It was twenty-two years ago and San l 1 rancisco was in her infancy. Quite a crowd had gathered on the street, and the center of attraction was a big tellow who stood with a newspaper in his hand, raving and cursing. What’s the matter, Wolf? asked a new comer who was evidently fawilia” with the irate man. ‘Matter?’ returned Wolf, for that was his name. ‘Matter enough, and rough enough it’ll be for some folks. Them young whelps that prints this paper has gone and published some thin’ ’bout me. Oh, I’ll fix ’em. They had better never had been born. They had better go and kill themselves after ten minutes; it 11 be an easier death for ’em. Wolf was a noted desperado, who, it was said, had killed more than twen ty men, and but few knew him who did not fear him. lie was at that time chief of a gang of loafers and gam blers that were nearly always to bo found belonging to the vicinity allu ded to, and disturbing the .peace of the whole neighborhood daily with riotous conduct. If there was any law in those days it was seldom executed against such characters, and, in the full consciousness that they were fear ed, they did pretty much as they pleas ed. The newspaper which had given deadly offence to Wolf, was a little weekly journal, and its office was in the second story of a building on the same street witli the hotel I have men tioned, and only a tew rods distance. It was published by two young men— or, I might say, boys, for they were only eighteen and twenty years respectively named Darrell and Knayes, The paper and its youthful proprietors were already known in the city of San Francisco. The article which had excited the wrath of the ruffian, Wolf was a bold denunciation of himself and his crowd for their lawless conduct and it par ticularly mentioned him by name, characterizing him as a ‘blustering bully.’ It was the work of young Darrell, a fearless boy hailing from ope of the western States. Before leaving his home in the Mississiopi Valley he had acquired a fair educas tion, so that he could edit a newspa per in those early days; and ho pos sessed besides that, courage and dars ing which may be natural in the first place, and which are more thoroughly developed by exposure to dangers and hardships. Y r oung Knayes was quite a different kind of person in point of courage, being of an unusual ly timorous nature. To return to the scene on Sacra mento street. Working himself up into his very worst mood—and his best was bad enough, Heaven knows —Wolf tore the paper to atoms and slarted for the publication office.— He was followed by a curious rabble, most of whom were elated with the prospect ot a murder, though there were some present who would have remonstrated with the evilhearted man had they dared. ‘Jest you watch,’said Wolf as he reached the door, ‘if you want to see their bloody carcasses tumble out ’o the window 1 It won't bo long. I don’t spend much time on sich fel lows. It was the intention of the cruel hearted man actually to cut the throats of the two boyish journalists and throw their bodies out of the win dow, for the gratification of the crowd and the further exaltation of his al ready fearful name. So the mob on the street awaited the issue with fe verish expectation, as Wolf, flourish ing his knife and revolver, entered the rude frame building and rushed up stairs. All unconscious of their danger, the two young editors were busy pnrstil ing the usual their primitive office. If they had heard the noise without, they had paid no attention to it, supposing it was merely a stieet row, such as they were accustomed to hearing every day. Derrell was sit ting at a rude table writing, and Knayes was at the counter arranging some papers for the mail. They heard the clatter of heavy boots on the stairs, but supposed it was sonio rough miner coming op to subscribe for the paper, or, perhaps to see a lawyer who occupied a couple of rooms on the same floor; for the build ing waR only a two story one, and the second floor was occupied by them and an attorney, their rooms being separated from his by a narrow balls way that reached was by the flight of stairs alluded to. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING. JANUARY 26, 1877. ‘Alisha 1 I’ve got ye, my young imps!’ exclaimed the desperado bursts ing in. Knayes recognized him and turned pale. Being at the counter which fao ed the door and extended across the room, he was naturally the first mark for Wolfs vengeance. ‘Ye young devils!’ he hissed, scowls ing like a madman. Ye’ll never write nor print nothin’ more ’bout me ! Ilere he flourished his knife and re volver above his head. I’ve got a sure thing on both of you. Saying this, ho looked above him with a care ful scrutiny, to see that there was no means of escape for the quiet youth at the table, who, of course, would not dare to jump over the counter and try lo pass him but would cower down in a corner and take his turn at being killed; then he reached across the counter and seized Knayes by the hair, which was, unfortunately, very long. Coiling the terrified young man’s locks around the great coarse fingers ot the left hand, Wolf laid his revols ver upon the counter without the slightest apprehension that his youth ful adversary would snatch it up and use it on him, as ho might have done had ho possessed the nerve, then flourished his big gleam knife deliber ately, with pure devilishness prolong ing Knayes’ terror and pain. Now pray, you young ’un ! he hiss ed. You ve got a couple ’o seconds or so to left—jest while I’m clipping yer ears off. I’ll take ’em off firs 1 ,, clean and smooth, and, then I’ll cut yer throat and throw yer out of the winder. D’ye hear that? Such was Wolfs reliance on the terror he everywhere inspired, that he never dreamed of resistance. He sim ply intended to butcher the two young men, and such a thing as an obstacle to Ids will was not to be thought of Had Darrell possessed no more nerve than Knayes; there can bo no doubt that they both would have been murdered then and there in ex* aot accordance with Wolfs pro gramme. ‘l ime’ he said, grinding his teeth in exstaoy ot rage and drawing Kuayes’white face closerto his own re pulsive countenance. They are wait ing <o see yer carcass drap down into the street. Here he flourished hia knife and selected his mark. Right ear first. Watch how clean an’ smooth I’ll lake it off. I will not even touch a hair, Knayes bawled for mercy. O—O don’t! the poor fellow shriek ed, trembling with terror. O don t Mr. Wolf! I didn’t write that on my soul 1 and he whined like a schools boy. None ot yer lying ! said Wolf fiereo ly. Yer both wrote it, darn yo ! and both of ye’ll pay for it. Here he ex ecuted decided circles with his flash ing knife, having prolonged the tor ture as much as he desired. Here goes, look out when I count three l The knife was ready to descond. One two— Ho stopped and staited. lie had not observed the movements of Dar rell during the last few seconds, and just as he was on the poiut of clip ping ofl Knayes’ ear in the polished manner he had decanted upon, he found the muzzle of a rifio thrust als most into his face. It was a loaded rifle, which, lucki ly, a friend of Darrell’s had left in his keeping that very morning, while he went out to make some purchases.— It had stood in a corner ot the room near his table, and Darrell had seized it, cocked and leveled it with such dexterity that he had Wolf covered before his movements were observed; and he stood motionless as a statute, his cool eye glancing over the sights and a steady finger on the trig ger. ‘I ou great bully,’ he said ‘drop that knife instantly. Mind, I came from a country where they shoot squirrels only through the eye. I can hit any hair of your big head that you will mention at a huudi ed yards. Drop that knife.’ The ruffian was fairly paralyzed.— He relaxed his grip on poor Knayes, who sank on the floo’\ and his mur derous knife fell upon the counter.— So unexpected was this bold attitude of Dan-ell, that Wolf was more star tled than he would have been if a dozen of the toughest men in Califor* nia bad assailed him. There stood the boyish editor mo tionless as the wall, and the muzzle of the rifle did not move a hair. Dar rell held Ike desperadoes life in his hands. ‘You cowardly bully’ he repeated contemptuously. ‘Don’t you dale to move; l ean scud a bullet through your eye ball without touching the white. Don’t move the eighth of an inch, or I’ll do it and throw your fil thy carcass out of the window. Wolf glanced at his revolver, lying upon the counter within two feet of his eye, but he did not venture to touch it. Dare to touch that revolver—so much as look at it again, said Darrell and I’ll make a red picture ou the wall behind you. You blustering brag tring knave l You are a coward at heart—despicable car! You came up here to murder two boys because you thought it a nice, easy task; And now you are pale and trembling with fear. I would kill you in your tracks, but that I don’t want your dirty blood on my hands. Go, now’. Turn instantly. Leave your knife and pistol where they are. I’ll keep them. Go down to your friends on the street and tell that a boy whipped you—disarmed you and kicked you down stairs ! Do as I tell you instantly. It you hesitate you will never see tho sun set. Well trembled from head to toot, glanced once more at his revolver, but did not daro to raise his hand. Ilis face was pale and his lips were dry. Do you hear mo 1 demanded Darrell