Sad Misfortune.
it n emotions of deep regret we are called
upon to announce the destruction, by fire, on
Sunday morning last, of t|e fine residence of
C<3. K H. Lkog v some miles north of Jeffer
son. W e learn that Col. Legg and lady were
not at home; their son, * yoytfy about six
teen years of age, being the only one of the
family on the premises at the time of the
burning. Our knowledge of this sad misfor
tune has been obtained only-by “hear-say,”
and we may be mistaken as to minor points ;
the fire was discovered in the roof of the
house, somewhere near the chimney, perhaps.
The building and contents—except a few
articles—were entirely consumed. No insu
rance as we know of.
—Since the above was put in type,
we have received a call from Mr. R. M. Wil
son, a near neighbor to Col. Legg. From
him we learn that Mr. Legg’a theory as to the
origin of the fire is, that it was carried up
stairs by a cat that was in the habit of “ ly
ing in the ashes,” as the term goes—and also
had an occasional lodging place among some
mattresses in the upper story of the house.
The intelligent reader will at onee see how
readily such a thing might have occurred, es
pecially when (as Mr. Wilson informs us) the
burnt bones of the cat were found in such
position as to render the impression still
stronger that it was through this means the
fire was communicated to the upper part of
the building. We are informed that Col. Legg
has no idea the house was set on fire in any
other way than by accident, geveral beds
and mattresses and sonic wearing®apparel
was saved, but this is insignificant when com
pared to the great loss sustained in the de
struction of the building, furniture and hun
dreds of articles which cannot now be enu
merated. The loss is a heavy one to Col.
Legg, and the misfortune is to be lamented
the more especially, when the exceedingly
pinching times—in money matters—are tak
en in consideration. And in view of these
circumstances, would it not be well for some
of our benevolent and philanthropic citizens
to investigate the matter, and see if a little
material aid would not only be acceptable,
but if it is not actually necessary in the pre
mises ? We know nothing of Col. Legg's
condition, financiall}’, and simply throw out
these suggestions as worthy of thought by a
noble and generous people.
February Sale Day.
Tuesday last being quite an unfavorable
day. there was but comparatively few people
in town. Notwithstanding, however. Sheriff
Hunter, not to be outdone, instead of getting
his audience before the Court House door, got
them inside of the door and proceeded with
his show as usual. One lot of land, levied on
as the property of C. C. Thompson, was sold
acres—to J. E. Randolph, forsl 125.00.
202| acres, belonging to the estate of Jona
than Martin, dec’d, was bought by J. li. New
ton, for $11.20. Mr. N. is generally on hand
when a bargain is on the t tapis.” , Thus end
ed the “exercises” of the day. There was
some other property advertised, but “circum
stances frequently alter cases,” and so it was
in this instance.
In “perigrinating” round about the “tem
ple of justice” a little, we noticed some of the
members of the Hon. Board of Commissioners
of Roads and Revenue on hand. Whether or
not there was a convocation of that body we
are unable to advise the readers of the Forest
Nkvvs at present. As beforer intimated, there
were comparatively few persons in town, and
the business of the day over, there was not
much inclination on the part of the few pres
ent to tarry, consequently, before eventide
the most of them were homeward bound,
while the little town In the forest pursued the
even tenor of its way.
S. D. Mitchell, No. 6, Granite Row, Athens,
Georgia.
Attention is called to the advertisement of
the above gentleman, successor of Pittard,
Mitchell & Cos., to be found in the columns
of the “News” this week. The old firm was
noted for the attentiveness ofall connected with
the house —from the Senior to the Junior of
the firm—as well as all attaches—to ttie wants
of customers; while open-handed, honest,
fair-dealing was one of the characteristics for
which this house gained an unenviable rep
utation. In the hands and under the man
agement of Capt. Mitchell, as successor, it is
safe to presume that not only will its escutch
eon remain untarnished, but that a brighter
lustre will, if possible, be given to the “busi
ness firmament” of the “old stand.” We
have been requested by Capt. Mitchell, to say
that the usual “option” of cotton at 15 cts.
will be given on all fertilizers purchased from
his house. We take pleasure in commending
our gallant young friend and his new busi
ness to the kind consideration of the trading
public generally.
Picture Gallery.
