Af ter a ebon absence, the committee returned and reported the names of the lion. Isaac L Hughes and the Rev. Robert A. Eakcs, as delegates, and James 0. Blackstock and Now ton Harrell, Esqs., as alternates. On motion of Sheriff Simms, the report was adopted ; after which the Rev. Alexander 13.

I gave her a rose and gave her a ring, and asked her to marry me then ; but she sent them all back — the insensible thing—and said she’d no notion of men. I told hor I had oceans of money and goods—tried to frighten her with a grow' ; but she answered she wasn’t brought up in the woods to be scared by the screech of an owl. I called her a baggage and everything bad ; I slighted her features and form , till at length I succeeded in getting her mad, and she raged like a sea iu tho storm. — And then in a moment i tinned and smiled, and called her toy angel and all; she fell in my arms, like a wea risome child, and exclaimed, “We will marry next fall.’ The Detroit Free Dress says that, if Grant’s expense: aro *IO,OOO a year more tiian his salary, and in three year.- he manages to lay by ibOO.OOO, what’s the use of bringing out any mor: arithmetic.- ?

Editors Constitution ■ Your cor respondent had tho pleasure of being at Icovillo cn the occasion of tho pic nic of the Hibernian Benevolent So ciety, a few days since, and had his ideas so mixed up with pretty women, music, dancing and picnicing gener ally, and ice making, that he has had some trouble in arranging them to fit the limits of an article for your paper. lie will attempt, however, to toll your readers who were so unfor tunate as not to he present, what ho knows about making ice. Tho works called Iceviilo arc on the banks of the Chattahoochee river, bet ween the old railroad bridgo cross ing and tho presont bridgo on the State Iload. The buildingeontaining the machinery, etc., is about throe hundred feet from the river. It is part in excavation with stone walls and part in wood about thirty by thirty, and twenty feet high. At one end there is a gallery or platform about ten feet from the first tloor on which the ice is made. There is a steam boiler in one corner on the lower floor, and there are divers tanks, cylinders, pumps, pipes, etc. Tho still is perched pretty high up over the boiler, and the ammonia pipe is near it. The water of the river is pumped up by steam through a largo iron pipe to the first floor, 85 feet above the river, and thence to a reservoir enclosed in earth about 98 feet above tho river In this reservoir the wa ter settlor, and from it the still is supplied The still, of course, has its “worm” and condenser and fur nishes the water pure of which tho ice is made. The distilled water is conveyed in pipes to the before men tioned platform at which it is deliv ered through two flexible pipes into the tin cases in which it is to be fro zen. The ammonia vessel is a tall cylin der about twenty feet high standing on end, it is covered with coarse cloth and contains coils of pipe, through which the steam passes to volatilize the ammonia contained in the cylin der and surrounding the steam pipe coils. Haro the ammonia is convert ed into gas, and is forced through pipes to two tanks, side by side with a passage between them, on the sec ond floor or platform. T hese tanks contain some thousand feet of pipe, ! through which the refrigerating am ! menia gas is rapidly forced. The I pipe in the tanks is so arranged -is to | leave space for the immersion of ninety-six tin cases. 3x9x30 inches each, and they—the pipes as well as the tin eases—are surrounded by wa ter saturated with common salt (chloride of sodium). The gas of ammonia, after passing through the pipes in the tanks and absorbing the caloric of the. water, is condensed with very little loss and is used again and again. The refrigerating tanks are like two large chests, their top covers ] have uinety-six oblong apertures I about 4xlo inches, and each of these have a cover marked No. 1 to 90. which keep them constantly close. Opposite the end of each tank there is an aperture in the floor about the same size of those in the tank, and near these there are two hot water | wells just large enough to admit a | tin case. Near these are two low ! tables, with their tops inclined, on which the ice cakes are shaken out of their moulds, and close by a large table holding a bucket of water, etc. In making ice two men are engag ed, one of them slips a tin case into its’ hole in tho floor and then turns tlie flexible hose into it, which on reaching the bottom opens its own valve and lets on the wafer; by means of a cork float, as soon as the case is filled to the proper depth, the pipe is lifted and the valve dosed, thus there is no waste of water it the person attending should happen to ho otherwise engaged. The case on the other side is treated in the same wav and as they aro filled they are placed iu tho refrigerating tank and covered- This, at tiist, is a deliber ate operation, but by the time one bundled and ninety-two have been immersed No. 1, or the first put in, is ready to bo taken out. Now an extra case is filled with water and while ouo man takes out that which has boen frozen the olhet stands ready to do so, and replaces it with I bis case of water. Tho Irozuii case, | after draining fora moment the salt water from its surface, is dipped into well of hot water for a second or so, and then laid, edge up, on the low inclined table, and a plendid cake of ieo is shaken out of it. I his is plac ed on ouo tfa] of tho lu';,o ,‘I -* .:a« . to No iO* t... • COMING EVENTS CAST THEIR SHADOWS BEFORE! ’ refrigerating tank, take out and put in oases, as before mentioned. It goes on like clock work and keeps the men busy When the second cake is taken out it is placed on the first, tho top of which has been sprin kled with water, they thus freexe to gether. A third and then a fourth cake are thus put together, forming a block, which is carried some fifteen or twenty feet and packed in an ice car standing on the railroad track near the door. If the ice is not in tended for present shipment the blocks are carried to an ice house some thirty or forty feet distant and stored for future orders. The cakes of ice thus made are beautifully transparent. They are about three inches thick, nine inches j wide and twenty-six inches long.— About one and a halt inches of this length is due to expansion in freezing. Each cake weighs twenty-one and a half pounds. The capacity of the works is an average of !) tons per day of 24 j hours —during the summer the day's work will be about 1 tons, and in the winter about 11 tons. This rate will give 2,700 tons or 5,400,000 pounds per year, which is comparatively a small supply, but as the trade be comes established it will be easy to meet anv demand which may exist or spring up from the patronage of the towns and villages on the various lines of i ail road leading from Atlanta. That water could be frozen by means of a chemical operation La? been well known for years, and ii would afford a very interesting chap ter in chemical science to tollow f lie invention from the freezing of a few drops of water in a watch crystal, some forty years ago to its present success, freezing by the ton, and to show how a small, amusing, philoso phical experiment has been magnified into a manufacture for commercial purposes. As a very decided South ern institution, these works are wor thy tho patrouage of all, and every man. woman and child at the South, if they tnke anything, oven to n glass of water, should insist on having ice in theirs. Being made of pure distilled river water, those who have been accus tomed, as some of our friends hare been to the use of “seasoned” water may object to this ice as being “too fresh,” but for medYinal purposes or the full enjoyment of a glass of port wine, claret or brandy no better can be applied. I'hilufs. Brutal Murder by Negroes. Upon last Friclry night a tragedy, more horrible in its detail" than ever occurred in this vicinity, was enacted at llowoll Station, in Rankin county, seven miles east of this place. The details, ns we learn them, are as fol lows: After dark, upon the night above named, as the negroes belong ing to the llowell Station (Vickslmrg and Meridian Railroad) section gang, were loafing around the depot at that place, there came to the crowd, an aged colored man, who had recently been employed on one of the adjoin ing plantations, but was then idle, and expressed himself as looking for work. In his conversation with the hands he remarked that ho could cure the bite of a snake and had anti dotes for poison. The cry was raised by the negroes, “he is a voodoo con jurer,’’ “search him,” “search him.” Which was no sooner said than done. They found a few harmless herbs and roots in the old man’s pocket, which confirmed their suspicions, and they took this old man of eighty years, tied him hard and fast to the railroad track, and began heating him. “Kill him ?” “kill him !” crie<| the infernal crowd, and the lash came harder and faster; lie screamed wkh agony, and making a last desperate effort writhed himself almost out of the bonds and into a tire of pine knots lying by the track, but that effort was his last, for • the fire burned bis shirt and scorched his skin and he made no noise. “See! he is a conjurer,’' they said, nnd again the lash come down ; they continued this for some time longer, and loft him. The next morning he was found twentv yards from the track stone dead.* Whether he was able to drag himself to the spot or was dragged there by his murderers is not known, but tho presumption is the latter. The murderers have l>een arrested and confined in jail at Bran don.—Jctcknov (Miss.) Clarion. An exchange pruts a chapter ol the llibte without credit.

