Mr. Charlie Nelson died in Oglethorpe, Ga.. yesterday, of typhoid fever. He le l here only a few days ago to visit his mother, Ivho lives in Oglethorpe. He was in the employ of the Colum bia Iron Works Company at the time he was taken sick, and left for his former home for a lit tle rest and recreation. He was a genial, warm hearted and upright young man, and had a large number of friends here who will learn of his death with profound sorrow. He was for a long time purser on the steamers of the Central line on the Chattahoochee river. The flay It Works. Hunday there appeared in the Enqijker-Sun a short, modest advertisement of John Disbrow & Co. It stated that this firm had received forty very tine mules. M< rnla.y a party from Meii- wether county, having seen the Enquirer-Hen, came down ami bought ten of these animals. Yesterday parties who regularly read the best paper in Georgia came in, and believing in it, largelv invested in tips stock. These gentlemen Mr. Brew | committee; ingto the legislature. Mr. Hate her of the «-‘i>re‘ f Coweta, thought that each •uld be entitled to vote nccord- a.tation of his: county in the -•ere from Atlni 'ol u in hits. An > the properthi row has wnlv tc id other pc I i -ement in i the outside of right place :e hiisii • line n ertook the position that each mem- oimnittee should be entitled to only cme vote. He sr-id that if it had been intended that the counties should be entitled to more than one vote, they would have been given m< re than one representative in the committee. Mr. C'arson. of Taylor, thought each coranii' tcemau should be entitled to only one vote. Such was the ease with the state committee. Mr. Atkinson had been a member of the com mittee before, and said it had been the custom to allow each committeeman only one vote.no matter what the representation of his county in tin- legislature. Mr. Abrams thought the precedent was in favor of allowing no county more than one vote m the commit tee. Mr. Hatcher then in* ved that each committee man be entitled to • nly one vote, and the motion was unanimously adopted. Mi. Atkinson moved that in the congressional convention to he called, each county be entitled to twice the representation that i‘ has in the house of representatives ol’iiie general ns«eml ly. nml 'in- motion ui:a nim»M - \ nv.;- \ aft*- 1.

IndeuatInns. I .Special to Enquirer-Sun. i I Montgomery, Ala., June ft.--The state demo* j eratic convention will assemble in this city to* morrow. Promptly at 12 o’clock it will convene in the hull of the house of representatives. The convention is composeed of 722 votes and it is be- Peved that many more than that number of dele gates will be in attendance, several of the coun ties having selected more delegates than the number of votes to which they are entitled. All the incoming trains to-day have brought dele gates to the city. Cheap railroad rates have poured in a crowd of visitors and there are a greater number of people here to-night than has ever before been known on a similar occasion. The general idea seems to prevail that Dawson will lead in the balloting at the outset. This will very likely be the case, though Clayton, McKle- roy and Seay have each a very strong following. C layton will no doubt be the next highest on the first ballot. The drift of sentiment is towards the adoption of the majority rule. Many of the delegates are very pronounced in favor of this. The majority rule was adopted by the last state convention, and th' ;• c aim this as a precedent. Besides it is argued two years before an effort to repeal the tv thirds rule had failed because it was thought th: t a change at that time and without warn in.: n. : ;bt operate unfairly. But at the last I convent! u the matter was well understood, dis- : cussed !:• reliand, ana there bong no contest j for the governorship, it was seized on as the j proper time to make the change. I It is be’ieved that a nomination will be made without much wrangling. Tile contest has been | a very warm one, but it ha.> been good bumo:- ! edly ( onducled and the candidates are not an tagonized against each other. I Three counties have sent in double delegation - j and the contest for seats in the convention will ! be settled to-nmirow.

As a people we pride ourselves on our culture and intelligence, our refinement and politeness, and whereas we may be very careftil to practice the most strict etiquette in the parlors and draw ing rooms, yet we see a great want of its observ ance in places where its neglect makes it conspic uous. I mean on our crowded thoroughfares, where great throngs of people are continuously passing in different directions, and often in such a careless way as to make it difficult to pass each other without collision. Particularly does this apply to Broad street. As this is always the most crowded street in our city, it is more important to observe those street customs that prevent dis order and discomfort, and yet in many instances we see it totally disregarded. Were a well-bred person to station himself at one of the street cor ners, with pencil and paper, and note our dere lictions in this matter and present it to us, a perusal would call up many to blush to those who pride themselves upon their politeness every where and on all occasions. Let me mention some things of constant oc currence—such as three or four persons march ing abreast, and generally ladies—filling the en- t’re pavement, the solid platoon never giving way. but causing everybody else to do so; follow until an attractive show window is reached, and the crowd get around it in such a way that none else can catch a glimpse, and the group fonn such an obstacle that one can hardly pass; follow yet a little further until a corner is reached, and all stop right in the center of the pavement just opposite the street crossing, completely blockad ing the way of those going in either direction, and causing those crossing the street toward them to take the gutter in order to reach the pave ment. and if mud and water abound the disoon foil oftl:os< having to wade can be better iimgir.?d than described. If women I don’t know hat would be their thoughts if expressed; men I fear their language would be more •‘forcible than polite.’’ Now. it would be better for all parBeft to adopt and strictly observe a sys tern of .street courtesy that would be agreeable to ail. Those who are negligent in the matters spoken of to the discomfort of others are in turn discommoded; hence it is to the manifest interest o.’all to try and bring about an improvement in street usages, and to this end permit me to make a few suggestions : First, let the rule of the roa r apply, always pass to the right, ex cept yon meet those carrying baskets or bundles, 'her. always give them the pas sway most convenient to them, also yield it to the old and infirm: second, never si.nrl in doorways of *to.e *• or other pv'ih’f places so as ft) hinder the ingress c r eg)-, i, .if others; thir l, if desiring to ta'k w th ."rends, don't occupy the center of the o the side that will give the A Lneky Wait. Loyd French, of Colesburg. was in town ‘Wed nesday, and ca’led at the News office. Hus good | natured face was an wreathed in miles and “he , seemed just as happy as a big > mflower that i nods and bends on the breezes " Loyd has just ' received $6,000 as the Jesuit cf a $1 investment in . the April drawing of The Louisiana State Lot- j tery, and no wonder he :'s happy. Mr. French j says he has drawn several small prizes in this j lottery before, but had not bought a ticket for several years until January; since then he has a I dollar in each monthly drawing? and the fourth j time he hit it for an even $5,000. The number of • his ticket was 21,545. Mr. French has a wife and five children, and is a man in moderate circum stances. The money he has drawn in the lottery will put him square on his feet, and give him a start in the world.—Elizabeth iKy.i News, May 1. 1 endotM the* tlv.

Still the good nature and forbearance of the average American citizen has been long manifest in the submission to grievous wrongs indicted by the “Town Cow,” and the only possible* explanation is, a willingness on the part of the said g jod natured citizen to let his neighbor feed his cow upon the public pasture if he can thereby reduce the cost of keeping her. The experience of the last th “ee or four years, however, has furnished a factor for the solution ofthe whole cow problem. During these years the pasturage of the city streets has been ruined by the ubiquitous presence of the miserable weed known as dog-fennel, ft single bite of it ruins t lie whole yield of milk, ami every dealer who npelled to keep his cow lost, all his customers. iow no excuse foi any ii ordinance to take the is hoped that the city ext meeting. the comention shou'ti he ca.fted ear v so ih:*.‘ the people would get tk.ou ,h with tire confusion of two campaigns as near the same time as pr.v- t'Yab'e.
