The loss is estimated at $25,000, with only $5,500 insurance. The property belonged to Messrs. W. A. Hemp hill, of the Atlanta Constitution, and 9. M. Inman, of Atlanta. The mill* had a capacity for manufacturing about two tons of paper per day, and were fitted up with fine and improved machinery. We especially sympahtize with Brother Hemp hill in his heavy loss. The Death Boll. Death of Miss Leila Echols. Miss Leila Echols died at the home of her mother, in Midway, on Monday night the 8 th of Jwue, after only a few days of pinaful and intense suffering. Miss Ech « 1 » was one of the most intelligent, useful and lovable young ladies in this whole community, and her death is a loss which is keenly felt by every one. She was a noble young lady in every sense —so kind, so gentle, so pure, so goed. All loved her, and all are deeply grieved at her untime¬ ly depth. May her pure and spotless life ever be a living example for the young of our community. Death of Miss Addie King. Miss Addie King, daughter of the late Richard King, died in Covington on Sat¬ urday morning, June 6 , 1885, after a long and painitil illness, aged about 37 years. Mis* King had been an invalid for many years, but she bore her afflictions patiently, and nevercomplained of her a iffering. She was a member of the Methodist church, and her many Christian virtues were man¬ ifest iu her every-day life. Hers was a pure and spotless life, and she has now gone to reap her eternal reward. Death of Mr. Joseph Griffin. Mr Joseph Griffin, son of Major J. H Griffin, of Oxford, died on Friday night, the 5th of June, from a relapse of meas¬ les, aged about 18 years. Mr. Griffin was a member of Die junior ela K s of Emory college, mill w-.es a imuarkabty bright and promising young man. lie was awarded a speaker's place iu his class, at the ap¬ proaching commencement, and stood high iu all his studies. His funeral took place on Sunday morning, the services being ctmducted by Drs. Haygood, llopkins, Branham and Stone. Death of Miss Irene Wood. Died, iu Covington, in her 19th year, on Wednesday evening, June 3, 1885, after a few weeks’ illness, borne with high maidenly fortitude. Miss Irene Wood, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. K. Wood, beloved by them greatly according to the measure of her lo. elintse, the light and delight of their household, her moth¬ er’s sunny and congenial companion and joy, and the pride of her father. To them, she was dear and previous beyond the pow¬ er of expression. Over their willing hearts she presided, a* of right, a fair young princess, receiving daily the homage of their deserved parental love, and giving back to them in rich return tire service of her sweet offices. Never was there a more winsome daughter than she, and never had any a higher measure of true praise than the separate declarations of her fa¬ ther and mother to a friend the day before her death, that they had never cause to scold her, and that their wishes were the cheerfully accepted law of her life. How dear to them she must have been, and what human heart will not go out to them now in lively sympathy, akin to the sure aud all-embracing sympathy of the divine Savior ? Not perhaps, in the history of Covington, has there occurred here a death which so tenderly and distressfully touched and saddened the public heart as that of tiiis lovely girl, “fashioned so slenderly, young and so fair." In character and manners so engaging, in person so comely, a beau¬ tiful vision in our midst, we had come to regard her as one of the cherished orna¬ ments of our society, and to assert in her an affectionate proprietary interest. She was our», also. Daily during her sickness did the whole town make eager and lov ing inquiry of her condition, and yearn for her quick recovery. And when, at last, “ Death fell on her like an untimely frost Upon the sweetest flower in all the field,” there went a pang into every corner of the public heart, and a cloud of bereavement overspread us all. A sense of personal loss pervaded the whole community. But in the pain and gloom whieh, in this providence of God, has visited her fond family and all who loved her, there comes, with power to soften and dispel, the pleas¬ ing knowledge that she gave her heart to God, entreating her friends to do the same, and went through the vallev and shadow of death leaning undisma'-ad, trustfully and triumphantly upon the arm of Jesus to her rightful and happy place among the an gets. J. M. P. Mrs. Klmina Whitley, wife of Mr. Na¬ than Whitley, of Walton county, died at her home near Walnut Grove, on Friday night, June 5th, aged about 50 yeare. ff" Personal Mention.

Nelms, of Atlanta, principal keeper of the penitentiary, was appointed Uni¬ ted States Marshal for the Northern district of Georgia, by President Cleveland, on last Satur¬ day. Oh ! no ; President Cleveland will not deliver any commencement orations, this season ; but, the vice president, Mr. Hendricks, will deliver an alumni address, at Yale college, which will close the oration season. Miss Julia Jacksoa, the only child of Gen. Stonewall Jackson, was married in Dr. Hoge’s church, in Richmond, to Mr. William E. Chris¬ tian, a prominent young merchant of that city, on last Tuesday evening. Judge Gilham, the ordinary of Oglethorpe county, issued a marriage license to his mother, one day last week. This is rather a remarkable instance, and is probably the only case 011 rec¬ ord in Georgia, where a man has issued a license for the marriage of his mother. The Commencement. The opening exercises of the Georgia Metho¬ dist Femal* College commencement, will come off on next Friday night, the izih inst., at which time the exhibition by the pupils in the preparatory department will take pUce.

Mr. J. T. Corley lost a good mule on last Saturday. There were four deaths in this vicinity on last Friday night. The oats have come out wonderfully since the late rains, and a pretty fair crop will now be made. A great deal of sickness now prevails about Covington. You should be cautious about eating vegetables. Elder J. M- Brittain has several acres of the finest corn about Covington. He also has some very fine cotton. There has been more real good work done in the past week, than was ever done before in the same time, in this sec¬ tion. Th* match game of base ball between Covington and Conyers, on Wednesday last, resulted in a score of 21 to 17 in favor of Covington.

