Sot His Game, but Cou!d* Hold It!
Oil last Sunday, iilformat|pn brought
to thU place4hat one of the Aiadiners (Jones)
who fcapttl tYoin tlMil Inge Jout the 30th
,a^ cn W r
then in prison in Covington, Newton county.
She: itf 1 i itutor, wit^(h^j\i^ual into,
made arrangements to go over and escort the
gentleman liacklo the quarters from which he
had sq lyiceremoniopsly leave, and on
Monday, djy his Marshal
F nom the latter city the two proceeded to
( ovington by rail on Tuesday. Our worthy
Sheriff, after hand-cuffing and otherwise
securing (as he thouglA) his prisoner, left
Covington for Athens, about 1 o’clock, A. M.,
Wednesday. J hings went on smoothly till
the train reached Buckhead, a station between
Madison and Greensboro’. At this point the
train stopped, as usual} anjd, was moving
off, and before it got under full headways the
prisoner,, taking advantage of the conductor s
►passagethrough tU.car, in the discharge of
duty, made a sudden dash for f.hp. dooi*
which was open, and which he cleared at a
bound, and by the aiddark
ness made good his escape. Sheriff Hunter
had tied a rope around body in addition
to having him hapcUcuffed. But by some
means Jil (tlijQ had squirmed and
twisted his body about until he got the knot,
which was at his back, round in front, when
he untied it and awaited an opportunity to do
just what HA did. The t&o officers, father
and-eop harUagreed to take i| “l%iW
in watchiflg fheir man.’ 'inWc'frMf vr. *F.
liunter was not close perhaps
was asleep—at the time, and, could reader his
father no agsistanpe. AYhile we, in comipon
with eVety one, regret the escnpfe i>iP tlrishAafe
(whose real name is from the officers,
yet we believe they discharged their duty
faithfully ; and the escape of their prisoner
was simply one of those incomprehensible
misfortunes that occur every rfeice and a
while, and for which there is no accounting.
The lights in the ear at-that-time of night-are
generally low and dim, and the Sheriff, who
had a seat clo9e by tiie prisoner all the time,
and Was provided with a good pistol, too, bad
not been able to detect any movement on the
prisoner's part, and as the conductor passed
with his, lantern the man was lying with life
feet over the arm of the seat as if asleep.—
All this, however, proved a ruse, the sequel to
which was his dash for the door at a moment
least expected. * ** **JL w
It will be remembered that the man in ques
tion, when arrested for breaking into the store
of Mr. Smith, in this county, some few months
since, gave his name as Jones. Ilis real name
is Kelley, and he is well known, and was per
haps raised in Newton county. His father is
in jail now at Covington, and a reward of
S6OO is offered for his brother, who stands
convicted of the murder of Air. Ilardemau in
that section two or three years since, and
who, I>3' some meaps, escaped froii) the oT
'icers of justice.
Quarterly Meeting at Dry Pond.
Through a miscalculation as to the time
ip|H)intcd. the Presiding Elder, Roy., A. G.
\\ oiiley, failed to reach Dry Pond on Sat
urday last, but met with his brethren and
friends on Sabbath, on which occasion the
services of the day .arc reported as being ve
ry interesting indeed. The regular business
of the Quarterly Conference was transacted
on Saturday, the preacher in charge, Rev.
W. A. Fakuis. in the chair. \<. /
“ Dance ail niff/it till broad day-litfht.
Go home with the girls in the moniing r '\
This ancient “ ditty” and tenet of former
days, was brought fresh to memory the other
morning on seeing a wagon loaded with the
youth and beauty of Jefferson, on its jolly
return from an all night’s “ hop” out at the
hospitable mansion of Capt. A. T. Dennett,
some four miles,from town. Another “be%;y”
of the same sort, had an exceedingly pleas
ant time at Mr. S. lb Weir’s, the same* ltight,
as we learn from some who wore present.
EdP’Well, Dr. H. J. Long has about closed
out and moved, preparatory to selling per
manently in Gainesville. In this ’land of
the free” it’s the provinoc of every one to do
the best he can; still we frtnftd have been
glad to have the I)r. remain with us. He will
be sadly missed in this community, and he
carries with him to his new home, the good
wishes of as large a circle bf'friends
erally falls to the lot qf one man.
tJF’Rev. W. A. Farris has commenced, in
earnest, to improve the lot lately purchased
tty him from J. E. Randolph, at “west end.”
The improvements of Air. Farris and Air. llill
Randolph, and Air. Winburn’s new shop, all
in close proximity, will soon give ah air of
liveliness to that part of town. But it’s “by
industry we .thrive,” and all these gentlemen
deserve thanks for their commendable, exam
ple amid these h-a-r-d t-i-m-e-s.
Orfhe party alluded to in our last issue,
as being severely cut with an axe, was Air.
John Arnold, some twelve-or thirteen tmlps
from Jefferson, in a southwesterly direction.
When Dr. Hunt reached him, Air. Arnold was
in a .critical condition from loss of blood.
On examination, the Dr. found that an artery
had been severed; this he “took up, ’ wash
ed and otherwise “ cleaned out” and then
dressed the wound, and at latest advices the
patient was. doing very well.
If?’ Prof. Glenn, and his son Frank, while
out gunning last Friday or Saturday, came
across and killed a very large horned owl —
firing only eighteen loads of squirrel shot into
it’s body before it to cymf (hoicji.
One of the feet, before us as this paragraph
is indited, measures five inches across. The
“bird” was near five feet across from the tip
end of the wings, and weighed about six
pounds.

Good Templars’ Convention.
By the proceedings,-- published in another
place, it will be seen that this body con
vened in Jefferson,, according, to previous
announcement, on yesterday, (Friday.) 21st
ifist. The proceedings, or at least so much
as we are enabled to get in type before going
to pres, “ speak for themselves," and as we
are not of the “order” we cannot speak fur
ther of what transpired within the “mystic”
walls of the lodge room.
At 12 M., the delegates and all members
of the order marched in procession from the
lodge room to the Methodist Church, where
a goodly number of citizens—ladies and gen
tlemen—had already assembled, and after
singing the “openingode” and an appropri
ate prayer by W. Chap. Cartledge, of
Stonewall Lodge, addresses were delivered
by Rev. W. B. Rutherford, of Jackson co.,
and H. K. Shackelford, Esq., of Atlanta.
Neither of these gentlemen made a “ set
speech,” 'they were both impromptu— and
were delivered in fine style ; and the frequent
plaudits of the entire assembly, and the mark
ed attention which was given to each speaker
showed that they “carried their hearers with
them.” Appropriate odes were sung between
and at the close of the addresses of these
worthy advocates of a worthy cause. At the
dose of the speaking it was announced that
the 1 delegates would meet at the lodge room
of*Stenewall Lodge, for tile further transac
tion of the business pf the-Convention.
The proceedings show the number of dele
gates present. Asa body, they will compare
very favorably with the same number of gen
tlemen and ladies from any quarter, and their
intelligent countenances, refined and courte
ous bearing and deportment prove beyond
cavil, that the temperance cause in the “Ninth
District” has, among its ‘’working” advo
cates, some of the master spirits of the Em
pire State.
At night there was a public temperance
meeting, when speeches were made by G. W.
C. T. J. G. Thrower, and others.
Being compelled to go to press before the
adjournment of the Convention, we give the
proceedings only up to that time.

\Y Oman’s Best Friend.—To relieve the ach

reigued supreme, is a mission before which the

styled Woman’s' Best Friend. The distressing
complaint known as the “whites,” and the yari
