Lamar, will preach at Galilee church Sunday and Sunday night next. IdPMarshal Burns’ brigade are now mak ing the “ dirt fly” all over town, and some of the “ dilapidated” streets present quite a dif ferent appearance from what they did a short time since. [ A note from Thomas A. Nunn, Esq., says : “Crops good in this part of the coun ty. Corn is good—cotton better. Everything looks well in this neighborhood. Fine lands and flue people. Good meetings going on all right.” LnPMr. Joseph P. Bird, of Jackson coun ty, and Mrs. Mary E. Warne, only daughter of the late Col. S. J. Smith, of Banks county, were united in marriage on Sunday morning, Aug. Ist, by Rev. G. H. Cartledge, at the residence of the bride’s mother. TP"“ A Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever,” and to realize the force of the sentiment, one has only to take a walk over to the beautiful grounds, the nicely located fish-ponds, the fine orchards and the tasty and handsome residence of our “ rising” and enterprising fellow-citizen, Col. J. B. Silman. SP" Attention is called to the advertisement of Thos. A. Nunn, Esq. This property, we are informed, is well worthy the attention of any one expecting or desiring to purchase. The place is nicely located, premises com fortably fitted up, and all things combined, make it a desirable homestead. t=P* John M. Carithers, the only son of Mrs. M. E. Carithers, of Jackson county, departed this life Sunday night, August Ist, in the 18th year of his age. lie was a worthy mem ber of the Presbyterian church, and also of the order of Good Templars. We extend our hearty sympathies to his afflicted mother and sister and other relatives. UP*For several days and nights the present week, the atmosphere has been very much changed from what it was for the past few weeks. Quilts and coverlets have been in demand, especially “just before daj r .” The “ knowing ones” seem to think the recent rains were rather “ mixed up” with hail.— Hence the change. ever genial and fun-loving Sheriff, J. S. Hunter, Esq., perpetrated a practical ** joke” on a rattlesnake, near his residence, on Saturday evening last. Ilis snakeship was ornamented with eleven rattles and a button. Persons who saw it say it was a rouser.” As in this case, the “Dr.” is successful in auditing he under takes. UP* We tender thanks to many kind gen tlemen who have insisted that the “Forest News” should have a prominent place in the nature at Beech Creek, to-day. We shall be there, if possible. Everything, we learn, promises a day of interest and instruction from many minds of no ordinary calibre.— In addition to several others, we learn Gen. Colquitt will be present and address the (no doubt) large assembly. Up 1 The merry laugh, ’round about his “ usual haunts,” of that genial and clever young gentleman, Robbie Howard, tells most unmistakably, that he is again “on hand ;” and more, he is just from the Law School, at Athens, returns now with the proper docu ments, and will soon, no doubt, be initiated in the “ arts and mysteries” of the legal fra ternity. Mr. Howard, we understand, intends “ locating” in Jefferson. In this we welcome him. IV alk in, “ lemons,” and be squeezed ! UP"A full-blown cotton boll, with the fleecy staple hanging in rich profusion, is the latest sensation around about the News office. It was taken from the stalk on the Ist of An- gust, and comes from the plantation of C. W. Finch, Esq., of this county. Our printer boys, however, think the best “ joke*’ of the season was perpetrated by their near neighbor and most excellent farmer, J. E. Randolph, Esq., in presenting the “ office” some fine speci mens of his melon crop. The verdict of the “ grand inquest” is, “ Randolph’s melons can’t be beat,” and “Prof.” Bill Hunter, at his “emporium,” North-east corner of the “ Randolph House,” has a “ few more left of the same sort! !! ” Later! —“Hang out your banner on the outer walls—the cry is, still they come”— and we are again under obligations to ’Squire Randolph for a “ cantelope” weighing some 18 or 20 pounds. Ours is an “ independent press,” and while we have on all occasions commended the ’Squire for his many noble traits of character, yet, as a defender and promoter of the welfare of society in general, we now most respectfully protest against his manner and mode of life. A man so provi dent in every respect, so successful in all his various pursuits as farmer, trader and busi ness-man generally, is, according to our judg ment, committing a gross outrage on society, by eking out the miserable existence of a bachelor. Some of our lady readers may, however, have to be consulted in the matter. What say you, ladies ? Value of Bermuda Grass. A citizen of this place began to pasture several head of horses on four acres of this grass, about the first of May. They were j worked hard through the Summer, fed on corn only once a day ; but kept in good working order through the season. A neighbor turn ed his cow in this pasture when she was giv ing about three pints of milk per day. Now, at the expiration of only two weeks, the same cow is giving upwards of two gallons of milk ! per day. What would do any better ? I Jackson Court of Ordinary. Last Monday being the first Monday in the month, was “ Court, in course.” So