Mr. Murphy, of CraVford, furnish
es iis with the followingTacts in re
lation to the disturbance which occur
red there last Friday night. \
It seems that for some time past a
party of negroes in and around Craw
ford were holding secret meetings in a
house near the depot. And on the
uight mentioned, the marshal, Mr.
Jasper Hopkins, noticed Borne half
dozen negroes on the way to their
trysting place all well armed, and
fearing that some mischief would re*
i-ult from these meetings, determined
to, keep a sharp sorveiliauce on them
and frustrate their evil intentions.
While keeping an eye on their ren
dezvous, another negro pnt in appear
ance, whereupon Mr. Hopkins arres-
i ted him. The negro immediately
gave a signal and called on his com
rades to rally. Instantly, those in
the house rushed pell-mell towards
the marshal brandishing their arms
and ordered him to turn loose their
friend. Mr. Hopkins thinking that
discretion, at this moment, was the
better part of valor, turned his pris
oner loose, when the whole party
simultaneously tired, wounding him
in the head, leg and hand. Mr. J. M.
Norton, whe was with the marshal
at this time was also shot through the
leg. Both of tile above gentlemen
are brave and chivalrous citizens, and
we regret very much to learn of the
cowardly manner in which they were
assaulted.
Some twenty or thirty white men
responded to the call for them to ral
ly, hut as the negroes fell hack, the
whites established a picket line and
held their position umil morning
When daylight dawned, they ad
vanced to the house hut found that
the l irds had flown.
The following colored men were
arrested on suspicion Saturday morn
ing: Ki g Ilardy, William Raines,
Fred Raines, Bud Henry, Peter, a
blacksmith, and another man named
Henry.
It is asserted that a notorious
scoundrel by the name of Luke John,
son is the ringleader of the gang, and
every effort is being made by the citi
zens of Oglethorpe county to bring him
to justice; and we sincerely hope they
will succeed in arresting this mid
night assassin and teach him and his
followers the penalty of their villainous
crime.

Swift, at Stone Mountain, Saturday
morning, 31st, ult.,_at 3 a. tn., Mrs.

for many yedrs misionary of the
Southern Baptist Convention in Chi

morning and night, at the Baptist
Church, on Sunday the 8th inst.
The Press, throughout the State,
where this gentleman has already
been heard, speak in very compli
mentary terms of his efforts, both as
a preacher aud lecturer; and doubt
less those of our citizens, who may be
permitted to hear him, will l>: richly
compensated. ,
Prof. Willoughby Reado.
. This gentleman gave a reading at
Deupree Hall, Saturday night; there
was a very slim attendance on this
occasion, and we regret to see so
little interest displayed by onr citizens
in these literary treats. Mr. Rende
has the reputation of being the finest
reader and delineator of humorous
uharacteis now travelling, and those
of our citizens who were fortunate
enough to hear him, were highly
phased and well entertained.

A Card.
Editor Georgian—Believing that
if at any time, the oftiee should seek
the man, and not the man the ofliee,'
that should be in sending delegates to
our Constitutional Convention. This
is the thought echoed by the press
and responded to by the people.
Now ,as other good names have
been suggested for this position, I as a
citizen of Clarke county, having a
'onuuunity of interest and pride in
her selection to this most responsible
trust, deem it not inopportune to name
one whose modesty of character is
not surpassed by his sterling integri
ty and whose legal accomplishments
in the fundamental and constitution
al laws of his county, and es
pecially of his own State, ate not ex
celled by his splendid intellectual abil
ities—that man is Capt. Pope Barrow.
Being a ^gentleman, scholar, patriot
and a constitutional lawyer of the
first 'water, his character it too well
known to the good people of our coun
ty to need further comment.
He would give tone, dignity and
influence not only to Clarke county
but to the district at large in this
Convention. Therefore, send him.
Other papers in the district please
copy. - Citizen.

Some years ago I had an attack of
what is culled dropsy of heart, and
after a long and tiresome illness, it
was supposed the disease was entirely
eradicated from my system. But,
within the past month, unmistakable
symptoms of the disease again
made their appearance. From the
evidence before me I felt satisfied that
Dr. Connaughton could aid me. 1
got him to prescribe for me, ^nd al
ready I have begun to experience re
lief. I feel perfectly confident that
the Doctor can, as ho professes to be
able to do, make a permanent cure in
my case. I feel warranted in recom
mending Dr. Connaughton to those
who are afflicted.

and struggled manhdly to free him

bent all the energies of her woman-

until at lasbtthe loving and toiling ac

her lmsbandlby. the- baud, and shared
