Dwelling House Robbed.
The residence of W. D. Smith, near Anti
och church, Jackson co., was entered on Sun
day, the 11th, and a SIO.OO gold piece
taken out of a chest. This, it seems, is all
that has been missed. Entrance was effect
ed by raising a sash —the thief climbing over
a petition or two, before reaching the room
wherein was the chest, which was broken
open. We have been requested to announce
that a liberal reward will be paid by Mr.
Smith, for the arrest of the thief w ith proof to
convict of the crime.

of wasting their money* on trashy engravings,

think of “what might have been ;” but take to

The Temperance Exercises
At the Baptist and Presbyterian church, Fri
day night of last week, were most excellent
ly conducted, and, we think, will, in the end,
have a good effect on some, at least, of those
present. Ihe speakers all acquitted them
selves with honor to their cause and the oc
casion. Mr. F. A. Glenn opened the “ball”
with a finely composed and well delivered ad
dress. prepared especially for the tilde being.
He was followed, with fine effect, l>v our “ris
ing” and popular young friend “Johnnie”
Ross, in some excellent “otf-hartU shots” that
knocked the “ black” out of the “ bulls-eye”
every fire. Then came W. C. Howard, Esq.,
in one of those hard, knock-down, common
sense, argumentative addresses for which the
Judge is so justly celebrated and fitted.—
Next followed Rev. TV. B. Rutherford, (uncle
Buck) in one of those felicitous and happy
little speeches which ever characterizes this
champion of the temperance cause. Mr. J.
G. Thrower, the “ head-centre” of the Good
lemplars of the State of Georgia, was then
introduced. And though our respected friend
never essays we believe, to make an address, he
always manages to have “something to say,’’
and the style and manner of his “ saying it”
never fails to make a deep impression on
those who “hear him for his cause.” At this
stage, the public installation of the officers
elect of Stonewall Lodge, I. O. G. TANARUS., was an
nounced to take place. The ceremony of
installation w’as then gone through with,
much to the edification and interest of the
“ uninitiated”, portion of the audience. This
feature of the exercises was iuterspered with
some of the beautiful songs of the “order,”
that accomplished young lady, Miss Kitty
Gober, TV. V. TANARUS., being the “leader” in this
appropriate and suitable accompaniment to
the other interesting exercises of the evening.
The “installation” over, the well satisfied
crowd was dismissed with a “ benediction”
by Rev. TV. B. Rutherford, when, about 9
o’clock, the spectators all retired to their
homes, while flic members of “ Stonewall’*
proceeded to their hall in discharge of' the
usual “ lodge” duties.
The following is a list of the officers pub
liclv installed on the occasion :

The Southern Cultivator.
As the end of 1877 approaches, wc nfe re
minded that the next number of the old
reliable, closes the volume for the present
year. And while Jackson and its adjoining
sisters have within their borders some of the
most successful farmers in the State, stiff, it
is no reflection on them to say they have not,
as yet, reached the goal of perfection in their
important calling and mission. There yet re
mains a great deal to be learned, and as the
most skilled and successful General never
ceases to refer to his maps and charts, and
book of “tactics” for instruction that can
nowhere else be found—no matter how well
fitted lie may be by practice and experience—
so the most successful farmer constantly
needs “new ideas” to assist him in a more
thorough and systematic tillage of his vari
ous crops and the numerous matters connect
ed therewith. To each and all of this large
class, (the farmers,) the writer most
cordially commend the Southern Cultivator ns
a “help-meet” indeed. Its teachings and in
structions are “home-made;” the result of
experiments made on home soil. Its editor
and the large number of contributors by whom
he is assisted every month, are tillers, to a
greater or less extent ,of Southern soil; hence,
this long-tried and old established agricultu
ral journal is, we think, entitled to a favora
ble consideration by Southern fanners in con
nection with their “plans” for the growing
campaign of another year. Published bv Dr.

Another “Hoss” on the Track!
The Gainesville Southron in hoisting the
name of John I. Cheatham, Esq., as an “in
dependent” candidate for Senator from the
33d District, has this to say :
John I. Cheatham, at the request of hun
dreds of the voters of Hall, Jackson and
Hanks, is an independent candidate for a seat
in the State Senate. Mr. Cheatham is, as
everv one knows, one of the first intellects
of the State ; a native Georgian, ever watch
ful of her interests; has spent more brain
and money in her development than perhaps
anv man in the State. Jackson county, his
old home, will give him seven hundred major
ity, and llall and Hanks will no doubt re
member John I. Cheatham with a good round
majority. The unbiased advice of the South
ron is to vote for this old veteran Georgian
for Senator. You cannot lose anything, as
he knows nothing but the interests of Geor
gia, and knows that well.