sternly. Yes, yes; don’t shoot! replied Wolf turning about as commanded, lie was thoroughly eowed. Do not turn your ugly taco this way again, said Darrell, or you will pay for it w-ith your life. Move ! Tamer than a whipped cur, the ruf fian walked towards the door, and Darrell, shringing over tho coun ter was at his heels upon the in stant. Don’t look back, or I w r ill kill you! Meekly obeying the imperative or ders ot the youth, Wolf moved slowly out of the room into the narrow oorri dor. Be careful; don’t—-dont let that gun go off, Wolf stammered as be reached tho head ot the stairs. At this moment the clamors of the impatient crowd below arose with ter rible distinctness, and one shrill voice was heard to say: Hurry up, Wolf. Why don t you throw them fellows out? Exasperated beyond measure, he was on the point of turning back at the risk of his life; for, after all his braggadocio, how could ho face those below, disarmed and chased out of the building by one of the puny boys he had intended so terribly to chas tise? But Darrell was after him, and, with one vigorous Kick, sent him heels over head down the wooden stairs with a thundering clatter, and, roll-* ing over the doorsill, the defeated bully actually tumbled out upon the street before he could recover his equi librium. Hello! How is this? What is up? ask ed a dozen voices at once, as the dread ed inan reappeared in this undignified shape without having sent any corpse from the window. Why, I simply kicked him down stairs—that s what 8 the matter re sponded the boyish voice r ot Darrell at the head of the stairs; and if he comes up here again I will not let him ofl so easy. Do not be afraid of h im; I tcok all his weapons from him. Wolf struggled to his feet, rubbing his heal, and presenting such a ludi crous appearance that ho was greeted with loud jeers and bursts of laughter. So completely had he tumbled from his lofty eminence in the eyes of those who either admired or feared a bold murderer, that they who an hour ago would have dreaded to offend him by word or look, now regarded him with contempt—laughed at and deri ded him. Ha, ha, ha! resounded on all sides. Licked by a boy! Bah ! Kicked down stairs by a child ! Gut your barkers took from you ! You ought to egged out of town! Thiee groans for Wolf! and three groans were given with a will. Th ree cheers for the little boy that kicked him! was responded to by three loud, long and enthusiastic cheers. Never before had the rough crowd seen * man with an established repu tation like Mr Wolf thus suddenly fall to such a depth ot degradation. All his name, tame, prestige, melted away like a mist, and he was no longer O respected by the low thieves and cut-throats around him—only de spised. Yes, detested by the meanest of creatures, whom he had oftentimes bulied as though they had been houuds. How little, how pusilanimous he looked now, as he slunk toward Mont gomery street 1 Those who had known him tor the last year, and regarded him as a giant, now’ fancied that he stood barely five feet six inches in his boots. The dread that had surroun ded his name had cleared away like a vapor. Such was Wolf 8 mortification when he came to realize wdiat a pitia ble figure he had cut, that he left San Francisco, and was seen in her streets no moro. The fatality that had ap*» parently thus far shielded and assisted this murderer in his murder ous work now suddenly deserted him. He was destined nev r to commit an other murder, but was himself shot dead in Sucraniento within just thiee weeks after the events which I iwive narrated. Ido not know what has ever be come of Knayes, or whether he is still alive; but I know that Darrell, the brave boy, whose coolness and courage saved them both, is to-day a gentleman of position, residing in a large and flourishing city of Neva da. From the Atlanta Constitution. The Comptroller’s Report. The fourth annual report of Comp* troller Goldsmith is a very interesting document. It is a bird’s eye view ot the state’s resources. It shows what we have lost and gained in a year of severe shrinkage. The taxable prop erty of the year was $15,902, 134 less than in 1875; but this decrease, large as it is, is not near so large as that sustained in many '’other states.