Our young fellow-citizen, Mr. A. H. Brock,
is—or will be in a few days—prepared to exe
cute everything in the above line, in the most
artistic and approved style. lie has taken
charge of and re-fitted the well known rooms,
up-stairs, between “ Undo Billy Thompson's
old corner” and the store of Messrs. Stanley
& Pinson—has had new steps put up, and
arranged in various ways for the comfort, and
accommodation of his patrons. Mr. Brock is
to the “ manor born,” and in addition, is one
of the worthiest young men in the communi
ty ; and we bespeak for him a patronage
commensurate with his energy, industry and
enterprise.
A most daring burglary was committed at
Northampton, Mass., on Tuesday night of
last week, by masked robbers, the result of
which is almost appalling. The amount stol
en from the National Bank of Northampton,
is $720,000. The robbery was accomplished
bv seven men, who had been hanging about
the town for at least a month.
More Store-Breaking.
On Monday night last, the store of Mr.
Messer, some seven miles northwest of Jef
ferson, was entered, by breaking through a
window shutter, and some seventeen dollars
in money, and goods and other articles,
amounting to some forty-five or fifty dollars,
taken out. From sufficient causes, suspicion
was directed to a man named Wm. A. Kin
ney, who, it appears, had been loitering about
the store for some days previous. A search
warrant was taken out and the premises of
Kinnej* searched, the result of which was
that some of the stolen articles were found
secreted in the woods (we believe) not far
from his house. Kinney was therefore ar
rested, and then made a confession, implica
ting a youth or young man in the neighbor
hood, named Anderson Whitmire, stating
that he, Kinney, and Whitmire, broke in the
store and then divided the stolen propert}'.
Whitmire was also arrested and made a con
fession and told where his share of the
spoils were concealed. The two offenders
were brought to Jefferson on Wednesday
afternoon last, spending the night in jail. On
Thursday morning a preliminary or commit
ting trial was had before Judge Pittman, who
fixed the bond for their appearance at the
Superior Court at SI,OOO each. Failing to
give the bond required, they are now, at the
time of this writing. (Thursday night) locked
up in that house from which so many have
heretofore escaped—the county jail.
The Weather—Sudden Change.
As is well known, for some time past the
weather has been quite spring-like and balmy,
while plum and other fruit trees have been in
bloom under the influence of its extraordi
nary mildness. But for some few days
previous and up to Tuesday evening, it was
evident a change was “brewing.” The alter
nations of warm and cold, fair and cloudy,
continued to Tuesday morning, when it com
menced raining in “first rate style”—being
showery throughout the day. About dark,
the “breaking up” shower fell, the clouds
dispersed to a good degree, and the wind
commenced blowing from the west and north
west—and at times it appeared as though we
were going to have a repetition of some of
last year's tornadoes. During the night the
wind ceased, but the weather had become in
tensely cold, and Wednesday morning proved
to be the coldest we have experienced this
winter. As there has been so little cold
weather up to the present, it behooves us all
to be prepared for the worst—for we will, no
doubt, have plent}' of “winter” yet. Speak
ing of the unusually mild weather through
which we have been passing, the Augusta
Chronicle <$- Sentinel says :
“We find in an exchange a statement that
the present winter resembles the celebrated
winter of 1822-3. From all accounts that
winter was as mild as this, with everything
in full bloom and full leaf all winter. Vege
tables of every kind were to be ha l during
the whole season, and fires were hardly ever
needed; but on the 16th of February the
weather suddenly changed in a few hours
from summer heat to intense cold, and ice
formed all along the Mississippi nearly down
to the mouth. All the orange and many of
the fig trees were killed, and numbers of
ovstennen and fishermen froze to death, as
did also many negroes in their cabins. Cat
tle and hogs froze to death in the fields and
woods, owing to the rapidity of the change
from heat to cold. It should be a warning
to us to make provision for violent changes
after so mild a winter.”
Bring Out your White Mule!
This is Leap Year, and now, if some or all
of the charming and beautiful “ belles” of
old Jackson arc not suited in a partner for
life, it will be their own fault. True it is,
that while we have no doubt the ladies,
“knowing their rights, will dare maintain
them,” still the truly brave and heroic are
always characterized by a corresponding
amount of modesty, lienee, we beg pardon in
giving a suggestion or two to our fair read
ers which may, perchance, assist them in
asserting their high immunity and privilege.
