I L is said there are $93,000,000 in gold in Pe sub-treasury Fraacisco, of the United States at ai) and that it would require ,' Jla s ' x eight months to count it.

The old bachelor tax bill hasbeen with drawn from tiie legislature. •••**• Last Saturday was quite a lively busi¬ ness uay in Covington. The net income of the London Times is estimated to be about $2,500,030 nma pe r an Beware of bad colds at this season, as they are worse now than in the dead of winter. Just think of it. Albany was expecting to receive 100 bales of new cotton last Saturday, The people of Virginia ought to be wise enough to sit down on John, and elect I' itzhugh Lee governor. Conyers, Social Circle and Newborn were all well represented at the game of base ball in Covington, on Friday. It costs the United States government $100,000 to transport $40,(WO,000 in gold from San Francisco to New York. The election on the question of prohi¬ bition, in Madison county, last Wednes¬ day, resulted in a majority of 104 against prohibition. The Lawrenceville Herald wants to know if the good crops is not one of the benefits of the democratic administration. Well, they were a much needed reform. The Lord Chief Justice of England— Coleridge—was married to an American woman, last Saturday afternoon. This looks like the two countries were becom¬ ing united. Ninety four per cent, of the chickens raised b_v an Americus colored woman, the present year, have been stolen. But the thieves were right considerate in leav¬ ing her the balance. The farmer who is not happy now, and satisfied with his crop prospects, would hardly be satisfied with anything short of a regular freshet of manna. But the crops are fine anyhow. Mr. John S. Shipley, one of the oldest citizens of Conyers, died at his home in that place, last week, of dropsy, lie was about 05 years of age, and was well known to the people of Ibis section. Lightning struck the ground, in the middle of a large cotton field, belonging to the late Dr. J. B. Hendrick, of Cov¬ ington, a few years ago, and killed all the cotton ou about a quarter of an acre of laDd. The Augusta Chronicle lus a rumor that Capt. W. G. Raoul, of the t enlral railway, is negotiating for the right of way to con¬ struct a belt road around Augusta, ai d for land to build the company’s shops on, outside of the city. A claim lias been laid to about 10,000 acres of land about Harlem, New York, including Riverside Park, where Gen. Grant’s tomb is located. The claim is based on an old patent granted in 1067 The lands are now worth $600,000,000. The London papers think there is no country in the world which could have gjtten up such a funeral for one of its dead citizens, as this country did for Gen. Grant. And the London papers are right. America now leads the world in every¬ thing. Our new city clock is now in full run¬ ning order, and will keep the standard time, which is the same as the Georgia railroad time, and that is the time all our people are interested in keeping. All time pieces should now be set with the clock, as it will be the regulator for the entire community. It will be a great convenience. Louis Ilencke, one of the Atlanta team of professional base ball players, met with a fatal accident, during the game last Fri¬ day, which resulted in his death Saturday. He had batted the ball, and was making the run* to the first base at a rapid speed. The ball was caught and thrown to first baseman, who missed it. While trying to pick up the ball, Hencke, ran into him, his head striking Hencke in the stomach with such force as to rupture his liver.— His remains w ere taken to Cincinnati for burial. The committee appointed by the last grand jury to examine the public records and property of our county, and to inves¬ tigate the official acts of all our county officers for the past four years, entered upon their duty last week, and are now making a thorough and searching exami¬ nation into all matters pertaining to the public weal of our county, The commit tee consists of Messrs. 0- H. Tucker, T P. Guinn and Edward Heard, who are all fine business men, and capable of ma¬ king a thorough and complete investiga¬ tion of our county affairs. It will require several weeks to complete the investiga¬ tion. The Atlanta Capitol says it has seen a copy of the fignres in the account of the Atlanta post office under Postmaster Con¬ ley, with the United States government, and that the government came out indebt¬ ed to him in the sum of $886.52. W e are glad to learn this, because Mr. Conley was removed from the Atlanta post of¬ fice in a very arbitrary and inexcusable manner last year, which left the iniP rcs ' sion on the public mind that the affairs ol the office were in a bad shape, and that Mr. Conlev was in arrears with the gov¬ ernment. The settlement shows this to have been incorrect, and fully establishes Mr. Conley’s integrity and correctness. Personal Mention. Mr. and Mrs. Stacy left last week for Texas, where they will make their future home. Miss Maud Cause, of Atlanta, is enjoyiag pleasant a trip through the northwesL Miss Annie Hopkins, of Oxford, has been spending a few days with friends in N ewnan. Mrs. Dr. Webb, of Snapping Shoals, is enjoy¬ ing a few weeks’ visit at her old home in Monti cello. Col L. F. Livingston was re-elected president of the State Agricultural Society, last week, by acclamation. Elder Moon, member of the legislature from Cobb county, preached at Harris Spring, last Sunday. ' Miss Alice Simms, of Midway, and Miss Willie Conyers, are down at Lexington, visiting Miss Mattie Callaway. Mrs. John P. Cheney, of Atlanta, is spending a few weeks at her old home in Newton county —Josiah Perry's. Mr. Fayette I.uckey, of Americus, but form¬ erly of Walton county, was here last week among his old friends. Miss Annie Heath, of Clarkston, and Miss \\ illie Dorsett, of Covington, are visiting rela¬ tives at Kingston. Miss May Livingston, of Midway, has been enjoying a pleasant visit among friends in At¬ lanta, during the past week. Mr. Jay Smith, who has been connected with McBride & Co., of Atlanta, has gone to San Francisco, California, to engage in business. We reget to learn that Mr. Edgar Allen, of Oxford, while riding a mule, near Augusta, last week, was thrown off and his arm broken. Cols. L. F. Livingston, B. W. Frobell and E. C. Machen, of the Covington and Macon railroad, were down at Clinton, last Saturday. They passed through Covington, on yester lay, on their w?y to Monticello. They are getting things into satisfactory shape for building the road. Capt. Bill Grant, the boss brick maker of mid die Georgia, was here last week, entertaining the boys with his remarkable adventures in Wilkes county. Charming little Miss Maud Penn, of Monti¬ cello, spent several days with friends in Coving¬ ton, last week. She gave the Star a call.