Hold Up! Mr. Sheriff.
Among the many excitements of last week
was the hanging that was to be. If there is
anything the people of Georgia like to see, i;
is a hanging. It has a peculiar charm fer
them, and they will come miles to see one ff
their fellow-mortals launched into eternity at
the end of a rope.
To say that Jefferson was full last Friday
is putting it in the mildest language possible,
and places us away within the bound* of
truth. Early in the morning the crowd com
menced moving in from every quarter of the
globe. By eleven o’clock the streets were
full, and remained so all day long. Large
crowds turned back when they heard that the
hanging would not take place, but it is safe
to say that the largest part of the crowd re
mained all day.
Taking into consideration the large num
ber of people here, and the quantity of liquor
they drank, it was the most orderly crowd
that has been to Jefferson in some time.
The messenger of the Governor arrived on
Thursday night with a respite. The follow
ing is a copy of the order f
Executive Department, Y
State ok Georgia, V
Atlanta, Ga., October 7th, 1880. )
To the Sheriff o f Jackson County:
Whereas, At the August Term, 1880, of
the Superior Court of Jackson county, John
B. Arthur was convicted of the offense of
murder, and was adjudged therefor to be ex
ecuted on Friday, the Bth day of October in
stant; and
WiiEreas, It is now claimed that the said
Arthur is, and was at the time of the com
mission of said offense, of such weak and un
sound mind as to render him morally irre
sponsible for his actions, and, therefore,
legally incompetent to commit crime, and
application having been made to me by a
number of respectable citizens of said county,
for a short respite of the execution of said
sentence, in order that opportunity may be
given to inquire into of said Arthur;
and
Whereas, The public interest will not
suffer injury by the granting of said applica
tion ; it is, therefore,
Ordered, That the execution of said sen
tence, so adjudged against the said John B.
Arthur, be respited and postponed until Fri
day, the 29th day of October instant, on
which last mentioned day, between the hours
of ten o’clock A. M. and four o’clock P. M.,
unless otherwise legally directed, you will do
execution upon the body of the said John B.
Arthur, in accordance with the judgment of
the Court rendered in said case.
Herein fail not!
Given under my hand and the seal of the
Executive Department, at the Capitol,
in Atlanta, the day and year first above
written.
Alfred 11. Colquitt, Governor.
By the Governor :
J. W. Warren, Sec’y Ex. Dep’t.
What efforts are being made in this direc
tion we arc not able to say at present, but
will certainly have something definite by next
week.
The Railroad Progresses.
Capt. Ira Sage and corps were at Ilenrv
Gilbert's on Thursday, locating the road, and
at the time we go to press, they are doubtless
within four or five miles of Jefferson. We
understand that Capt. Sage, the Engineer, is
highly pleased with the route, and we have
no doubt it will be found to be the best line
that could have been selected.
Judge Howard is busy collecting the as
sessments on the stock. Let the work pro
ceed with all possible speed, and in order to
do this, let all the stockholders pay up
promptly, and thus insure the speedy com
pletion of the road.
Both the contracting companies are ex
pected to break dirt next Monday. They
have been building shanties this week and
getting ready to go to work in earnest, as we
are informed.
How Watches are Made-
It will be apparent to any one, who will
examine a SOLID GOLD WATCH, that
aside from the necessary thickness for en
graving and polishing, a large proportion of
the precious metal used, is needed only to
stiffen and hold the engraved portions in
place, and supply the necessary solidity and
strength. The surplus gold is actually need
less so far as utility and beauty are con
cerned. IN JAMES BOSS’ PATENT
GOLD WATCH CASES, this waste of pre
cious metal is overcome, and the same so
lidity and strength produced at from one
third to one-half of the usual* cost of solid
cases. This process is of the most simple
nature, as follows : a plate of nickle compo
sition metal, especially adapted to the pur
pose, has two plates of solid gold soldered
Olio on each side. The three are then passed
between potisireu mcci umvio, aim ~
suit is a strip of heavy plated composition,
from which the cases, backs, centres, bevels.
&c., are cut and shaped by suitable dies and
formers. The gold in these cases is sutli
ciently thick to admit of all kinds of chasing,
engraving and enamelling; the engraved
cases have been carried until worn perfectly
smooth by time and use without removing
the gold.
THIS IS THE ONLY CASE MADE
WITH TWO PLAtES OF SOLID GOLD
AND WARRANTED BY SPECIAL CER
TIFICATE.

My blood and kidneys are all right, and I am

My dear young friends, a journey long
You’ve started now together,
And Fancy sings a pleasant song
Of love to one another.
She paints a scene of future joy,
And strews your path with Uowers ;
She speaks of bliss without alloy,
Of peace and sunny hours.
And'all is true that Fancy tells,
If you but rightiy take it;
Misfortune dies or with you dwells,
Your life is what you make it.
Y ou'll meet with many kinds of friends,
And some, l hope, that's true ;
But you must look to self for this,
I’m sure your friends will do.
I hope you'll always happy be,
While on this earth you're dwellin’;
So now I'll say good-bye ! J. E.,
Farewell ! to Mary Ellen.