I and ay brother have been charged with a great many things that we are as clear of as a lamb. I am hereafter to live a qsaet and peaceable life. And therefore we want forgiveness for what wrongs we have done. Brother is now serving for the murder of Mr. Hardeman, of which crime he is innocent. I kxnr that we have had enemies ever since he was accused of that crime, and on that account we want to make friends with all our enemies. I will close by saying : Peace to all mankind. I remain your friend. EDWARD T. KELLY. P. S.—Jasper County New* please copy. Observations on the Wing. Jokcsboro, Ga., June 1 , 1885 . Editor Covington Star : Dear Sir : I believe I promised you 1 would write you a letter, when I settled down for lest. My rovings, and what I have seen, felt, heard, thought, imagined and experienced, while roving* are very interesting—to me ; but, I do not know whether or not these things will entertain you and your numerous cultured readers. However, I will give you a few Jottings, gathered on the wayside. I left Covington for Conyers. I spent quite a pleasant while at the Rockdale Paper Mills, at the hospitable residence of Mr. and Mrs. Mc Knight, I being the guest of courteous Mr. Wil ie McKnight. The paper mills, under the man¬ agement of this excellent young man, are pros¬ perous, with no likelihood of shutting down, as many mills over the state have done. From Conyers I went to Stone Mountain. I found the people there quite pleasant, social and hospitable. I went up on mountain, on a cloudy afternoon, just before sun down. Of course, as you well know, the scenery is grand beyond dis¬ cretion ; hat, having been once before, on a fair summer’s day in June, it was the atmosphere and clouds that commanded the greater portion of my attention and observation on this occasion.— After viewing the motions, shiftings and changes in direction and appearance of a heavy, black thunder cloud, near Atlanta—after noting these and various other things to partial satisfaction, 1 grew suddenly intrepid, and proceeded with my friend, host and companion, Mr. Harry O dd smith, to traverse the steep side of the mount) in, via the “cut road.” 1 tell you, Mr. Editor, “them was squally times—they were and had it not been for the kindness of my boon compan¬ ion, who allowed me to walk abreast of him and on the upper side of him, and, at the same time, to hold to his arm, I could not have brooked it. All in all, my stay at the mountain was fraught with pleasure, and I will long remember my visit there. Thence I went to Marietta, the sprightly sub¬ urban little city of Atlanta. Marietta may welt lay claim to the siguifican 1 nomen of city, for she is backed by whole.ouUd, hospitable, high-minded, far -seeing, shrewd and hightoned merchants, not 'he least ol which is the firm of McKenzie it Wairen—my warm personal friends ; by wealth and capital, which is highly evidenced by its numerous palatial res¬ iliences ; liy it mills and factories—vide Check’s famous flouring mills. Brumby's celebrated chair factory, from which we get the wift ly known red-painted, varnished, and rustic rocking chairs, the hrgest, cheapest, easiest, and the most luxurious rocking chair in America, or in the world, as far as my knowledge and observa¬ tion goes. I need not mention the $ 1 , 000,000 Georgia Marble Works building, which is being erected in the outskirts of the town, between the W. & A. R. R. and the M. & N. G. R. R., and near by the above mentioned Brumby chair fac¬ tory. This gigantic building is being put up for the sole purpose of working the rich, inex¬ haustible, and incomparable Tate Marble Quarry up in Pickens—that famous North Georgia county. Marietta, which is well known, is loca¬ ted favorably (quite soj to health, and is quite a resort, at all seasons of the year, for invalids, who come mostly from the north. It is, I think, the prettiest town in North Georgia, being built around one of the shadiest, neatest and loveliest parks I ever saw ; and she keeps abreast with the times in a commercial, mercantile, business, me¬ chanical, manufacturing, religious, asthetic and literary sense, the last of which is evidenced by her sprightly “Journal,” edited by the brilliant and talented Col. Noah Neal. But I must turn my thoughts to the Gate CitT, to which place I proceeded from Marietta. The chief attraction there was the religious services —faintly a la Sam Jones—held in the warehouse of Messrs. Maddox, Rucker A Co., and conduc¬ ted by Rev. L. W. Munhall Atlanta is being shaken from centre to circumference, by this most excellent divine. But I must pass on. I have already spun this o*t four times as long as I intended when com mencing. At present I am in Clayton, which is my native county. I find the people here cheer¬ ful and hopeful as regards religion, politics, pro¬ hibition, government, society and “craps.”— Speaking of crops, like the other places where I have been, the dry weather and the rains have had effect here ; but, on the whole, I find the prospect for a bountiful yield of the soil very flattering. Jonesboro, besides being a dry town, is a re¬ ligious and an educational town. The Middle Georgia College, under the management of Prof. Ashmore and Mrs. Crawley, is in a very flour¬ ishing coadition. So, also, is Mrs. hield’s High School in a prosperous condition. These insti¬ tutions are now preparing for their annual com¬ mencement exercises, which come off shortly. At that time a grand jubilee is expected. Jones¬ boro rightly feels proud of her educational ad¬ vantages, and she always joint in heartily with her educators to make the commencement occa¬ sions one of joy, amusement, entertainment and benefit. I shall remain here until the latter part of the week. Respectfully yours. H. J. W. An Enterprising House.
