HTYe Editor returned, on Tuesday last,
from the gay r eties and delights of the Press
Convention and excursions of last week. He
had intended writing up a sketch of his trip,
but his vision was so dazod by the transcend
dent loveliness of the ladies, the enrapturing
and bewildering beauty of Toccoa’s scenery,
the sumptuous fare at all the hotels and the
sublime grandeur of Lookout, as to render it
impossible for him to give an extended ac
count of it now. Suffice it to say, he went,
he saw and enjoyed, and now lie goes it blind.
tjF’Our community was thrown into gloom
last Saturday and Sunday by the extreme
illness and sudden death of little Gussie
Watson, daughter of our esteemed fellow
townsman, Dr. W. A. Watson, aged about
eight years. The child had measles, and
was thought by the doctor and family to be
getting along well, when she was taken sud
denly worse about eleven o’clock Saturday ;
could not be relieved with all the efforts of the
skill of her father and Dr. C. R. Giles, who
was called in. She died about eleven o’clock
at night, and was buried Sunday evening in
the Cemetery, beside her little brother, who
was laid away about a year since. Rev. Mr.
Haygood, by request, preached the funeral
at the Presbyterian church. Gussie was a
sprightly and promising child—beloved by
all who knew her. We tender our sincere
condolence to the bereaved parents and
friends, and trust that He who tempereth the
wind to the shorn lamb, will enable them to
endure their grief, aud that they may meet
the loved one in “the sweet bye and bye ”

Mr. Editor: —Thinking perhaps your lit

*******
One lovely May morning, as the glowing
sun announced the dawn of a beautiful day',
we left our dear “Owm Villa," bound for Au
gusta. Arriving at Harmony Grove bright
and early, we got aboard the “ plucky” North
eastern, and Athens is soon reached.
Not making connection with the Augusta
train, we were compelled to remain over all
day 7 , but spent the time most pleasantly in
viewing the Athenian attractions. We vis
ited the famous “ Lucy Cobb,” but found all
quiet, as tin? gay butterflies had also taken
flight for Augusta’s charms. As twilight
gently descended we slowly meandered, and
ere we reached the Georgia depot, found
night throwing her cool draperies around us.
Hastily procuring seats, we were soon off for
Augusta. But, before reaching Union Point,
the coaches were completely filled, as great
numbers came in from every station. At
Union Point several coaches had to be at
tached, for it seemed as if myriads had come
from Atlanta, en route to Georgia’s chief cm
porium.
As wc neared Augusta, gay landscapes pre
sented themselves to view, while majestic oaks
towered above our heads. Nature everywhere
was clothed in her new-wove robe ; and, from
appearances, it seemed that one hill was try*
ing to surpass another in loveliness. Our at
tention was soon diverted from this, and,
turning our eyes upward, we beheld Venus,
the lovely Queen Star, out on the Eastern
stage, claiming her right to a less brilliant,
but more enduring reign.
Augusta is reached about G.| o’clock A.M.,
and now everybody is in a rush. Street cars
rattle, machinery clatters, and the pavements
resound with the footsteps of the rushing
crowds. Augusta, fair as a dream, greeted
us with her gay charms. We were peculiarly
struck with her beautiful residences, and some
of them are magnificent. We must say that
Green street, in Augusta, is the most beauti
ful street we have ever seen. To a stranger,
a report these warm day's on Green street is
not only delightful, but perfectly soul-charm
ing.
We breakfasted at the Mansion House, and
spent the day in jubilant hopes of a trip to
Charleston. The excursion was to leave at
8 P. M., and as night approached we neared
the depot, and was welcomed by the sweet
strains of Augusta’s Cornet Band.
Procuring berths, and with congenial com
pany, we speedily found ourselves in high
glee for the trip. Banishing all cares, and
elated with the prospect of a pleasant visit to
South Carolina’s seaport green, we were soon
“castle building,” as the dashing train sped
us onward to the sea-coast. From Augusta
to Charleston is one boundless plain, with
but few places of interest along the route.
Down near the coast a dwelling is rarely' seen.
As we drifted seaward, we were peculiarly
struck with the vast plains, covered with a
carpet of green, interspersed with beautiful
ferns and delicate grasses, and graced by
towering pines draped with pendant moss.
As we sped onward, a bright-eyed magnolia
and the sweet eglantine would ever and anon
peep out from among the hedges. Large po
tato and strawberry plantations hove in sight
as we approached the suburbs of Charleston.
Charleston is reached about 64 o’clock A. M.,
and all is well. As soon as possible, wc di
rected our steps seaward. Passing for about
two miles through the main streets of Charles
ton, we at last arrived at Market wharf. We
for the first time beheld the boundless ex
panse of the ocean.
Fatigued with our trip, we sat down and
feasted our eyes on the beautiful vessels that
were anchored within the harbor. Our atten
tion was particularly called to a huge old ves
sel that was bound for England soon.
The steamboat ride was perfectly delight
ful. Due at 3P. M., the beautiful steamer
“Sappho” left Market wharf, laden with four
or fire hundred passengers. As we beheld
the
Ocean empress ride
Majestic on the wave,
leaving behind her a snowy white train a hun
dred yards in length, cur minds were filled,
with emotions of pleasure, and with thoughts
sublime, too difficult to find description.
After sailing around Forts Moultrie and
Sumter, Morris and Sullivan’s Islands, we
landed at Market wharf, delighted with our
flight on the “ Sappho.” As the gorgeous sun
retreated beneath the crimsoning West, we
gave the parting look to Atlantic’s proud wa
ters, and are speedily on our way to the de
pot. We bid adieu to Charleston amid the
silence of night, and with the moon as a sil
ver crescent to illuminate our pathway, we
found ourselves, in higher glee than ever,
“ homeward bound.” Nearing our dear old
“ Georgia,” my thoughts gave vent to the fol
lowing :
“ Great Empire of the Sunny South,
Thy wanderer greets thee from afar ;
Thy praise is ever in my mouth;
Upon our flag our brightest star.
May thy sun rays beam ever bright,
Thus will I pray where'er I roam ;
May no fell discord quench thy light.
Land of my birth, my youth's’ loved home.”
Making connection with the Augusta and
Northeastern trains, we arrived at Harmony
Grove on Friday evening, May 10th, and
with pleasant memories that will follow us as
long as life lasts, we returned to our country
home.
Returning many thanks for your valuable
space, and hoping your little Forest may con
tinue to flourish, I bid yon adieu for this time.

