It is Claimed that the stock law lias ad¬ vanced the price of land in Oglethorpe coun'y 50 per cent. The Evening News thinks the election m Ohio resulted in a radical ehange in the government of that Btate. Fulton county will vote on the whisky Question on the 23d of November. The fight is already waxing warm. The Constitution thinks the result of the election in Ohio was something of disappointment. a Well, probably it was to—Gov. lloadly, but not to the country. J lie new 10-cent delivery stamp does not carry a letter ahead of the mails, It only pays for the delivery of the letter af ter it gets to where it is going t It is said Judge Foraker, the newly elec¬ ted governor of Ohio, with other promi¬ nent republicans, will go to Virginia and stump that state for the Mali one republi¬ cans. Bill McGaugfcey, colored, was hanged in Monroe, Walton county, last Friday, for the murder of his wife, last February. He was said to have been a very bad ne¬ gro. Mr. Powell, in the post office room, is the boss jeweler. We have had some work done by the best watch smiths in Atlanta, but Mr. Powell beats them all.— That’s the way we have found it. Two little children, a boy and a girl, were playing together. The girl said to the boy, “You hurt me, madam.” The hoy said, “I ain’t no madam. Mamma says you are a madam and I am a scamp.'” At Richmond, Va., the suit of Blind Tom’s mother against Betiiune for Tom’s earnings amljfor htH delivery to her, has been decided in favor of Betiiune as bis guardian. He is, however, not allowed to take him beyond the state without permission of the court.—[Atlanta Capi to!. Those wanting to purchase sash, blinds paiiitf, oils, or any other kind of buihleis in iterial, would do well to send their or¬ ders to Mr. E. W- Hewitt, at (tl Decatur s reet. Atlanta.

They de¬ fy competition in prices. A young man named James Lesseter, in Butts county, had liis hand so badly lacerated by a cotton gin, one day last week, that his arm had to be amputated. He is u |M.ior but most woithy young unto, and the loss of his arm is a very serious one to him. He has the public sympathy in his sad misfortune. The Madisonian thinks Madison is one of the most orderly towns in the slate.— That is a mutter of much gratulaiion for our contemporary. But, our friend should come up to Covington if he wants to see good order, good sidewalks and splendid streets. Covington leads the van in these particular lines, and don't you fail to re¬ member this fact, Brother Blackburn. The Madisonian says the people of Monticello cannot be roused to an inter¬ est in tie Georgia Midland railroad, and the reason is because their whole soul is wrapped up in the Covington and Macon railroad. Well, that is all right. The peo¬ ple >f Monticello want a railroad, and they see a better prospect for getting one by catching onto the Covington and Ma¬ con enterprise. Col. J. N. Hale, of the Conyers Weekly Farmer, bus retired aud “Salutatory, i »as appeared. It maps out a plain course and proposes to serve the people of Rockdale to the best of its ability, It avows itself democratic aud espouses the cause of the farmer. The paper is now in the hands of Prof. Jas. I. Coleman and R. J. Guinn, Jr. Gentlemen, may your success be abundant The Star takes pleasure in hailing you as brothers in the journal¬ istic ranks. We have inadvertently omitted to men¬ tion the fact that our beautiful little neigh¬ boring city of Madison now enjoys the luxury of a charming and bright daily Madisonian. It is a bright, newsy, and excellent little daily paper, and would be a credit to a much larger town than Mad¬ ison. It seems to be well patronized by the merchants of Madison, which speaks well for their public spirit and liberality. We hope the daily Madisonian will live long, and always be a credit to our charm¬ ing neighbor—Madison. In the course of a few weeks Covington will have the daily weather reports of the Alabama Signal Service, and the same will be indicated by flags hoisted on the west tower of our new court house, where everybody can see them. The cost of putting up the flag pole and furnishing the flags will be about $30 or $35, but the weather reports will be furnished daily free of cost. The city council of Coving¬ ton will pay for fitting up for displaying the flags, and the public will thus have the benefit of these valuable reports free of charge. When the flags are put up, the Star will publish an explanation of them, so the public may understand the signals, and what is indicated by each flag, • Personal Mention.

Livingston took time from his farm, railroad, and state fair duties, to run into Cov¬ ington and get his mail, on Monday morning. Handsome John Earrill, who has been en¬ gaged in business at Dallas, Ga., for sometime past, is now with his old friends in Covington. Two of Covington’s popu'-r and prosperous young merchants, were formerly printers in the Star office. Nothing like having a good start. Mr. John Dealing is the must fearless driver in Covington. A pair of Texas ponies, in their wildest state, is about as gentle a team as he cares to drive. A certain Covington clerk thinks the prettiest girls in the world live in Rocky Plains district, and he can’t understand why it always rains when he has an engagement out that way. It was once said of a citizen of Covington, who is now a prominent and successful business man, that he first made his appearance in our city with a drove of fat ’possums. Mr. W. T. Stone, of Oxford, returned from Dallas, Texas, a few* days ago, and is now con¬ tent to make hisjuture home among the red hills of Georgia. The Star welcomes him back to his old home. Mr. James R.

Little Thomas, after a short siege of illness, gently breathed his last about ten o’clock. It was a very promising child, a source of joy, beyond measure, to its fond parents. Why should we mourn the loss when Heaven lias gained the dear one? Or count it hard that God has taken the precious infant in liis arms? The writer, sitting by the corpse, shared the sad tears with the bereaved parents. Sleep on, sleep on, little one, dear one, in the arms of Jesus. A friend, C. F. A.