Gone Home to Rest.
Died, on the 4th day of October, ISSO, Father
Ezekiel Boggs, in his sixty-eighth year. He pass
ed off from all his cares and toils of earth. He
had long been a member of the Methodist church ;
was a faithful worker for the cause of Christ and
for the prosperity of Zion. He has earnestly la
bored in the vinyard of the Lord several years
past as exhorter, as class leader and as Sunday
school Superintendent, and it appeared to be his
chief concern to Ibok after the prosperity of his
church. He delighted to dwell with his brethren
in peace and harmony, with a Christian spirit fill
ed with love. In the family lie was a kind hus
band, a gracious father ; loved and honored by his
companion and adored by his children. He has
left many relatives and friends to mourn his loss.
Dear father was sick only a few days. Said that
he would never be up again. Declared his inten
tion to meet God in Heaven. Said that he had no
fears as to eternity ; that the Lord Almighty, who
is able and willing to save, was with him in his
affliction, and about the last words, which could
be understood, he said that he was ready, yes,
more than ready. Blessed be the Lord for such
faith ; blessed be His holy name for such pure
and undefiled religion which he giveth to man ;
which will permit him to lie down and sleep
sweetly in the hour of death, and then cross over
Jordan and drop gently, yes, very sweetly, into
the arms of Jesus, and be forever at rest, where
we can have a crown of glory and hear sweet
music in songs of praise to God, by the beautiful
and shining angels, as they dwell in realms of
glory in Paradise above, where all is love.
O'er life's anxious dream—
O’er its patient toil,
He has crossed the dark, cold stream,
And rests from care and toil.
For many a year he fought—
Fought the good fight of faith ;
Ilis Saviour —his dearest thoughts—
Ilis precious Saviour, Jesus, love.
Ila diod with his armor on,
A soldier at his post;
He died with the victory won,
And now the battle cannot be lost.
I think I hear the cry,
From all that angel band,
A crown we hold for thee on high,
Come to that better land.
We stay the swelling tear,
We crush the rising sigh ;
chide each traitorous fear,
And lift the timid eye,
And see our father stand
Close by the great white throne ;
And list! well pleased the glorious cry,
Well done ! well done ! well done !
We shall not meet him here—
We shall not see his face ;
But faith reveals him there,
In all his shining grace.
Soldier of Christ, well done !
To thee sweet rest is given ;
To thee a bright and shining crown,
An an heritage in Heaven.
Says the Americus Recorder: “We heard
yesterda} r of a very unfortunate occurrence
which happened in Andersonville on Satur
day, the 18th inst. Mr. John Smith, who, it
seems, was somewhat in liquor, drew his pis
tol and fired two shots at a hog, which en
dangered the lives of several persons near.
He next went into a store and had some
words with a negro, upon whom he drew his
pistol and fired one shot, the ball making a
slight wound in the negro’s hand. The ne
gro then snatched the pistol from Mr. Smith
and began firing upon him, and continued
until all the chambers were emptv. Two balls
took effect, one slightly, the other making a
serious wound in the back.”
Barncsville Gazette : “There was a mar
riage in Pike county last Saturday that had
something of interest about it. Certainly
there are some novel features connected with
in that have not accompanied an)' connubial
union in Georgia. The groom, Ben Howell,
a colored sojourner at Pike’s poor farm near
Zebulon, is one hundred and ten years years
of age. in accordance with the best informa
tion as to when he first visited this conti
nent. llis ebony bride, Jane West, has
smiled through forty summers, and Saturday
made Ben, with the burden of so many years,
jump up and pop his heels together after
the manner of * Old Jim Crow/ and assert
* happy ! happy !’ in the presence of Rev.
Wade Alexander, who tied the blissful knot,
and the few friends who had gathered to wit
ness the hallowed ceremony. The bride is
also a beneficiary of the poor farm, and the
happy old children will pass their honey moon
and declining years in love, ease and the com
forts of a rural home, provided by the char
ity of this ccunty.”
The Athens Banner reports that many
years ago Athens had a law forbidding the
sale of liquors in quantities less than a quart.
Whenever a man came along and bought a
quart he could not, of course, drink it all ;
so the bar-keeper would go to the door and
blow a blast on a cow horn and the loafers
all around town would hasten to help the
purchaser dispose of his quart. When, by
any chance, a gallon was purchased, the bar
keeper would blow a ram’s horn, and the
boys would say to each other, “No use to
hurry now ; lie's got a gallon.” “ Such,”
says the Banner , “ were the good old times.”
