TO SUBSCRIBERS.
We have been sending our
paper to the old Banner sub
scribers as specimen copies.
We will be glad for all the
former subscribers to continue
their names on our list. We
made no arrangement with
Mr, Atkinson to carry out his
contracts, and therefore we
have nothing to do with past
contracts. We intend to do
our best to make the North
east Georgian a first-class
paper in every respect. If
persons to whom it is address
ed continue to take it from the
Post Office, of course we con
sider them subscribers.
We return our bear-felt
thanks to our friends who so
actively assisted us in our new
enterprise, and who have al
ready swollen our subscription
list to almost double the for
mer circulation of the paper.
FIFTH NOVEMBER.
Let every ouc remember this day.
Let Georgia do her duty fuitbfully and
fearlessly. Let oir colored friends
come forward and give a strong vote
for Greeley. They will never regret
it. Let usnll work togetheras friends.

A DUEL AND ITS RESULTS.
One man seriously if not mortslly
•wounded.—The Duel fought near the
Cemetery.—Two of our cotemporcries,
published a card from Mr. Wallcacc
Haskell relative to a misunderstand
ing between himself and Mr. Houston
Force. As the people are generally
acquainted with the facts as stated in
that card, we will not reiterate them.
Yesterday evening, the town was
startled by the minor that a duel had
been fought by Mr. Houston Force
with Mr. J. Harvey Townsend, near
the cemetery, with shot-guns.
The rumor proved to be too true.
The parties left them in front of the
National Hotel yesterday evening and
proceed to a little grove in front of
the main entrance to the city eemc-
tcry on Fair street. Here the duel
occurred with shot-guns at forty yards,
between sunset and dark. It is ru
mored that Mr. Force tired a few sec
onds after the word was given, and
before Mr. Townsend had turned. Mr.
Townsend did not fire in the direction
of Mr. Force. Two buckshot took
•effect in the left elbow and one shot in
itlie back under the shoulder blade.

A’tcaiiled the unfortunate man. Two
shot and a number of pieces of lone
were extracted from the shattered
Arm, and the arm resected. The
wound in the hack was probed to tht
depth of four or live inches without
detecting the hall. It is uncertain
whether the hall entered the chest or
lodged under the shoulder blade. Mr.
Towndsend is in a critical condition.
A warrant has been issued for the ar
rest of Mr. Force, hut up to twelve
o’clock he had not been found.
The duel seems to have grown out
of a previous difficulty lx:teen Mr.

became involved.
The Atlanta b'un, of Sunday mor
ning, says:
It is stated, upon good authority,
that the warrant for Mr, Faroe’s
arrest was not issued at the instance of
Mr. Townsend or any of his family.
The family indeed regret it.
At a lute hour last oveuiug Mr.
Townsend was still improving, with a
fa’r prefect 1 p cove* ,
Mr. Force was still at large, all ef
forts to arrest him having proved fu

Vouchers and other papers have

Gen. Francis S. Bartow, was one of
the three new teachers recently elected

The Griffin Star ha^ understood that
Judge Green, the Radical candidate
for Congress in theoldFourth District,

Kinchen Massey formely a citizen
of this county, was arrested by the
United States Marshall and taken to

From the Griffin Star we learn that
the construction of the Savannah,
Griffin and North Alabama railroad is
progressing rapidly and the cars will
run across the Chattahoochee river in
a few days. There is a had cut in the
edge of Carroll which will create some
delay, after which construction will
proceed vigorously.
A drunken negro at Wooten station,

An Atlanta lady was seized by both
arms and violently shaken for a few
moments the other evening, as she en
tered a room to light the lamp. No
violence was offered her, and the
whole affiiir borders on the myste

J. J. Simmons, the party who
stabbed Mr. Besore iu the neck in
Macon recently, attempted to committ
suicide on Monday, by taking lauda
num. He was in a critical condition
at last accounts.
The Griffin Xeics publishes a special
dispatch from Atlanta, dated the 19th,
in which it is stated that Mr. J. H.
Townsend, who was wounded in the

of the unfortunate man remains the
same.
