TUB DIXON CASK.
The Jury After Doing Out Nearly Twenty-four
Hours Make a Mistrial.
The Enquirer-Run has given the particulars
of the Dixon-Christian trial which has been in
progress in Tlar’iR superior court since Wednes
day last,. The case was given to the jury Friday
afternoon, and after being out nearly twenty-
four hours, made n mistrial. Thcv stood ten for
acquittal and two for manslaughter. After the
evidence had been received nnd the statement
made by Mr. Dixon, every one were confident
that the case would end in acquittal. The gene
ral impression prevailed that Mr Dixon’s state
ment was a true account of the unfortunate .af
fair, and his friends were confident that it would
have its full weight with tho entire jury. His
friends seem to he perfect ly confident that when
the next trial comes up that the case will be end
ed by an acquittal.
Attacked by a Bobber.
While Miss Corinne Hodge was going home
from her place of business about dark Friday
evening, she was attacked at the Baptist church
lot by a half grown young negro, who attempted
to take her money purRe from her. Miss Hodge
held on to the purse, and the negro, becoming
frightened, turned it loose, but threatened to
kill her if she reported the attack to the police.
It is a pity that the villain was not captured. He
would make a nice ornament to dangle from the
limb of a tree.
An Independent Candidate.
We learn there is an independent candidate for

Y. Carmichael, of Coweta county. His platform

of silver in the United States treasury that ought
to be distributed in tho fourth district If he
will see the two car loads arc dumped into our
sanctum, we will cheerfully vote for him and pay
our friend Tom Grimes his salary as congress
man to stay at home.

In Memorlsm.
Miss Mary E. Buck died on the 26th of Aug' st
last after an illness of more than four months.
She was born in this city June 16, 1863, and was
given all the advantages that living parents
could bestow upon a dutiful daughter. She at
tended the public schools and was afterwards
educated at the Columbus Female College. She
was just entering true womanhood, and was a
consistent member of the First Presbyterian
church, and adorned the profession with a con
secrated life. She consecrated herself to the
Master early in life. In all her relations she was
true; assuming the responsibilities with modesty;
discharging every duty with fidelity, and a con
scientious desire to honor Him in whom she
trusted, and whom she loved; bearing every
burden imposed upon her, as an earnest, zealous
Christian, who loved God’s house and delighted
In Hih worship. None knew her hut to love her,
awl many were greatly shocked to learn of her
death. In all her suffering she never was known
to complain, and when asked how she was would
simply say: “I am well,” or would say, “I am all
right.” or “better.”
Mary has gone to rest; God has called her to a
higher sphere of usefulness, where the spirit of
loyalty and love, so constant in its exercise here
below,will develop her character and life into the
glorious image and radiant beauty of the Re
deemer. Mary leaves a grief stricken father,
mother nnd brothers who mourn their Ions deep-
ly. But we have the scriptural truths to comfort
and support us. It is sad to part with those we
love by death; but sweet to refloat on the beauti-
ftil beyond, and say, “Blessed are the pure in
heart for th*y shall see God,” It gives more con
solation when we remewber that we will meet
in that beautifril beyond if we strive to do as she
did.
“Asleep in Jesus .blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep.”
Her Brother.
