accordingly, in a fit of retrospective sentiment as rare as are her means of in dulging, deliberately bestowed an estate near Bologna, in Italy, worth $2,000,000, or 10,000,000 of franoes, on her first love, the Duke of Montpensier, who jilted her for a Princess thirty years ago,and is now the stout au,d opulent head of a family of young Bourbon Princes, at Seville I Her son has made no objection; but the most interesting fact in the story is that the Dnke of Montpensier, so far as known, makes no objection himself! The Orleans Princess never could reaiat the “jingling of a guinea.” That Hollow Cotjgh cured by this new principle. Dr. J. H.