Murdered by His Wife.
Lynchburg, Va., April 29.—Intelligence
was recei/ed here to-day of the murder, by
j his wife, of Capt. Lucius Travers, a wealthy
gentleman of Carroll county, Va., aged 70
years. Capt. Travers was one of the best
known old gentlemen in this part of the State.
The couple were married about eight
months ago, and it was known that it was
not a love match. Indeed, now, some of Mrs.
Travers’ friends recall the fact that she had
playfully remarked before her marriage, “ I
will break the old man down in six months
and have his fortune all to myself.” She was
a dashing and beautiful woman when he
married her, and is about 22 years old. On
Saturday the old fellow remonstrated witli
her for her freedom with a gay' young Balti
more swell, a former lover of hers, who had
come to this section of country' to drum for
his house. High words passed between hus
band and wife. At 12 o’clock the couple
retired, seeming to be in no better humor
than before that night. At about 1 o’clock
the wife of but a few months rose noiselessly
from the bed and went into the dining room,
where she secured a large carving knife. She
then deliberately gashed her husband’s throat
from ear to ear.
Being a woman of powerful physique, she
took the body of her husband upon her shoul
ders, and threw it into the creek which ran
through the yard. She then, as the testimony
of the chambermaid before the Coroner's jury
shows, buried the bed clothing and her robe
de cliambre, in order to conceal the evidence
of her crime. She put the knife up the cliim
ney, where it was found yesterday. The
body of Capt. Travers was found in the creek
on Sunday morning by two fishermen. Mrs.
Travers was arrested upon suspicion of hav
ing committed the murder. The body' was
traced from the parlor door of the Louse to
the creek by the clots of blood upon the
grass. At the Coroners inquest to-day Mrs.
Travers stoutly denied the crime, and said
that her husband had left the bedroom at 12
o’clock in the night, and that he never re
turned. Just as the jury were about to agree
upon a verdict that the deceased came to his
death by being murdered by someone un
known to them, the guilty' wife burst out into
a fit of crying, and acknowledged that she
committed the fearful deed. She was taken
to the county jail, and while there attempted
to commit suicide by stabbing herself in the
breast with a pair of scissors. Intense ex
citement prevails in the community, for Capt.
Travers was a very popular man, an ex-Jack
son Presidential elector, and a cultivated
gentleman. Travers was worth at least

The Lee Statue—Appointments of the Geor
gia Commissioners.
At the last session of the Virginia Legisla
ture the Lee Monumental Association was
incorporated. It is the object of this Asso
ciation to erect in Richmond a superb eques
trian statue of General Lee, and the Govern
or of each State which has contributed to the
fund, has a right to appoint three commis
sioners to select a sculptor for the work.
Georgia has contributed about S6OO to the
fund, and accordingly Governor Colquitt has
appointed as commissioners from this State
the following gentlemen, who are well fitted
to perform the delicate duty required of them :
General A. R. Lawton of Savannah. General
VV. S. Walker of Atlanta, Colonel C. C. Jones,
Jr., of Augusta; Colonel J. M. Russell of
Columbus, is the State Agent of the Associa
tion, and any subscriptions may be forward
ed to him. It seems that Georgia ought to
give much more than S6OO in this noble ob
ject.

The Antecedents of Disease.
Among the antecedents of disease are inertness
in the circulation of the blood, an unnaturally at
tenuated condition of the physique, indicating that
the life current is deficient in nutritive properties,
a wan, haggard look, inability to digest the food,
loss of appetite, sleep and strength, and a sensa
tion of unnatural languor. All these may he re
garded as among the indicia of approaching dis
ease, which will eventually attack the system and
overwhelm it, if it is not built up and fortified in
advance. Invigorate, then, without Toss of trmc,-
