Enoch Steadman having applied for the benefit of the Bankrupt Law, it will lie necessary ■for his creditors to elect an Assignee to settle their claims. It is very import n t that a competent and Tellable man he chosen, as much depends upon the manner in which his duties aro performed. Serious Accident. On Sunday evening Mr. Charles Sanford and Col. 11. D. Capers, were thrown from a buggy near Covington Depot, in consequence of their horse taking fright at a hogshead in tlie street. Colt Capers was seriously hurt and for some minutes appeared to havebeen killed, but. we are glad to learn that he is recovering,and lliough lie was se verely bruised, lie had no bones broken. Mr. Sanford escaped with some pretty severe bruises. The buggy was totally wrecked. To Capitalists, Those who have money to invest will do well to carefully consider the advantages offered in the card of the State Treasurer, as published in an. other colun.n. Georgia bonds drawing 8. per cent, payable semi-annually, areas profitable as any equally secure investments in the market. It would lie well it all the indebtedness of our Slate, were due U* borne capitalists; and the bonds n .w offered are certainly a very favorable class < f seen. Tilies.

A dashing horse dashed his Iteels thro’ tho dash-board of a young man’s htiggv on Monday, ns he was returning from Oxford.— Fortunate!v tip*re us no other damage dene, A man t r N. > inn F letnrv got tii« “dander” upon Tuesday and fried to knock >'os dollars worth of bacon nut of an old ne gro inr.n on 'h‘' pilhlio sfpliye. \n old nr rn man known to everybody in the countv as “uncle Cube,” died in Cov ington on Tuesday. lie was over a hundred vein's rhl. The second match game of Ra»e Bull between Covington and Oxford was rdnved on last Saturday. Cm jngtnn was again victori ous. At the close of the nint' inning the scorers announced that Oxford was bent by twenty rounds. On Friday evening about fifteen attrac tive damsels promenaded our streets looking for a suitable male subject to spread their el oquence upon next Tuesday.

The driver pi efer ded that tlie.horsp was running away, and gave die alarm as he went down a hill. A gem val veil followed the announce ment and them gills were distributed promis cuously on the ground and' across tiie tongue. In their hitrry to get out they forgot crinoline and had a united tumble together. They say ll fit the ground was harder at 'hat time than it has been since the war. Having learned that a Billiard Table was in town, and knowing tile prejudices of some old e't zens against sue.i an amuse ment, we have endeavored to ascertain how ti is table w uld hit conducted, A party of twelve gentlemen, vc learn, obtained the table for ill ir own and their friends’ amusement— no minor will be allowed to play, neither do the Club desire their cnmpinv in the room.— Tho Billiard room will he up stairs, where the sale or use of liquor will he positively prn- I ibited. If parents would watch their boys more closely fit night they might discover that II ey were trending ill a more “demoralizing” lath than the one which leads to a private billiard room. IVe are glad to learn that if Covington most h ve a billiard table minors will be nenied the use of it. (Nipt. J. M. Levy is having anew plank fence erected in front of liis resi lience.

An Organ grinder was amusing. himself in Covington last w'ek. much to the amu-ptnent of some of the. music lovmj darbies. Doctors over the county report an astonisl inp increase in the population. They are mostly ‘‘hoys’’ and doing very well, we are pleased lo learn. An election for a Justice of the Peace and two Constables, has been .ordered, and will be held at Steadman, for the 12G1 District, on the First Sat urday in April next. has seriously damaged the young fruit and vegetables in this section.

Covington metQP Wednesday night at ’.he resi, denee of Major Wood, ami passed the evening very pleasantly. The committee hftvo not as yet obtained a suitable. Hall for the Society. (Ton. E. W. Beck called lo see us on Wednesday. The Cob nel was ‘one of the few, the immortal’ Congress* men who voted against the increase of their own salaries on the test vote, tho’ absent when the Omnibus hill was piss ed. He is looking fine and in good health. We stated last week that Color.cl Acton, of die Atlanta Constitution, wnfs• cleaned up at euchre in Covington. The Colonel ruses his hands in horror and sitting on his shanks howls (when he gets in the Constitution office) thusly : “I will state that 1 was beat one game, hut that I was in a fair wav of cleaning up things generally, when the game was prudently jumped.’’ Here is the way George Washington would have told it : U I heat one game out of eight arid quit, knowing 1 could not beat another.” Wc learn that Jo. Braswell, who murdered a negro boy in Walton county about a month since, has been frequently sr.cn in Harbin’s district, Gwinnett Cos. He is said to be well armed and defies any person to arrest him. lie threat ens to kill one or two persons, and then leave the county. So long as criminals go unwliipped of justice just so lor.g will crime continue on tho increase. This boy should he arrested and brought to the bar of justice immediately, We attended, by special invita tion. the T ableaux and Concert given h> tiie Midway Sunday School for the pur pose of obtaining a banner. The per formance opened with a song, “The Beautiful Days that are Past,” which was very well sung. The first scene was two young ladies representing ‘Night and Morning,’ tins was indeed beautiful. The ‘B lie of Centreville’ and ‘Sweet Sixteen’ looked charming. ‘Open your mouth and shut your eyes,’ then fare well biscuit, was not as good as. some other pieces on the programme. The ‘Lady of the Period’ was a ‘killing’ pic ture which made our he rt turn around in our bosom like a bumble-bee under a glass goblet. But to be candid, the enr tertainment was very good, considering tjie hurried manner in which it was gotten up, and more- than worth the price of admission. We learn that an other will be given soon. We will an nounce the night in due time. On Thursday evening a dispute arose in Harrison Berry’s Cook Shop between some men and a negro waiter. Harrison came in to see what was the matter when one of the party, a Mr. Horton, drew his knife and attempted to cut Harrison. Horton’s brother attempted to stay the stroke by catching the arm hat heir! the dangerous weapon. But the force with which the knife was wielded was too strong to thus be slop ped. and the blade missing its mark by this interferance, entered the crown of the innocent brother's head cutting it to the burr of his car, scraping the skull bone all the way down. The wound was immediately sewed up and dressed by' Dr. E. 11. Yancey. We learn that the unfortunate young man is improving, Asa Roan, a cullud cuss formerly of Covington, visited his old home ofi Thursday fist. Putting a cargo of mb eve-rye, as usual, under his shirt, he left the city in high spirits to mingle once more with congenial companions.around some oi l ‘seven-up’ board- Rut this child of Ham lost his way and his frail barque drifted into a stranger’s camp. The congratulations of the evening were exchanged in an excited manner. Roan left the camp in a hurry with a large knife singing a death song close to his coat-tail. When he returned to town he remembered that the stranger had been playing a solo game of mumble-peg be* tween his shoulders. To prove this as sertion he exhibited three or four knife holes on his person. llis cuts were* fixed tip in the latest European style -by- Dr. Branh in. Roan then steamed him self up again and started in a hop-and go-fetch*it fox trot for his adopted home.- A cutting affray-oectmed in So* cial Circle on Saturday night, with se rious results. A young man named Whatley, who is said to be wild and reckless, was rendering himself very in* suiting in the store of Mr. Coleman F.‘ Mobley. Mr. Mobley escorted Whatlev to the front door when the latter turned and clinched Mobley, knife in hand, and* cut him in five places. The most dan-* gerou* was a stab in the abdomen. Mr. Mobley is a peaceable young man and highly respected by those who know him. We are glad to record the fact that Mr. Mobley bids fair to soon recover. What* ley was arrested and sent to jyil on Mon day last. Nervous Deeilitv, Loss of Vital.