In the first place, it is our firm belief, and
we assume it as a foregone conclusion, that
man}’ of the young gentlemen o? Jefferson
and vicinity have been waiting patiently for
this auspicious time. These young men (be
it said to their credit) are exceedingly timid
and bashful, and if the 3 r oung lady to whom
each one has been so undeviating in his
attention, and who has been “escorted” by
him to this and to that little sociable, and
with whom he so much delights “to trip the
light fantastic toe” from “dusky eve till dewy
morn”—to whom he pays his devoirs in the
innocent pastimes of “ twistiftcation,” “ tuck
er,” “smack,” &c.—if, we repeat, each and
all these young lassies would only “ pop the
question,” what a load of anxiety would be
removed, and how many souls would be
“made happy!” A brother “ chip” informs
his readers that to meet with certain success
the young lady who starts out upon a hus
band hunting expedition must ride horse
back and be sure to have a white horse ; but
the luckiest individuals are those that pos
sess a white mule.
In imagination, let us draw a picture of all
the marriageable young ladies of town or
county, each mounted on a white mule, ren
devousing on the Public Square, preparatorj
to sallying forth in quest of a sharer of their
future joys and sorrows. What a combina
tion of the beautiful and ludicrous would be
presented ! But begging pardon, ladies, our
mission is ended —on this point; still, bear in
mind, it will be four years before you can
claim, according to late, the exercise of this
prerogative again.

A Pleasant Occasion.
To those acquainted with all the “ surround
ings,” it will not appear marvellous at all when
we acquaint them with the fact that quite a large
number of invited guests—residing in Jefferson
and vicinity—were present at the ‘ Randolph
House” on Thursday afternoon last, to witness the
celebration of the nuptials of Jas. E. Randolph,
Esq., and Miss Elizabeth C. Thompson, daugh
ter of Wm. 8. Thompson, Esq., familiarly known
as “Uncle Billy.” The bride and groom were
representatives of two families long known to
those who have become familiar with the history
of Jefferson and Jackson county. Each of these
families have also been long celebrated for their
well known hospitality, urbanity ami affability,
hence, as remarked in the outset, there is nothing
strange in the circumstance, that on so interesting
an occasion as the one in question, the doors
should have been opened wide and the guests al
most “ compelled to come in.'’ Preliminaries en
ded. at a few minutes after the hour of three, the
happy couple, whose hearts had so long throbbed
in unison, presented themselves before the officiat
ing minister, Rev. Groves H. Cartledge. who, in
that easy, graceful and dignified style so charac
teristic, united them in the holy bonds of matri
mony “ according to the laws of God and accord
ing to the Constitution and laws of the State of
Georgia.” The ceremony was performed in one
of the sitting rooms of the hotel, and was witness
ed by as many as could find “ standing room,”
though a great many were compelled to remain
outside.
Ample time having been given for Mr. and Mrs.
Randolph to receive the congratulations of their
numerous friends, dinner was announced. And
just here we are inclined to bring our narrative to
a close. Since our humble editorial career here,
we have had occasion to speak once or twice of
what the ladies of-Jackson county can do in this
line, and our vocabulary” is just about deplet
ed. Suffice it to say, that in arrangement, con
ception and artistic taste, the table, with its ad
mirably prepared viands, could not have failed to
meet the desires of the most devoted disciple of
Epicurus. And as wc partook of this rich repast
—surrounded on the right, the left, and in front,
by beautiful forms, beautiful figures and beauti
ful faces, we could not help thinking that if there
is any place in the world where the material to
make a good wife, a smart wife and a pretty wife
can be obtained. Jefferson is that place. So wish
ing that the choicest blessings of a benign Provi
dence may ever be the lot of our newly married
friends, we dismiss the subject till the “ next
turn.” However, lest we be too abrupt in our
conclusion, though there was no particular “ de
monstration” in the way of a “ party,” yet some
of the lads and lasses whiled away several hours
very pleasantly after most of the “ old folks’’ had
retired from the festive scene.
A Thomaston young man who is in the
West, thus paints the picture: “This is no
country for a poor man, and I assure you not
for an hottest one, for the better a man is,
the poorer his chances are. Fraud, deceit
and artifice are* walking rampant through
this State. There arc more fine churches
and less religion here than any State in the
United States. The air is tainted with curs
es and filled with black, murky clouds, and
the lambent fires of hell are kindling beneath.
If you were here, you would think that all
the gibbering imps of the infernal regions
were here with a band of fiends broke loose
from hell. All the men, women and children
drink Whisky, play cards and race horses
and bet.” .
