We regret to learn that Mr. J. B. Gra
ham, of this collnty, lost about $1(30 00
at the Circus last Friday. Some Circus
or other kind of rogue stole the money
from him. We certainly sympathise
witli Mr. G. in his loss, especially when
money is so scarce.
Mr. Jack Wood had a tustle with a
thief on the same day, about his pocket
book containing near sixty dollars. Jack
managed to grab the scoundrel before he
got off with the money. Though he re
ceived several gashes on his band. No
one comiugJo the rescue, the thief man
aged to make his escape—though Jack
held on to the money “like grim death
to a dead negro.” The impression seems
to be that some of old John Robinson’s
crowd was the perpetrator of the act,
not only ot attempting to take Mi.
Wood’s money, but in taking Mr. Gra
ham’s pocket book and contents.
The Commissioners of the town of
Conyers met at tlieir chamber on Mon
day night.
Present: Hons. S, F. Speer, Chair
man, J. H. Almand, J. W. Langford, N.
W. Maddox and W. E Treadwell.
The main business of'.he meeting was
for the trial of parties whose names were
legions, that were up before the court,
charged with every grade of crime
known to the statu'es of Conyers, and
otherwise acting disorderly within her
sacred precincts or corporate limits.
Hawing all confidence that justice was
done in the premises, we omit prelimina
ries, and say to the guilty, pay up and
get your clearance papers, and to the in
nocent, go thy way for this lime ; in a
more convenient season you may be call
ed on.
Dr. A. C. W. Travis, the efficient
Clerk, closed the docket, and Marshal
McCollough adjourned the court till the
court in course—with a God save the
State and the Commissioner's court.
Old John Robinson had a very cold
day for his show to show here sure
enough on last Friday. But his show
showed show (sure) enough. John Low

The Covington Star has a long, inter.,
esting letter from Conyers in its last is
sue, written by Miss “Alpha.” We
thought of copying it, but after thinking
of the number of Stars taken, and oth
erwise, in and around here, we thought
it would be sufficiently circulated and
read without it appearing in the Rnois
ter. We hope so, Having heard from
Miss Alpha, we would hate to miss heal
ing from Omega.
“Alpha and Omega,
The first and last.”

Brother Jim Anderson, of the Cov
ington Star, is not satisfied exactly with
all the persons nominated as candidates
for county offices. While he has no objec
tions to the gentlemen (as men) that were
nominated for Treasurer 'and Coroner,
still he objects to the “newly converted"
being raised to the first positions in the
front rank, at one lift.
Ah, Jeemie! you may be wrong. Re
member the new convert is the most
zealous; and the good Book says that he
that comes in at the eleventh hour is en
titled to as much pay as he that bears the
heat and burden of the day. Don’t ccn
deran them, Brother. Rather welcome
them into the joys of true Democracy.
Tell them to sin no more ; and with more
patriotic hearts, remember in the future,
theit country too.
Miss “Annie Logan’s” presence lit up
the sane 1 tun of the Rkwjster on last
Monday. She came in as sprightly and
as chirping as the “beautiful bird of
epriug ” She has been stopping with
Misses Frank and Georgia Baker and
other friends and relatives in this place.
She left, on the day we speak of, for the
olassic banks of Yellow river, to bask
awhile under ihe hospitable roof of Dr.
S. W Bryan. Miss Annie to!d us a
heap about the young folks of Conyers,
especially the young men, and tho pleas
ant times she had while here; though
she made us promise not to tell; there
tore, “mnm’s the word.’’ Though, we
would like to know what she is going to
do with all the pictures she received
while here. She appeared very happy ;
notwithstanding, she is threatened with
a very severe Hales storm. We wish
Miss .Annie success and happiness in all
of her laudible undertakings ; and, es
pecially, may all her literary efforts be as
bright and sparkling and as meritorious
as her own warm heart could wish for.
Partio b indebted to me must pay up.

Newton Superior Court, for the Sep
tember adjourned term, met in Coving

presiding.
The civil dockets are being cal'ed.
But little erim’nal matter will be taken

Editor Rkoistek : This is truly an
exciting time in our national polities,
and the scales is nearly on a balance.
Stunt'd the Democracy Ir.ok down, the
Republic is gone in this our first (Jenfeii
nial year. But it we listen to the out
spoken populace. Uncle Samuel will take
his seat, and the Republic move on for
years to come without war ; and one
hundred thousand office-holders will take
the hack seat, and the same number come
to the front. Now shall we be hopeful
of an appointment, and bo still expecting
something to turn up that we may get
our living without labor, or shall we go
to work and make an effort to build up
the county ? Let us not forget the
source of our food and raiment. Let
very enterprising man uud woman in
Rockdale commence, right now, work to
the point, and in the yar 1877, when
the woild is at ease and peace, the grand
est show that ever was seen will be at

THE SUN.
1877. NEW YORK, 1877.
Thu different editions of the Sun duriug the
next year will be the same as during the year
that lias just passed. The daily edition w ill on
week days be a sheet of four pages, and on
Sundays a sheet of eight pages, or 06 br, ad
columns ; while the weekly edition will boa i
shoot of eight pages of the same dimensions
and character that arc alreudy familiar to our
friends.
The Sun will continne to lie the strenuous
advocate of reform and retrenchment, and of
th.e substitution of statesmanship, wisdom, and
integrity for hollow pretence, imbecility, and
fraud in the administration of public affairs.
It will contend for the government of the peo
ple by thn people and for the jieoplo, as op
posed to government by frauds iu the ballot
box and in the counting of vote3, enforced by
military violence. It will endeavor to supply
its readers—a body-now not far far from a
million of souls—with the most careful, com
pleta, and trustworthy oeconnts of current
events, and will employ for this purpose a nu
merous and carefully selected staff of repor
ters and correspondents. Its reports from
Washington, especially, will bo full, accurate,
and fetar.eis; and it will doubtless eontiuuo to
de ierve and enjoy the hatred of those who
thrive by plundering the Treasury or by usur
ping what the law doeß not give them, while it
will endeavor to merit tho confidence of the
public by defending the rights of the people
against the encroachments of unjustified pow
er.
The price of the daily Sun will be 55 cents a I
month ot $6 50 a year, post paid, or with the
Sunday edition $7,70 a year.
The Sunday edition alone, eight pages, $1,20
a year, post paid.
The Weekly Sun, eight pages of 56 broad
columns, will be furnished during 1877 at tho
rate of $1 a year, post paid.
The bent at-of this large reduction from the
previous rate for tho Weakly can be enjoved
by individual subscribers without tho necessity
of making up clubs. At the same time, if any
of our friends choose to aid in extending our
circulation, we shall be grateful to them, and
every such person who sends us ten or more
subscribers from one place w ill bo entitled to
one copy of the paper for himself without
charge. At one dollar a year, postage paid,
the expenses of paper and printing are barely
repaid ; and considering tho size of the sheet
and ti e quality of its contents, wo are confi
dent the people will consider the Weekly Snn
the eh eapest newspaper published sn the world
and we trust also one of the very best.
