Murder aud Its Punishment.
The Jury in trial of Hilton Ma*
lone, oharg^d with the murder of yonng
Frank Phillips, returned a verdict of
guilty at a late hour last night. It will
be remembered that a former trial of this
case two weeks ago broke down on ao-
count of the sudden death of a Juror.
It wa? recommitted yesterday to an en
tirely new Jury. Able arguments were
delivered on the part of both the State
and the defense, but the weight of the
evidence was clear to the mind of the
Jnry that tbe accused was guilty of tho
crime with which he was charged.
The intense feeling and exoitement
provoked in the community by the mur
der of Phillips will notsoon beforgotten.
Fears were entertained for days after the
tragedy that lynch force would be at
tempted on the cell of the murderer. A
young man, well and widely esteemed, in
an evil hour, with wild associates, visited
a house of ill fame, where, as it appears,
all unprovoked by any action of the de
ceased, Malone shot the young man dead.
A fond family was plunged into an abyss
of grief. The wails of a stricken mother
and sisters went up to Heaven. A father
and affectionate brothers were bowed in
unspeakable anguish.
The murderer too, has a father and a
mother whose instinctive love for their
only son has caused them to labor for his
acqnital before the bar of justice of the
crime, which now demands that his life

Letter from Taliaferro.
Messrs. Editors Sum I address yon
again from this place. The connty seat
of Taliaferro presents to the eye of an
old acquaintance many evidences of
thrift, perseverance and prosperity of its
inhabitants.
There have been erected as many new
and handsome bntldings in the short
space of twelve months as in any village
of its size and population on the line of
the Georgia Railroad, or perhaps in the
State. It is contemplated to bnild three
or four more, which will soon be in
course of erection. Nearly all the store
houses and many of tho dwellings have
undergone repairs and aro neatly painted.
BUSINESS HOUSES.
The town has the following business
houses: Ten dry goods stores, two gro
cery stores, one drag store, three bar
rooms, three blacksmith shops, one car
riage factory, one dental depot, and one
large gin manufactory, owned by Messrs.
J. D. and H. T. Hammock. These en
terprising and reliable gentlemen, by
their honesty and attention to business,
have secured a large sale throughout
Georgia and other States.
NEW DEPOT.
A lKJiMEs.'JMi TUAGEi) Y.
An Intercepted Kloprment—The Vonng
M»n Killed—A Death-Bed Marriage,
Some three years ago, a young man re
siding in Marshal county, Tennessee,
was engaged to be marned to a yonng
lady who lived in the neighborhood.
The match was strongly opposed oy the
girl|s family, her two brothers being es
pecially bitter in their opposition. How
ever, all this had no effect upon the
lovers. As it was manifestly impossible
for the marriage to take place at the
yonng lady’s home,
AN ELOPEMENT WAS AGREED UPON,
but their plans were frustrated upon two
different occasions. The third attempt
was more successful, and one dark,
cloudy night, the lover rode to a place
designated, found
HIS PROMISED WIFE AWAITING HIM,
took her on the horse behind him and
rode rapidly away. The lovers natu
rally concluded that tne'r troubles were
over, and that in a short time the cere
mony which wonld bind them to each
other forever would be pronounced.
They rode along and had reached a point
within a quarter of a mile of the young
man’s home, when
TWO MEN SPRANG OUT
from their place of concealment near the
roadside, and called to the yonng couple
to halt, wh ch command was not obeyed.
The two men therenpon fired at the
yonng man on the horse, who rode on a
short distance and then
FELL HEAVILY TO THE GROUND,
dragging the girl with him. The two
men—who proved to be the young lady’s
brothers—came up and beat the wounded
man abontthe head and chest m a brutal
manner, he begging and pleading with
them to spare him, as he felt he had

How wondrous are the changes, Jim,

And hoys wore pants of low;
When shoes were made of calfskin

And children did a half day’a work, ^.'3

The girls took musla lessons, Jim,
Upon tho spinning wheol,
And practiced late and early. Jim,
On spindle, swift and reed;
The boys would ride bare-backed to miU,
A dozen miles or so.
And hunry off beloro 'tvras day.

In sleds Instead of sleighs.

Though tow they'd be too alow, ,
For people live^ not half so fast,

O, well I do remember, Jim,

That father bought and paid for, Jim,
In cloth our gals had wove.
And how tho neighbors wondered
When wo got the thing to go.
They Eaid 't would bnet and kill us all.

Yes, everything is different, Jim,
From whatitused to was;
For men are always tampering, Jim.
With God's great natural laws.
But what on earth we’re coming to.
Does snybody know ?
For everything has changed so much,
Since forty yes-sago.
