Nine wagons lorning, bound for Tel- v from whence they emigrat- hree years ago to Florida. Editor Chores, of the Dawson Journal who is confined in the Fulton county jail for safe keeping, is not only in sane but is almost in a dying con dition. Cheves will hardly lire until the case against him is called in the Terrell superior court, unless something can be done for him. Several months ago The Constitution stated that Cheves was insane, and gave an account of his conduct, sub sequently, an account of his recovery was printed but it now appears that the recovery was not complete. For several weeks past Dr. Boring has found it absolutely necessary to pay Cheves two visits a day. His con stitution gave ways long ago and he began to show sign of disease soon, after he was jailed, but uboot tliree months ago his physical condition be came so wretched that the man found it almost impossible to move about in the jail. Dr. Boring, of coarse, finds it impossible to rebuild the man’s sestem confined as he is. When Cheves first confined in the Fnlton county jail, he was quiet and retiring in his disposition, and held himself aloof from the other prisoners. However, as ho became accustomed to the con finement and associations, he mingled with bis fellow prisoners and talked and read to them. He proved to be the same in jail as out of it-a kind hearted man, and divided his tobacco, postage stamps, paper, pen and ink, ., with the prisoners. About this °n U*t gg M a. y night u th.

As soon the accident had happened the fireman immediately stopped the engine and told what had happened to his engi neer, the conductor and a number of gentlemen went up the track for a number of yards and discovered a piece >*il about three feet in length, which fireman said he supposed was the :e of rail which inflicted the wound, was immediately brought to Ameri- *“ J >Jaced in the saloon at the de- l>r. J. B. Hinkle was sununon- to attend to his wound, and on ex amination his scull was found to be crushed in several places, portions of l he scull being buried in the brain, and causiog concussion of the brain, which rendered him unconscious. He was carried to his home in Macon < day morning on the 5:30 train. Mr. Thos. Gresham and a number of gentlemen was sent up to Stewart’s ling to find out whether the piece il had been broken from the track had been placed upon the track order to reck the train, on close investigation it was found that a broken piece of car coupling and the broken piece of rail did the work, and was placed npon the track for nothing more than to reck the train; for the piece of coupling showed evidently marks npon it where the flange of the wheels had struck it. It was picked up at Stewart’s crossing between the sidetrack. We hope the guilty party will be found and punish- A Hug* B.avsr.

Wes ton, grandson of A. A. Adams of thii city, that occurred on Monday the *2Gth. The remains were brought to Americus, on Tuesday afternoon and interred in Oak Grove Cemetery. Yesterday was a busy day, The fleecy staple camo in quite freely and the crisp greenbacks and shining sil ver was more plentiful than usual. Tho stores enjoyed a good trade nearly all day, and towards nightfall they were thronged. Tho busy season of 1883 has opened sure enough. Be Happy. considerable, i t moment. A r for life from having made o time he was quite a favorite with the prisoners, every one of whom liked him. This was six months ago. Soon after that, however, Cheves began to change. . He grew surly and disagreeable and would avoid all those around him. Finally he began to abuse those who tried to be kind'to Lim and ultimately succeeded in driving every prisoner in the jail away from himjexcept Alex McGorr, a negro. Tuis boy it appears exercised a control over Cheves, and when he became abusive McGorr was the only person who could do anything with him. Dr. Boring observed this change, and at first thought Cheves was “acting a pa’i ’in order to sus tain a plea of insanity even when his trial came up. All during hi- confine ment up to tuis period he bad been ex tremely talkative and friendly with Dr. Boring. The prisoner watched for the doctor’s appearance every day and seemed greatly pleased when he enter ed the jail. He would meet tho doctor the door and take him by tho hand and the other morning his >r, who had treated him with vigorous emphasis a few evenings be- mmutes and went out with his pur chase, leaving the young clerk buried i nought. “Hello,” said the boss, dirtnrbiug ie, “what’s tho matter v ’ “ “Thinking t This is ao time to think. i dad, andj'greet him cordialey.