A Surgical Operation
Performed by our highly esteemed young
friend, Dr. TV. P. DeLaperriere, of Marcus,
Ga., assisted by Dr. Hardeman, of Monroe,
TT alton county, and witnessed by several of
the most respected citizens of the neighbor
hood—Mr. Jeff Lanier being the subject—
has been quite a matter of note in the com
munity where Mr. Lanier lives, for the past
week. From Dr. DeLapcrriere, who drop
ped in on us a day or two since, wc get the
following particulars:—
Mr. Lanier, above named, about seven
years ago, got his ankle sprained. From
that time his sufferings commenced—his leg
and foot swelling np to an enormous size,
and often being so painful as to threaten his
life. Especially had this been the case for
the past year or two —maybe more. Various
remedies had, as a matter of course, been
resorted to, and medical skill employed, but
all to no purpose. Hence, from the contin
ued intense suffering to which the patient
was subject, it became apparent that some
thing must be done to save life. Amputation
was the last resort; arid even this last re
course was viewed as extremely hazardous,
so completely prostrated had Mr. Lanier
become from his frequeut and now almost
unbearable sufferings. But to make a long
story short, a day was fixed and arrangements
agreed upon for the attempt, at least, of the
all-important operation. Inaction was death.
Nothing worse could ensue, in any event. —
Therefore, according to previous understand
ing, the medical gentlemen above named,
met at the residence of the sufferer, about
four miles southwest of Jefferson, on Friday,
of last week, and at once proceeded in their
interesting and hazardous mission. The leg
was taken ofrabout four inches below the
knee, and the usual restoratives given and
appliances made for the comfort and safety
—as far as possible—of the patient, who. at
last accounts, though not entirely out of dan
ger, was getting along very well; suppuration
and healing having nicely set in.
Dr. DeLapcrriere informed us that lie took
the affected leg home to his ofHce, and there
dissected it; and, as a result, found that
from the effects of the sprain, an ulceration
of the bones about the ankle and the two
lower bones of the knee had taken place—
the puss and matter forming around the ankle
and remaining there for so long a period,
being, as he thinks, the cause of this ulcera
tion. The bones also —the Dr. did not say
to what extent—had become soft and pliant,
something like a piece of cheese.
As before remarked, Mr. Lanier has been
a great sufferer; frequently, in fact most of
the time, for several years, unable to do any
work. But he resides in one of those good
neighborhoods for which Jackson is so justly
celebrated, and has had most of his wants
most carefully and sympathetically supplied
by kindneighbors and friends. And now,
that he is relieved of the cause of his suffer
ings, we sincerely hope he may have a spee
dy recovery.
The success of this operation will add an
other “ feather” to the “cap” of our young
friend Dr. TV. I*. DeLapcrriere, who. by his
untiring devotion to his patients, and the
readiness with which he accedes to their calls,
is fast becoming one of the most popular of
our county practitioners. Nor would we di
vest Dr. Hardeman, whom wc do not know,
personally, of one iota attached to him in the
premises. Viewing it from present stand
points, each gentleman is entitled to the
thanks of Mr. Lanier and his friends for the
success, so far, of the operation.

At the Office of the Sunny South,
To which we were courteously piloted by Col.
J. G. Tiikoavek, during our recent visit to
the “ Gate City,” in addition to a cordial
hand-shake with the enterprising and talent

the pleasure of seeing, for the first time, a

Col. Seals ; the number wc forget—but sev

is elsewhere mentioned, leaves seven children
and thirty grand-children, living. .She was,

the time of her death.
Dath of Mrs. Nancy Randolph.
It is with no common feeling of sadness,
that we chronicle the death of this estimable
lady—which occurred here, abont balf*past
five o’clock, Tuesday morning, the 13th hist.
As has been heretofore stated in these cot
umnSf she was troubled with a cancerous tti
mor, and was the subject of a snrgical opera
tion id March last. It was then hoped sbfe‘
would recover; but she has constantly been
confined to her bed ever since; and has,
doubtless, suffered as much pain as cter
fell to the lot of mortal to for the
same length of time < and we believe We haz
ard nothing in saying, also, that no one ever
exhibited more patience and fortitude through
out so long a period of intense bodily afflic*
tion. Mrs. IL has gradttally grown Weakef
for a month or two past from
ing frequent hemorrhages, and on Sunday last,
grew worse, and continued to suffer more and
more severely until she died.
Neither the constant and devoted atten
tion of her large and affectionate family of
children and grand children, nor the sugges
tions of skilled physicians could stay the
hand of death. She passed away at last—
calmly, peacefully—giving, on her death-bed,
as she had done previously—to her host of
weeping relatives and friends who stood
around her—unmistakable evidences of her
willingness to die and acceptance with
God—leaving behind her a consolation to the
bereaved both sweet and precious.
Mrs. R. was too well known in this com
munity and to a large number of our readers,
for us to attempt to say much with regard to
her virtues of head and heart. Her life is a
monument of her devotion to duty and the
various affairs of a large household. She was
born and reared in this county ; had lived in
Jefferson at the same place where she died,
lor about forty years—as wc are informed.
She was the consort and widow of the la
mented Joshua 11. Randolph, who preceded
her to the grave nearly seventeen years ; a
man whose praise has been on the lips of all
who knew him, and with whom wc have met
since our acquaintance in this county, and
doubtless, she was to him, indeed, “an help
meet.” She was, we are told, a member of
the Methodist church for a long period of
her life—perhaps all the time she lived in
Jefferson. Her kindness to relatives, friends
ami strangers (scores being entertained at
her house.) will ever be attested by them.—
Of course, she had faults ; who has not?—
Let them he forgotten by those who know
them, in the contemplation of her mariv good
traits, and let her numerous friends and rela
tives strive to emulate her virtues, and learn
wisdom bv her bright example in life, as a
clever, good woman.
A large number of her friends in town and
country, and her relatives, attended her fune
ral and followed her remains to their last
resting place in the cemetery, beside those of
her husband. The funeral services, by re
quest of the family, were conducted by Rev.
M. 11. K a ices, that good man of God, who is
so much revered l>y' our community. The
discourse was appropriate and
and it is hoped, will prove of lasting benefit
to the living who heard it.
The Amende Honorable
Is hereby tendered to Mr. J. O. Thrower from
‘One of the Council,’for referring to that phi
lanthropist as an employed lecturer. “Coun

his labor and time expended in the cause of
temperance ; nor would he consent to receive
any compensation. May God speed him in
his noble work ! Hut let him be discreet and
not drive his friends from him.
Hy referring to 22d Ga. Rep., 203, and 15th

Councils, according to our Supreme Court,
