It is understood that a Macon party is figuring on a new hotel for Indian Spring, and if possible will have it lit operation next season. It is to have about fifty rooms, furnished with modern furniture, electric bells, etc., and built with a special view to the comfort and entertainment of guests. A site has been bargained for, and efforts are being made to carry out the en terprise to completion. Last Thursday and Friday, Van’s creek Baptist church, situated at Buckersville, near Elberton, held its centennial celebra tion. The church was organized in 1785, but for some reason the celebration was S ostponed to this year. Hon. Elbert M. ucker, of Anderson, S. C., delivered an address on the history of the church and Rev. C. D. Campbell, of Athens, Ga., an address on the progress of the Baptist church in the last hundred years. Three ministers served Van’s creek church all the time from 1785 to 1871. They were Revs. Dozier Thornton, Frank Calloway and Asa Chandler. Charles Ramsey, a white stevedore, shot his daughter, Jennie, at his house on the corner of Lincoln and Bay-street lane, in Savanm h, Friday night. The pistol shot took effect in her arm, which being raised suddenly, prevented it from entering her breast, ana probably saved her from in stant death. She is painfully wounded, but she will doubtless recover. There is some mystery connected with the affair, though Ramsey’s friends claim that the girl was mistaken for a burglar. A fire broke out nt 1 oo’loek Saturday evening in the uarjvo of the British steam ship Lancaster, which was just finishing loading 5400 bales of cotton at the Central cotton press at Savannah. The hatches were closed and the fire department sum moned. After water had been pumped into the hold for three hours, the fire was got under control. The amount of damage to the cargo and vessel has not yet been ascertained. The origin of the fire is in volved in mystery. Further particulars of the dynamite ex plosion in Franklin county, Wednesday night, show that Senator-elect Lewis Davis is badly hurt. He was standing near the court house in Carnesville talk ing to a crowd of gentlemen when the bomb or cartridge was thrown in the square. It carried a lighted fuse and several of the party advanced toward it to see what it was. The explosion which fol lowed was terrific, shattering windows and breaking lamps for whole blocks. Senator Davis was picked up blackened, bruised and senseless. He was restored to con sciousness, and is now doing very well. Another member of the party was hurt. It is believed the bomb was thrown by some enthusiastic voter, and not intended v, negr< • mile from Thomasvilie. Chastain was drunk and began swearing at the negro. The negro told him to hush. Then they quarreled a little, when Chastain attacked the negro withl his knife, inflicting two woiinds in the chest, reaching the heart. The negro died shortly afterwards.

It is simple in construction, and so well illustrated by the cut, that scarcely a word is needed by way of explanation, being simply an Iron Screw m»«l Nut substituted for wood, the wood work of its construction, and the manner of operating it, are substar stantially the same as in the old style of wooden plantation screw, but the timbers required are not so heavy or long. Most planters of experience prefer the wooden screw to any of the more modern Cotton Presses in use, but the difficulty and uncertainty of controlling labor and mechanical skill in the season of the year most convenient to the planter for their erec tion, usually renders it a matter of economy, as well as necessity, with him, to buy some kind ol Press that requires but little mechanical skill to put it in operation. “Golden** Norow,’* is a sort of compromise between the old style of wooden screw anil the modern Cotton Press, combining the principal advantages of the former with the convenience and economy of the latter. It can be operated with greater facility than the wooden screw, and the rapidity of its performance, like that of the wooden screw, or any other press, depends upon its management—as on the old style screws some planters would pack ten hales, and others thirty or thirty-five bales per day. Any ordinary mechanic who can make a good plantation gate, or common plow stock, can do the wood work. Within the last eleven years we have made and sold a great many of these screws, and have yet to hear of the first one that has not given entire satisfaction. We furnish all the Iron Work for these Screws, of which we make two sizes, und frilly warranted. je20 wed.HO&wfim Crab Orchard . WATER.-/£lf t3 THIS I.IVU**. HE KIDNKV8. THU STOMACH ’THU BOWELS.