We wish you much success in your enterprise and hope your institution may long flourish. Boring became convinced that Cheves’s mind was giving way. He knew that his physical strength hud been greatly destroyed, and with a view to saving “ie man’s mind if possible, ho worked lergetically and succeeded partially. When Cheves first became a prison- • he was as fine a specimen of man, physieally, as ever walked, but the confinement and his trouble has preyed upon him that today he is n able to walk a dozen steps. He has gone down gradually until within the past week when he began to weaken jry rapidly On Friday last when Dr. Boring left him ho remarked to the turnkey at the jail: “Cheves can’t live thirtv-i At that time he was sinking rapidly. His mind was gone entirely. He was unable to move except when assisted by Mcgoor. His breathing was labor ed and irregular. On Saturday Dr. Boring found no change for better, on the contrary he found Cheves worse. Saturday night Mcgorr thought Cheves would die and watched eagerly for the day, On Sunday ho seemed some bet ter and yesterday he was decidedly stronger. Cheves attorneys, Judge Vason and Judge Hawkins are both in tho city and will probably try to devise some means to save the man’s life. The case is a knotty one, and puzzles the best legal talent in the state.. Cheves killed Colonel Pickett in Terrell county about a year ago. He was then brought *" Fulton for safe keeping. His trial, course, will take place in Terrell and is to the court of that county that is subiect. Af* — *-— the Fulton coui insane now his friends want him ex amined by a lunacy jury, that this must take place county before that ordinary. It that in order to have him tried writ of lunacy he must givebond to tho court for tho murder case. Then again it is claimed that a jury of lu nacy to try his condition cannot be found in Terrell county. Some of his friends were in Atlanta wanted him examined by Ordinary Calhoun, but it was ascertained that he had no juris diction in the case. Then the gover nor was approaohed and asked to ap point a special commission on lunacy to investigate the prisoner’s condition, but the Governor declined saying that the law gave him no such authority. This leaves the matter in just such shape that no one can tell what will be or ought to bo done to secure the prisoner’s relief. AT JUDGE HAWKINS Hawkins was asked last night what he was going to do. He answer- n^erreU All the lest of the day the clerk was absorbed in though*, and the boss bother him. Still They Linger. Many of our yards are still adorned with a variety of beautiful flowers, are blooming almost as profusely midsummer. The delicate climb- ines are ladened with their cherry blooms, the roses never were prettier, the dahlia, the tube rose, the canner buff and crimson, the lantanner all colors, the red salvia with the chrys- antliummum’s in all their glory is a beautiful combination to make a home bright and happy. Autamn still lin- in the lap of summer, g throng of ladies on our robed in their purple and white will verify. Our eyes wander out over the highways and see the world so bright and beautiful and so many blithe and gay that our soul wonders in mute as tonishment over the scenes and pleas ure of tho passers by, and we feel deep down in our hearts, and wonder again and again if it will ever be thus, or ' there a cloud of misfortune for them the dim future, only obscured by the present sunbeams of pleasure. The Happy IT*. The following complimentary notice young friends recently joined together in holy wedlock, we take from the Atlanta Constitution of Sunday: Quito a brilliant wedding occurred ; the Methodist church last Thursday evening, the 22d hist., it being the mar riage of Mr. E. L. Bell to Miss Elma Buchanan, Rev. A. B. Campbell per formed the ceremony. The bride is the eldest' daughter of Mr. and Mrs, A. J. Buchanan, and is remarkable for per sonal charms, dignity of character and maidenly modesty. The groom is son of Captain and Mrs. A. C. Bell, and a young man of sterling character and good business habits. After the cere- ny there was an elegant reception the palatial residence of Captain II, on Forest street. There were a host friends present. Just thirty-five years cover* the span of the two lives just joined together, the groom being nineteen and the bride less than seven teen. W. K. Wheatley and W. E. Hawkins came down from Mercer to act as attendants at the wedding. Weston Lodge. F. ft A. M., No. 80. Death has again entered the mystic circle and made captive our brother G. W. Davenport, who, enfeebled by disease and infirmities of age, became the contest of life, and - Jeath a cessation from its straggles and sufferings. G. W. Davenport was born in Hali te county, Virginia, and was at the tine of his departure about seventy- one years of age. Ho had been honor ed by his fellow-citizens of Webster county to an election to the office of Ordinary, which office he held with sat isfaction to hisconstitneney for sixteen years. _ As an officer, he was efficient, ns a citizen submissive, as a husband and father an ample provider, as a neighbor kind and obliging, and as a Mason an honored member, m all the relations of life he discharged its dnties faithfully and well. May wo not with Job enquire; is there not an appointed time to man on earth f Be it Resolved, That in the death of brother G. W. Davenport, the county of Webster has lost a valued citizen, his wife a kind husband, his children idulgent father, the community an imed neighbor, and Weston Lodge a worthy member. Resolved 2d, That we as Masons ex- tend^to the bereaved family our pro point them to lace for their sorrows. Resolved 3d, That as a token of our respect for our departed brother, each member of Weston Lodge wear the us ual badge of mourning for thirty days, and that the jewels of the Lodge be draped in mourning. Resolved 4th, That a page in the minute book of the Lodge be left blank copy thereof F. M. McLENDON, DAN DAVIS, Wii.H. MERCER, JAS P. WALKER, Committee. Love and Age. There is said to be no fool like an done. Not long ago, a rich and ven erable man. in one of the Middle States, who dyed his hair and affected youth ful manners, met a handsome, middle aged widow on the sunny side of 40 years, and married her. He did not inquire about her antecedents. She io doubt intent upon his money. At New Orleans, the old husband whe probably regretted his folly, was madt acquainted with an adventure of hi* wife, which he magnified into some thing monstrous. In that far off city he left her, with a small sup ply of money, and began divorce proceedings. The wife, who had no doubt become disgusted with her bargain also, after some very harrow ing experiences, instituted a cross suit, and finally carried the day. She has been awarded a lump sum of W0,000, and her former husband is required to pay costs amounting to $12,500. Neither party can marry during the lifetime of the other. The old mi thus put in guardianship against him self, and the young woman has at least the satisfaction of knowing (hat her venture was not altogether barren and unproductive. She has legal triumph, small fortune, and independence of monsters called men. Marriage is a sacred, necessary wholesome institution, when wisely and properly entered upon. Otherwise, what was meant for a blessing be comes a torment and a curse. The fondest hopes are never toS?-’ They are the hearts most cherished gold.

Since this idea has been created in tho minds of the people, and discussed, the truth of the matter has been revealed to still, small voice,” and we give the facts, so that the parents should not be misjudged as to their liberality. The mother of the bride gave her piano; the father gave her a beautiful bed-room set of furniture. The mother of the groom gave him a handsome parlor set, and the father gave him home. All this is as it should be, and was very commendable, and doubt- lass fully appreciated by the newly- wedded couple.
