On Friday last—just one week ago to
day—our town was merry and happy, in
the full enjoyment of healtn, and the as
sociations of friends and loved ones. The
kind and indulgent father, as he neared
his home from his accustomed place of
business, quickened his 6teps as the mer
ry voices of those he loved fell upon his
ears, while the lond and loving mother
clasped her darling child to her bosom,
as only a mother can, feeling that all was
well and that her enp of Happiness was,
indeed, filled to overflowing.
Bat, alas, what a change! To-day our
town is in the deemst grief and sorrow.
The messenger of death has visited many

I’nrtles Arrested for Murder.
Letter from Tnliafciro.
CRAtvroHDViLXK, Ga.. Fob. 21, 1873.
Messrs. Editors of the Sun: It will be
recollected by your readers that Mr, Jno.
T. Chapman, ol this county, the day
after it ocotirred, gave a full statement of
all the fact* then known connected with
the mysterious death of William A.
Alexander, of White county, Ga., which
took place near the residence of Mr,
Chapman, on tlio night of the 20th of
January last.
At that time it was supposed Mr. Alex
ander had committed suicide oy cutting
his throat. Do was traveling with two
other white men and one colored mun.
The part} had a wagon with them, and
were camping out on the road side. Very
recently facts came to ligat which ex
cited the suspicion of Mr. Alexander’s
family, that In* had been dealt foul
ly by. Tlio colored mnn, Jefferson
Oliver, mado disclosures which im
plicated himself and B. G. Cantrell,
one of the white men along with the
murder of Mr. Alexander. They were
arrested under the charge in White
county, and were brought to this place
by Mr. Paine, the Sheriff, this morning.
Mr. Underwood, an attorney of White
county, came with the prisoners to de
fend them against the charge. The pros
ecution came represented by Mr. Boyd,
jr., of same county.
Since the arrival of the party, Mr. Jas.
F. Reid, of this village, has been re
tained for tbe prosecution, and Mr. Wm.
H. BrooKe for the defense.
The preliminary examination will take
place this evening, before William A.
Chapman, Justice of tho Peace.
The whole affair has created considera
ble excitement in the community. It is
now supposed that Mr. Alexander, who
is represented to have been one of tbe
beet citizens oi White county, was killed
for his money. Our readers will be kept
advised as to tno future disclosures of
hia most mysterious tragedy.
Taliaferro.
BP. S. The examination did not take
place this evening. Justice Chapman
postponed it until to-morrow, to allow
the parties to send for witnesses in the
- country, who were present at the in-
Hueet
It is Mr. Paine, tho Ordinary of White
county, and not the Sheriff, who came
down. He is the father of Mr. W.
Paine, the other white man who was
traveling with Mr. Alexander.
It seems that Mr. W. Paine and Mr.
Alexander set ont together. Each had a
wagon—Mr. Paine’s was loaded with
apple brandy, and Mr. Alexander’s was
loaded with apples for sale through the
oonntry as they passed along. Mr. Alex
ander also had four or five horses for
sale. Mr. Cantrell was employed by Mr.
Alexander to assist him in sales. Oliver,
the colored man, was embloyed as a ser
vant.
Great interest is now felt in the further
development of the facts of this truly
mysterious case.
Mr. Cantrell is said by those who knew
him to be a man of good character. It
is ako said that he had every opportu
nity to make Lis escape in White county,
before his arrest, if he had chosen to do
so. It was he who accompanied the re
mains of Mr. Alexander, and returned
them to his family. Jeff Oliver’s state
ments constitute as yet everything that
. has any bearing against him. Not the
slightest intimation of suspicion even has
been made against Mr. Paint..
Taliaferro.
TfT.T.A TUMLIN,
youngest daughter of Wm. M. Tumlin,
to quit this world of sorrow and pain.
She died of crouD, at 3 o’clock Saturday
morning, after a brief illness. Her father
was absent at the time of her death, and
returned to find the idol of his heart—
his little pet, the joy of his life-pre
pared for the grave.
EDWARD T. M’GEHEE,
eldest son of Rev. J. B. McGeliee, was
next chosen. He expired on Monday
after an illness of only about 36 hours.
He was in the full bloom of youth, bright
and promising, and the pride of a happy
family. His father was also absent from
home—having left his family on Friday
evening in the full enjoyment of health,
bnt returned on Monday to look upon
tbe liteless jform of Lis beloved Eddie.
But a brief pause, and we were told
that
MRS. MULLENS,
consort of G. W. Mullens, had died,
bhe, likewise, passed away after but a
few hours of suffering. In this bereave
ment a void was made in tbe family circle
which can only bo realized by the sur
viving liusbanu and group of little moth
erless children.
bearcely had this sad news been re
lated before we were pained to learn of
the sudden death of
ALLISON K. ATKINS,
son of Captain M. I. Atkins,who, twenty-
four hours before, was a perfect picture
of health. All that medical skill could
do was done lor the relief of the little
sufferer, but to no purpose. “ Suffer
little children to come unto me, and for
bid them not,” was the command of his
Maker.
