A full account of Mr. Davis funeral, at New Orleans, will also be found on the first column of the same page. At a negro fiolic, near Walnut Grove, Walton county, oue night last week, one negro was killed aud sever¬ al wounded. An inquest was held and the usual verdict rendered, “came to his death at the hands of parties unknown to the jury.” Special taxation for the payment of a county debt may be all right, but when such taxation fails to reduce said debt, then it grows burdensome, tedious and tiresome, whether the amount be much or little. The pres¬ ent plan will never clear our county ot debt, and it seems wise to adopt s >me other plan. If not bonds, then the taxes must lie increased to a high¬ er rate, and we do not believe our people are willing to 1111 increase now. A large number of the solid farm¬ ers of the county have been in town within the past week and most of them appear to be in better humor than is usual at this season of the year. Fair, but not large crops, have been made, many obligations have been met, and the people at large are better satisfied with the outlook for the future than they have been for many long years. That our people have practiced econo¬ my and been indmtfrious f,,r the past year is true—that they have been happier by so doing, is also true. MEMORIAL SERVICES. Wednesday, Dec. 11, will long be remembered by our people. Business houses were closed from 12 to 2 p m, bells were tolled aud several stores were draped in mourning A large number of ladies and gentlemen met in the court house to engage in ap¬ propriate memorial services over the death of Hon. Jefferson Davis. Judge E. F. Edwards, President of the Newton County Confederate Vet era its’ Association, under whose aus¬ pices the service was held, took the chair. Rev. T. H. Grier opened the exercises with prayer. Judge Ed¬ wards paid a beautiful and teuder tri¬ bute to the life and character of Mr. Davis. Major J. M. Pace presented patriotic resolutions eulogistie of the dead Chieftian, and moved their adop¬ tion in eloquent language. The. mo tion to adopt was seconded by quite a number present and appropriate ad¬ dresses delivered by Messrs. Capers Dickson, Jno. B. Davis, W. H. La Prade, T. J. Swanson, T. H Grier, Jno. V. Woodson, B. F. Camp and Emmett Womack. A committee was appointed to so¬ licit and receive contributions to the widow and orphan and monument funds, and quite a sum was raised.— That Newton county will discharge her full duty in this matter is sure and certain--and that she will do so without any unnecessary display is also true. COMMISSIONER HENDERSON. We had a pleasant call from Com¬ missioner of Agriculture Henderson Saturday. He was looking well and appeared to be in the best of health. His friends all over the state will see that he is enthusiastically supported for his present position at the election rnxt year, He has made a faithful officer aud deserves to be elected with¬ out opposion. In speaking of our friend the Au¬ gusta Chronicle says : < i Col. Hen derson has been in office ten years Heretofore his appointment has been coufered by the governor, Now that the office held by him has been made elective, it is natural that he should go before the people for an endorse ment. Hot. Henderson has administered hus office for the benefit of the farm era. It has been cleanly conducted, and has been productive of great good ; to the agricultural iutereat; Goloaei .Henderson has been an intelligent, hon est and faithful official, and we sincerely trust and believe that the farmers by their ballots will elect him . »o the office which he has so long and i“ h ®“«»bly filled by appointment »t . the hands of the governor, town and county. *VKSTTH:»0 AMD EVERYBODY. ..Subscribe for the Enterprise. • -°ur compress has been busy sevfcr *l days past • .Liberal advertisers always make a live town, • - Mrs. Wilson Conner continues in feeble health. „ Mr9 Jai,e , " ells W R to •• - ‘ move hcr . bome k new Dext we « - . .A nice lot of lap robes and horse ,, blankeU R M EveritU. at . .Judge J.

Speecdiee were made by Hons. II. L. Graves, W. L. Peek and L. F. Livingston Mr. Robert Harvey tells us that the affair was pleasing and interesting in all its ap¬ pointments. Mr. C. S. Jarboe is having a neat residence erected on the Fiat Shoals road, four miles from town. It will lie occupied by a family of his white tenants, as he is not yet ready to bid adieu to the pleasant business and S( cial ties that bind him to Snapping Shoals. Mr. A. R. Bower is super¬ intending the erection of the house, which is a guarantiee that good and honest work will be done. On December 11 at the same hour jn every southern city ami town fu neral ceremonies were observed and a patriotic people vied with each other in doing honor to the memory of a statesman and a soldier who had been denied citizenship in a free and proud republic. No such elaborate and uni versa! honors were ever paid to any man, at any time, in any country, as those 4 . paid . , to . the pure lire i-«* and , 1 were spotless character of Jefferson Davis, and no where were the ceremonies more impressive or more appropriate than here in Newton county.
