A vellow rabbit has been slain in Baldwin

A lady near Irwinton gave birth to three
children, and eleven months after two more.
The State College lectures for the benefit
of the citizens of Athens will be resumed next

A lady in Mount Sterling, Ky., eighteen

There is a man in Crawford county who '
might be sent at once to the Paris Exposition.
He has never drank a glass of whisky, smok

Nathan Mucker, and old negro man in

A negro man was bitten by a highland
moccasin near Greensboro last week, and
walked all the way to town for an antidote.
He decided on whisky, of which he drank
about a quart, and after hr got sober he felt
pretty well.
Some conscienceless scoundrels,persuaded
a lady, over seventy years old, who was trav
elling alone from Chicago to San Francisco,
to exchange her money, SIOO in greenbacks,
for counterfeit coin, and she arrived at
Omaha penniless and almost heart broken.
Some <of the Chicago papers say the re
cent stories in regard to threatened Commu
nistic troubles are nothing more than a de
vice on the part of the police and detective
force to frighten the authorities of that city
into raising their wages, or at least into pay
ing them.
Montgomery county must be a sort of par
adise for sportsmen. The Telfair South Geor
gian states that. Mr. Matthew Browning, of
said county, caught in the Oconee river, last
week, two catfish, one of which weighed sixty
and the other eighty pounds net. He also
killed a wild turkey which, when dressed,
weighed twenty pounds.
An outbreak by an elephant is regarded by
circus managers as an excellent advertise
ment; but probably Old John Robinson’s
show will pay more this year for that kind of
advertising than it is worth. Already the
Robinson elephant has killed two persons,
and a suit for $5,000 damages has been com
menced in each ease.
Bismark is the recipient of numerous gifts
on his birthday from all parts of Germany.

An awful destructive tornado visited the
neighborhood of Sieux City, lowa, on Sun
day afternoon. Trees were uprooted, and
houses lifted from foundations and dashed,
to pieces, and several lives were lost and a
large number of people injured. In several
cases persons wero carried away by the wind,
and dropped down again without injury.
A Newton county man having lost a horse
recently, recalled to mind Sut Lovegood’s
story of “ How Dad l’layed IIoss.” So he
hitched himself to a plough and made a boy
drive him. In this way he ploughed out two
acres of corn in two hours. All who feel in
clined to doubt this story are respectfully
referred to the Covington Enterprise.
We notice that the extensive improvements
at Sulphur Springs, Hall count}', are rapidly
approaching completion. Already three hun
dred and sixty thousand feet of lumber have
been consumed in the new biddings recently
erected. The new furniture is now being re
ceived and put in place, so that by the mid
dle of May everything will be in readiness for
the reception of visitors.
A South Bend, Ind., lad, ten or eleven years
of age, boasted that he could make the switch
engine that was coming towards them stop.
FI is bet was taken, and he steped on the
track in front of the engine and commenced
looking down the track. The engineer whis
tled, rang the bell, and finally stopped the
engine within about two feet of the young
scamp. The boy was kicked off the track by
one of the train hands.
Quite a little excitement was occasioned
in Macon on Saturday, by the report that
someone had robbed the corner stone of the
Confederate monument, laid on Memorial day.
It turned out, however, that the box contain
ing the mementoes had only been taken from
Mie stone temporarily by one of the commit
tee in charge, for safe keeping. Until this
was discovered, however, the miscreant “who
would rob a corner stone,” received a great
many uncomplimentary remarks.
A peculiar fly has made its appearance in
Oconee county which, it is feared, will prove
quite damaging to the crops. It is very pe
culiar looking and somewhat resembles the
common house fly. It attacks the blooms,
and, introducing its bill into the bloom, by a
nervous or fluttering motion, soon succeeds
in dislodging it, and then it immediately pro
ceeds down the stalk to the next bloom, and
so on until it has attacked and dislodged
s every one.
Editor Absent.
R. S. Howard, Esq., editor of this paper, is
absent this week, in attendance upon the
Eress Convention at Gainesville, which will
account for any short comings in this issue
that may be apparent to our readers —the
duties of editor devolving on the senior Busi
ness Manager, who is but an inexperienced
novice in editorial labor.

Democratic Executive Committee.
We published last week the call of Major
Ilockenhuli, Chairman of Executive Com
mittee for the Ninth Congressional District,
but, owing to the lateness of the hour of its
arrival, we could not call special attention to
it. Wc consider this action opportune and
important to the political well-being of the
District. Asa public journalist, having the
public weal at heart, we desire to urge the
various members of the Committee, repre
senting all the counties in the District, to be
present at the proposed meeting, and let
there be a free and full interchange of views
among the members, so that the subsequent
action of the Democracy may, as it should,
result in a fair nomination of a standard
bearer in the approaching canvass for Con
gress. Let this be accomplished, and the
election in the grand old Ninth, we doubt
not, will send a Representative man to Con
gress and shed new lustre upon the escutch
eon of the party.