— The decrease would have been more severely felt hut for the gains in fur nituro and tools. Os the loss, farms ing lands furnished five and half mil lion?; city property about three and three quarters millions; money and solvent debts nearly six millions; mcr chandisc two millions and bank shares two and a quarter millions. And yet the taxable properly of the state is $19,189,523 more than it was when Colonel Goldsmith assumed his pres* eut. duties. The comptroller believes that the re turns of many corporations are tar bo low what they should be, and bo there fore asks the legislature to amend the law so that ho can rectify such re turns according tothe best information at his command. lie recommends a change in the fiscal year so as to give all of December to the accurate prep* aration ot the statistical information demanded by the annual reports. To avoid confusion and error he recom mends that the entire poll tax be paid to the treasurer, and that it be trans ferred to the counties when the net amounts due them respectively are as certained. - The tables fill over one hundred pages of the report. We can only glance through them this morning, selecting a few leading facts. Although there was a gain of 534,- 744, acres in improved lands, yet that class of property shows a decrease in value amounting to $5, 401, 233, ow ing to a loss of twenty two and one third ceuts an acre in average value. The average value of improved land in Fulton county is $14,29 an acre, the lands of no other county attaining to the dollars. The valuations of city property in the leading counties are as fol low's: Fulton $11,534,471 Chatham 11,228,480 Richmond 7,124,050 Bibb 4.484,011 Muscogee 5,610,310 Clarke 1,209,120 Floyd 1,118,920 Chatham possesses the most ‘mon ey solvent and debts; 4 Fulton the most merchandise; Richmond tho most stocks and b< nds; and Muscog gee the largest investmedts in cotton mills. We give the aggregate valu at ions of the five leading counties: Chatham $20,101,446 Fult n.... 19,784,469 Richmond 16,174,323 Bibb 9,0*2.683 Musccgee 7;252,79G The colored people ot the state own 457,635 acres of laud, also city prop erty to the value of nearly two mil lions, and enough other property to swell their total valuation to $5,488,- 867. The closing table of the report is a masterpiece ot statistical work. It shows by counties a wonderful array of tacts—all on one sheet. There are 1,309 lawyers in the state, 96 ot whom live in Fulton. Chatham and Rich mond have each 58 The state also contains 1,578 doctors, Fulton leading off with 68, while Richmond has 35 and Chatham 33. Colquitt cont nins but $2,130 worth of merchandize.— Washington county has wiso ly invested $334,512 and Bartow $312, 845, in horses, mules and live stock—the two leading counties of the state in that respect. There is scarefy no end to similar facts in the pamphlet before us. and we forbear—believing however that we have stated enough to induce ev ery ‘thoughtful citizen to obtain a copy of tho excellent and comprehen sive report, for the purpose of present study and future reference. From the Atlanta Constitution. The Public Purse. The annual report of Treasurer Re n froe is chiefly a matter of tables, but those tables present in the clearest possible manner a deal of information that concerns every taxpayer, every citizen, in tact of tho State. They present overy essential fact in relation to’the finances of the State, her bon ded debt and her liabilities as an en dorser—not one overlooked so far as we can discover. Before wo come to the tables, a history is giyen of the negotiation of new seven per cent, bonds to the amount of $542,000, at an expense of less than six hundred dollars, including advertising for pro posals, printing ot bonds, etc. The pre miums realized on the sale ot bonds were nearly five times the expenses of the entire transaction. And then vve come to the carefully prepared tables which are as full of facts as an egg ot meat. The reeogmz ed debt of the State amounts to SB, 547,500 and the tables in the report show the year when the different por tions tall due, the months when the different portions fall due, the months when the interest is to be paid *on each part, and a variety of other .in formation especially interesting to the the holders of the bonds. Only SIOO,- 000 of tho principal falls due this year. There are also bonds outstanding to the amount ot $2,688,000, bearing the endorsement of tho state, as foL lows; Macon an*l Binnuwlck $1.950,000 North and South 240,000 Memphis Branch 84,000 All three ot theso roads have de faulted, and tho two first are held and operated by the state. Add the fore going amounts to the bonded debt o r the state, and we have a grand total of $10,671,500, which is probably just about the size of the load that we must tote to tiio days ol final pays ment. The Treasurer estimates the re ceipts of 1877 at $1,457,000, made up of the following items. General tax of 1877 $875,000 General tax of 1576 295,000 Rental of Western and Atlantic R.

And so they should be. - ■ A Western newspaper has the fol lowing notice: ‘All notices ot marriage where no bride cake is sent will bo set up in small typo and poked in an out landish corner of the paper.