— Come again. Mr. John B. Davis presided at the regular meeting of council, last week, as mayor pro tern. He “filled the big chair” with a great deal of dignity and ability. Prof. Henry J. Wallis, of Union academy, in Rockdale county, was jij town among his friends, last Saturday. He gave the Star a pop call. Lord Chief Justice Coleridge, of England, was married in London, last Saturday afternoon, to an American lady named Miss Amy Augusta Jackson Law ford. Thus England and America are at last united. Elder I. S. Almand, of Morgan county, was stricken with paralysis, a few days ago, and now lies in a very critical condition. He is a promi¬ nent Primitive Baptist minister, and his many friends in this section will be pained to learn of his affliction. The Athens Chronicle publishes the following record of an Athens man exchanging kisses with, his wife, which the man certifies is rnrr««t, we expect it is : First year, 36,509 ; second year, 3,951 ; third year, 120 ; fourth year, 2 .— That closed the score. Only one bale to the acre, is beginning to be regarded as very common cotton, in this section. Co!. Fred C. Foster, of Madison, is writ¬ ing a very interesting history of Morgan county for the Madisonian. The big snake stories have crowded the big fish stories out of the market this season. The Athens Chronicle still sticks to it that the voice of Athens is for the Clayton extension of the Northeastern R. R. Oxford has at last “caught ou" to the railroad boom and now wants the Covington and North Georgia railroad built through the town. The new Methodist church, at Conyers, was dedicated last Sunday. It is an ele¬ gant new building, and has a seating ca pacity of about GOO Elder J. M. Brittian has been conduct¬ ing an interesting meeting at Conyers dur¬ ing the past week. Several persons have united with the church. The closing exereises of Prof. Henry J. Wallis’s school, at Union academy, in Rockdale county, will take place next Friday, the 21st insf. The building of the Madison, Monticel¬ lo and Griffin railroad now seems to be almost an assured fact. Tho people are working for it like beavers, from one end of the line to the other. The first nine of Covington and the first nine of Social Circle, played a match game of base ball, on the grounds of the former in Covington, on last Friday ev¬ ening, which resulted in a score of 9 to 1 in favor of the Covington boys. The game was an interesting one, and was well played by both clubs. A large crowd was here to witness it, and the friends of the Social Circle club came up in large numbers from Social Circle and Newborn, who were greatly disappointed over the defeat of their favorites. We shall be glad to know they are more suc cessful next time. Rev. J. R. Speck, pastor of the Metho¬ dist church at Canton, made an attempt to commit suicide, by cutting liis throat with a pocket knife, and then jumping into the river- Mr. Speck is a graduate of Emory college, and is well known by many of our oltizens. He was a room¬ mate, while at Emory college, of Rev. M, D. Turner, who committed suicide a few weeks ago at Stone Mountain, by taking strychnine, Mr. Speck is said to be de¬ ranged on the subject of holiness. He was rescued by liis friends, and will not die. It is expected the scaffolding will be removed from around the new court house this week. The Home Comfort, or Wrought Iron Range Company, are now engaged in selling their ran ges in jjiis county. These ranges are said to be a good thing, and many people are buying them. The company sells them by salesmen who travel through the country in wagons. They are meet¬ ing with fine success wherever they go. Gen. Goode Bryan, of Augusta, died at hi* home in that city on last Sunday afternoon, of paralysis. Gen. Bryan was a graduate of West Point, and served with distinguished gallantry in the Mexican war. He remained in the regular army until the late war broke out, when he res¬ igned his commission in the federal army and united with the confederates. He rose to the rank of brigadier general, and succeeded Gen. Paul J, Semmes, who was killed at Gettysburg, in the command of his brigade, Gen. Bryan remained in command of the brigade until the summer of 1864 , when he was succeeded by Gen. J. P. Simms, of Covington. He was 74 years old when he died. A Great Discovery. Mr, Wm. Thomas, of Newton, la., says : “My wife has been seriously affected with a cough for twenty-five years, and this spring more severely than ever before. She had used* many remedies without relief, and being urged to try Dr. King’s New Discovery, did so, with most gratifying results. The first bottle relieved her very much, and the second bottle has absolutely cured her. She lias not had so good health for thirty years.” Trial bottles free at Brooks & Ivy's Drug Store Large size $ 1 , 00 . Railroad Meeting in Oxford. The citizens of Oxford held a meet iogat Palmer Institute on Saturday, tho lothinat., for the purpose of giv¬ ing expression to their interest in the Covington and North Georgia rail* road. Dr. Atticus G. 1 Jay good was made president, and W. \V. Evans, score* tary. The object of the meeting having been stated, Messrs. Harry and Thom¬ as Camp were requested to give such information concerning the road, its status, route, &c„ as they wore able to give.