Mr. Hayes and the Electoral Frauds.
According to the Washington correspon
dent of the Baltimore Sun, it appears that
among Democratic Congressmen there is
some opposition to extreme measures against
I Layes, owing, possibly, to personal dislike of
Mr. Tilden, and an unwillingness that he
should be benofittod. Wo have but little
doubt tint there will be an investigation, but
it will most likely be directed with a. view to
the future interest of the Democratic party,
rather than to displacing Hayes.
Wc have no special concern about Hayes’
displacement. We are not responsible, as a
party, for him. He will likely keep his own
party divided, while ours will be united to
defeat and overwhelm fraud next time.
Georgia Baptist Convention.
The next annual session of the Georgia
State Baptist Convention will be held in Co
lumbus, embracing the 4th Sabbath in April.
1871). The writer had the pleasure of attend
ing the recent session of the Convention in
LaGrange, which was a very interesting and
profitable meeting. The royal entertainment
given the Convention by the refined and hos
pitable people of the lovely and picturesque
town will never be forgotten. The musical |
concert, given by the young ladies of Prof.
Cox’s most excellent Baptist Female College, I
was simply grand and cannot be surpassed.
The visitors were charmed—delighted. The ■
new College Chapel, just finished, is a splen- j
did building. LaGrange offers many supc-;
rior facilities for female education, there be- <
ing another College there under the manage
ment of the Methodists.
Everybody visited the enchanting flower j
garden of Mrs. Ferrill, which, perhaps, excells 1
anything of the kind to be found in this part i
of the country.
Refunding the National Debt.
5\ e have received a copy of the speech of
Hon. Hiram P. Bell on the refunding of the
national debt and the necessity of establish-!
ing postal savings banks. An abler or more
exhaustive argument has not been made in |
Congress on this subject. Mr. Bell shows
conclusively that if our national debt could
be held by our own people—which is one of
the objects proposed by the bill lie was advo
cating—and the interest thereon paid within
our own borders, it would constitute one of
the elements of national wealth. Mr. Bell is
master of his subject, and his speech will well
repay perusal.— Atlanta Constitution.
We cordially endorse the above, and be
speak a careful reading of the document in
question, by our readers.

Ben Taylor, a colored man living in this
place, has lately returned from Washington,
whither he has been to secure a patent for a
new steam engine which he has invented,
and which, if tfie judgment of many experi
enced and scientific men to whom he has
shown his model is correct, is calculated to
revolutionize f the present application of
steam. Ben Taylor, the present inventor, is
a sort of mechanicaN genius, having before
manifested an insight Nnto mechanics of no
ordinary degree. His invention, if nothing
fails—and the probabilities are in his favor—
will rank him among the first inventors of

Washington, May 6. —The Senate and
galleries were jammed to-day to hear Sena
tor Gordon’s great speech on the repeal of
the resumption act. Leading Senators pro
nounce it the finest speech delivered iu that
chamber for many years. In spite of the
efforts of the Sergeant-at-Arms to keep order,
rounds of applause greeted the Senator,
throughout his whole effort. It is the gen
eral topic of conversation to-night, and has
created a profound impression.

To the Citizens of Jackson Cos.
I RESPECTFULLY submit a few facts for your
kind consideration, and should you be in need
of a Carriage, Buggy or pleasure wagon, it will
give me pleasure to show you my stock now on
hand and daily arriving.
I am a practical mechanic, but not any better
than 10,000 others. The work I sell is manufac
tured partly by Southern mechanics. All work
sold with a guarantee, is backed by men of means
ami not of gas. The blacksmith’s work is all done
substantial, and no new-fangled ideas about it.
nor is there any parts steel-plated, to catch the
un weary. Ihe wood work is made by experi
enced men, that work for a living, and do not
waste their time in growling about sustaining
home enterprises. The painting is done in a neat,
substantial manner—more for durability than
show. The trimming is done by men of common
sense.
The manufacturer has hcen in business twenty
seven years, and has manufactured and sold over
30,000 vehicles, and pays for ever}' article he buvs.
and pays his hands every dollar they earn. And,
by strict attention to business and manufacturing]
I can assure you that I can sell as good a carriage
or buggy as any made in Georgia for 40 per cent,
less than any other house.
Do not listen to prejudiced competitors, who re
sort to other than fair means to sell their work,
but come and examine for yourselves, and I will
make good what I say. Meat is now 6sc. per lb.,
corn 50c. per bushel, and carriages and buggies
must be sold in proportion. I have sold twenty
six in the last seven weeks in Gainesville.