ye re porter again finds some items or scraps of news for the readers of the News, that pos sibly may not prove altogether uninteresting. His Honor Judge Howard disposed of a considerable amount of business during the day, and a portion of the time was honored with quite a number of parties, witnesses and spectators. to sell the land of the late Bennett Strickland, was granted to Thomas D. Hawks, the Administrator of the estate of said de ceased. Henry D. Human, Administrator of Josiah Human, obtained leave to sell the land of his decedent. The application of H. C. Appleby, Execu tor of the will of the late James Appleby, for leave to sell the land belonging to said de ceased, was also granted. David A. and Dilmas P. Camp produced the will, and codicil thereto, of Berriman S. Camp, who recently died, which was proven in common form and admitted to record, the propounders and nominated executors were duly qualified and letters testamentary were issued to them. This will is understood to have disposed of a considerable amount of property among the ofT-spring of this good man. Hon. W. L. Marler, who wrote the will, and whose excellent lady is a daughter of the testator, was present counselling the Executors. Letters of Administration on the estate of Abijah Wilbanks, deceased, were granted to the applicants, H. M. and T. M. Wilbanks, and appraisers were appointed to appraise the estate. Judson L. Johnson, minor of Mary E. Johnson, being over fourteen } r ears old, and standing in need of a Guardian, selected Mr. W. C. Johnson, and the Court, adjudging the choice to be a good one, confirmed it by ap pointing Mr. Johnson. Mr. P. R. Martin, one of the Executors of Jonathan Martin, deceased, tendered his re signation, which was accepted, upon his set tling with the co-Executor, Mr. T. N. High fill, who is henceforth to be charged with the execution of the will. Wm. M. Smith, Administrator of W. C. Harris, deceased, filed an application for leave to sell land. Citation ordered to issue. The Court not being able to find some oth er fit and proper person, proposed to vest the Guardianship of certain minors in our popu lar and efficient Clerk of the Superior Court; but that clever gentleman, singularly enough, evinced a decided disinclination to have re sponsibilities thrust upon him in this wise, and when this reporter retired from the Court room, his Honor’s persuasive reasoning and vague suggestions about proceedings for con tempt, had alike failed to win the young gen tleman from what the Judge seemed to re gard “the error of his ways.” The reporter notes the fact that some doubts are expressed by several members of the legal fraternity as to the power of the Ordinary to compel the giving of a bond by the Clerk in such cases. If such power does not exist, it would seem like a lame place in the law, and one which ought to be remedied, otherwise the adminis tration of law in such cases appears to be im practicable. Reflecting in this manner, your reporter naturally asked himself the question, what will the Judge do with these orphans ? When it occurred to him that the benevolent Ordinary would have to take them in charge himself, according to a decision the reporter remembers to have heard his Honor make once upon a time. And thus the vexed ques tion found a solution in the mind of the re porter. The only litigated case before the Court was the case of W. P. Carter, applicant for Letters of Administration on the estate of Obadiah Carter, deceased, which application was caveated by O. G. W. Carter. Applicant was represented by Col. Silman, and caveator was represented by Col. Pike. After hearing some testimony and the arguments of these legal gentlemen, the Judge over-ruled the caveat, and decided to grant letters to the applicant, from which decision caveator ap pealed, paid the cost, gave bond and the case therefore goes before Judge Rice for further adjudication. This closed the business of the daj”, and Uncle John, the Sheriff, by di rection of the Court, proclaimed an adjourn ment until the next regular term, when j’e reporter hopes, if life and health will permit, to be on hand again. nPDr. H. J. Long, of Jefferson, Gn., has purchased Dr. Baile}’’s elegant residence, on Spring street, and we understand contem plates making Gainesville his home. Dr. L. is a splendid gentleman, and we extend to him an earnest welcome. We suppose that Dr. Bailey will now enter the ministry in good earnest. The above paragraph, taken from the Gainesville Southron of the 4th instant, pre sents us with a subject upon which we hardly know how to comment. ’Tis true, we could remark, we are sorry—very sorry to record the fact. But that don't “ fill the bill.” Dr. Long is Mayor of our town ; is one of the most affable and hightoned gentlemen in the county ; stands at the “ head of his profes sion,” and the gravest and most important question of all is, when he leaves who is to fill his place ? With this question we dismiss the subject, except to remark, that while we, in common with the whole community, will deplore his loss, yet, we believe there is no place in which so clever and useful a citizen as Dr. H. J. Long will be more highly appre ciated than in the “ Queen City of the Moun tains.” LAND for SALE.