And yet, before the shades of night
should close this mound ul day and this
sad page in the history of our town
should be sealed, another was to be
added. A young
DAUGHTER OF DE. TOOMBS,
expires, and another household is in
mourning. The spirit of this little one
had scarcely-crossed the valley of death
before is was joined by that of its sainted
mother.
MRS. MARGARET TOOMBS,
which took its flight on Wednesday
evening, scarcely 4S hours after. Mrs.
Toombs had been suffering for some
days from pneumonia, and sank quietly,
peacefully, happily to rest in the arms of
Him whom she delighted to serve and
obey.
Before going to press, we are called
upon to open our columns to insert tho
death of
ANOTHER DAUGHTER
of Dr. Toombs, which transpired this
morning. Thus in the brief space of
five days, a loving and kind mother und
wife and two children have been removed
by death. Truly this affliction falls
heavily upon this household, and calls
for our deepest and purest condolence.
On Tuesday evening little
WILLIE TAYLOR,
only son of Joseph H. Taylor, died after
an illness of but a few hours. His father
was summoned home by telegraph to
witness the expiringmoments of his dear
little boy, and was with him but a couple
of hours before he was no more.
On Wednesday evening
willie m’han,
son of Rev. W. B. McHan, breathed his
last. On the morning of the day of Lis
dea’h hopes were entertained of his re
covery, bnt before tbe Betting sun went
down, his spirit had gone to the God who
gave it.
On Wednesday night a
SON OF MR. GLEASON
died, which had been sick bnt n^short
time.
At her residence, near Cuthbert, on
yesterday morning, tbe 20th inst.,
MRS. ED/TH HANCOCK,
mother of Capt. M. I. Atkins, after a
lingering sickness. Her remains were
interred in the Eastern Cemetery this
morning.
Sad indeed have the hours passed
since the appearance of this epidem
ic in onr midst. But we are hope
ful in the belief that the crisis has passed,
and that our oity will soon be in the full
enjoyment of her accustomed health. No
new cases have been reported the past
twent\-four hours, that we know of,
while tho disease has assumed a much
milder form, in the last cases reported.
For the gratification of Those at a dis
tance, who have laughters here in at
tendance at our schools, we are pleased
to state there has not been a case of sick
ness among the boarders at either col
lege, and that all are in the fall enjoy
ment of their accastomed health.

Taliaferro oounty, Ga., Mr. Geof.oe W. Tappajj, of
New Jersey, to Miss IIosauk E. Bied, daughter oi
William and Nancy Bied.
The ceremony was performed by Rev. L. B. I..
Jennings. It was at the house of the father of the
bride, where a large and agreeable party was as
sembled to witness the nuntials.
idea seems to hold good in the following
case. On the plantation of Mr. Bazwell
Brown, iu this c mnty, iu 1836, the first
effort was to siuk a well, and a
rock was struck which proven the effort
a failure. Mr. H.ram Siiii;i> had the
misfortune tucn»*«« • \>pit tut by
blasting the rock. He is now living on
the charities of Talbot county, iu the
poor home. The s«t*oijd til >r met with
the same impediment—•» n>CK. Mr.
John Turner, being the operative, was
blown up, with some person :i injury and
abandoned tbe task in despair. The
third attempt shared tl.e s. :ui- fate of the
two former and v,-as abandoned, because
the rock could not tie penetrated. The
fourth effort was attempted/with the most
peculiar success imaginable. After pen
etrating forty-ffve feet into the red, clay
Mr. John S. Yining and Mr. J. B.
Brown then blasted about twelve feet of
soliu rock, when to their great surprise,
they reached a natural well with the ex
ception of one side. For twelve or fif
teen feet there was u smooth solid rock
wall on three sides torming a complete
square, precisely the same size (about 4
feet square) of the orifice, made above by
these gentlemen. After blasting the
third side they came to a good supply of
good, clear, cold, water. The well is now
seventy feet deep passing through twen
ty-five feet of rock. This well is also
situated, within thirty feet of the soot at
which the first effort was made. During
the thirty seven years, since the first ef
fort was marie the family brought wnat
water they used from a spring situated
near a half mile cff.—1'homasto’i Herald.
Says the Augusta Chronicle and Sen
tinel: The recent high river has given
the planters a great deal of trouble with
their cotton. Up to date over seventy-
five bales have been reported as washed
away or adrift, ami though nearly ail of
it has been recovered, its recapture lias
been attended with a great deni of diffi
culty and mnc:\ annoyance. Yesterday
twenty-six bales additional were reported
afloat. They were the property of a
planter who lives in the upper portion of
Lincoln county, and who had loaded his
boat for the purpose of bringing the re
maining portion of his crop to market.
The boat was tied to the shore the night
before starting, and left in charge of
some colored bauds, who were to sleep
on board. In tho night tbo sudden
rising of the river and the rapid rush of
the water so alarmed the men that they
beat a hasty retreat. The boat soob
filled with water and sunk, and the cargo
came down on the current towards Au
gusta. Chase was given as soon as prac
tical, and all the cotton recovered above
here, save one bale, which i3 still on a
cruise.
Mr. John McNair, who went to Texas
some time since, has returned to Bain
bridge, completely disgusted with that
“land of milk and honey.” He says
that he’s willing to Brand old Decatur
