Iu Durance Vile.
At the session of the County Court
on Saturday last, Hon. G. W. Gleaton presi
ding. iMr. Maxwell Steele had ac opportunity
of! explaining how he happened to be inside
of a pair of doe-skin pants, the property of a
1 Centre S .reet merchant. Mr. Steele’s indig
nation at being suspected, or perhaps his nat
ural reticence, caused his explanation to be
decidedly unsatisfactory, and the Court senten
ced him to pay a fine of SSO or to remain
three months in jail. Steele was represented
by Col. J. C. Barton and Hon. A. C. McUalla.
Solicitor T. J. Christian represented the State.
Died.
Mr. James G. Cooper died at his home
in this county, in Sheffield district, on Friday
the 3rd inst., of dropsy. He leaves a wife and
several children to mourn his loss. Mr. Coop
er was an intelligent, upright citizen, a good
neighbor, a kind husband and father. Me was
about forty-five years of ago. Was a good
soldier during the war; having served faith
fully in the 35th Ga. Rcg’t. as a Lieutenant.
To his afflicted family, and his largo circle of
friends, we extend our sympathies. May lie
that tempers the wind to the shorn lamb com
fort their hearts ; and may He be a hußband
to tbo widow, and a father to the fatherless.
A Good Opening.
Why don’t some of out - young men
learn stenography, or as we prefer to call it
shoithand? Under a recent act of the legis
lature short hand reporters are to bo appoint
ed for the Superior Courts of the State, and
they will doubtless get very comfortable sal
aries. All that a young man has to do, if he
desires to perfect himself in this art, is Mo be
come a tlior*tu’gb belles lettres scholar, and
make himself familiar with Latin quotations
in common use, law terms, and tho technical
phrases of the various trades, arts amlseiences.
In addition to this he must be unexceplions bl e
in grammar and orthography, have a tenacious
memory, and fingers, as nimble as those
of the most accomplished lady pian
ist. By all meaus let some of our young men
pitch into short hand.
School Statistics.
From the Fiftli Annual Report of the
State School Commissioner, presented to us by
Col. J. C. Barton, we extract the following fig
ures in reference to this county :
Number of children between 6 and 13 years
of age 2,009.
Whites, 1,991.
Colored 618.
Confederate Soldier under 3Uy.en.vs 8.
illiterate Whites between 10 and 18...137.
Colored 477.
Illiterate Whites over the age of 18...126.
Colored 451.
There are 16 White and 10 Colored, schools
in the county, with an attendance of 828
\Vhite3 and 491 Colored. The average month
ly cos\ of each pupil is $ 1 80, of which 65
cejiis is paid by the State. The yearly com
pensation of the County School Commissioner
is $lB5 35. County’s pro rata of the State
School Fund, $987 71.
These figures relate to Public Schools for the
year 1875.
A Bugaboo About “Tight” Money.
Money is tight, is it? We have heard
gloomy talk of late about the scarcity of mon
ey, but as we hear just such talk every year
wo paid very little attention to it. There is no
very unusual scarcity of money just at this
time. Our circulating medium has not taken
wings unto itself. It is not all in the hands
of Northern bankers. On the contrary there
is an abundance of it right here at home, read
y to he paid out for proper objects and loaned
to proper parties. Only the other day the At
lanta banks offered to lend Cook & Cheek
SIOO,OOO, and the offer was declined, as the
firm thought it advisable to go into bankrupt
cy. This does not look much like a scarcity
of money in Atlanta, and it tfei'.ds to hear us
out in our opinion that there is more sc und
and fury than sober sense in this howl of “hard
times,” etc. The times are only hard to those
who neglect to provide tor the annual dull
season. That’s what is the matter.
[COMMCNIC AXED.]
Editors Register : —Ccnyers is a progress
ive town, but there is one desideratum that
must be supplied, and that is a “Bank.” But
this requires capital, and how to get it or hew
to unite for that purpose the little money we
have in our midst, is the object of this, and
perhaps other communications.
My plan is simply this : —Let a half dozen or
more of our prominent m rrchants and monied
men agree to deposit daily every dollar of our
gross receipts at some designated place, and
appoint one of our number its custodian or
treasurer, requiring of him a sufficient bond.
These aggregated deposits may be small at
first, hut they would soon grow under proper
management, and the system hocked by our
substantial men, woifld commend itself to our
country friends and men of means not actively
engaged in business. To illustrate—A, B, C,
and D are merchants. They deposit SSOO each, i
They have at its inception $2,000. A goes to
the treasurer and gets 1,000 for one week. The i
treasurer according to the regulations of the'
institution requres B, C or D’s endorsement,
as no depositor can borrow in excess of his de
posit without the endorsement of another de
positor and then not in excess of their deposits.
No Joans cau be made for a longer period than
one., week, and the rate charged will be say f of
1 per cent, for that time, the rate to be dis
counted from the loan made, each depositor to
receive 1 per cent, per month for his deposits
that, are not drawn out until after 16 days from
date of deposit.
Here is tho result:
A borrows sl/'PO with B’s ondorsomont for
one week. 0 does likewise, with D’s endorse
ment. At the expiration of that time the in
stitution has $2,010. A and 0 have been ac
commodated with SI,OOO each for one week, at
only $3 75, their SSOO having drawn 1 25 in
terest in that time. B and D receive $1 25
each as interest, and there is still left n sink
ing fund of $5 for future dividends, expenses,
etc. Now, suppose we have 100 deposit ors in
stead of 4, each depositor averaging $5 per
day, iu six months time tie institution would
have a working capital oqual to $75,000!
Let the mind work this thing out. V ill not
such an institution be of incalculable benefit
to Conyers ? Will it not strengthen our busi
ness interests, give an impetus to trade, aud
produce activity promptness and confidcrooP
Let us give this matter a serious considera
tion. Banker.

COTTON
We think reached the lowest price for the sea
son, during the last days of February. Since
the fi-ist of the month there has been a slight
improvement in all grads ef cotton. We think
parties holding cotton will do well to sell
ring the present month. Many sold before tho
Ides of March, and it is not likely they will
have cause to regret it. When the acres to he
planted becomes known, and it is our opinion
that it be greater than last year, cotton will
weaken and go lower in price. We quote—