They wore made for some good purpose, but 1 never have been informed for what, unless it was tew hav their heads smashed. They are sod tew be innocent, but tliev Lav got a bad reputashun, and ail the innocence in the world won’t cure a bad reputashun. They liv in the grass, but seldom git slept on, bekause they don’t stay long enough in the right place. When i waz a littlo hoy, and wore naked feet, and waz loafing around loose f>i straw berrys, i was often tin os just a going to stop on a striped suaik, but it alwus cured me ov straw berry B. If a striped snake got into a 10 akre lot before i did, i alwus kousid ered that all the straw berrys in that lot belonged tew the snaik. “Fust cum, fust sane,” was my motto. I’m just az Laid of snaiks now az i was 50 years ago, and if i should liv tew he az old az Nebudkonnezor waz, and go to grass a/, he did, one striped snaik would spile 50 akers ov good pasture for me. Wiruuien don’t iuv snaiks enny more than i do, and i respukt her for this. How on earth Eve was seduced by a snaik iz a fust class mystery tew uie, and if i liadu’t read it in the Bible i would bet against it, I bcleave evretbing there iz in the Bible; the things i kant understand i bcleave the most. I wouldn’t swop opli the faith I h iv got for any living man’s knowledge. Snaiks are ov all sorts and sizes, and the smaller they are the more I’ui afraid ov them. I wouldn’t buy a farm at haff price that bad a striped snaik on it. I.)ed snaiks are a weakness with me ; i always respukt them, and when ever i see a ded one in the road, i don’t drop a tear o.n him, but 1 drop another stone on him for fear he might altor his mind and cum tew life again, for a snaik hates tew die just az much ai a kat duz. 1 never could ackwntil foi a snaik or a kat hateing tew die so bad, un less it waz bekause tha waz so poorly prepared for deth.

I never saw a baby in my hie that i didn’t want tew kiss; i am wuss than an old maid in this respekt.

From the Atlanta Oonstitutinn. Thrilling; A clvont tiro—Truth Strange-1- than Fiction. On last Satuiday, between two and three o’clock, Major John B. Stew ard, who lives on his farm near the north base of Stone Mountain, thought he heard the voice of a man in distress on the steep side of the mountain. Upon looking up he saw the head of a man, and saw him waiving his hands for succor. The man called to Major Steward for a drink of water, and said that ho had but little money but lie would give it all to be taken from tho place he was. Major Steward asked him if he was not hoaxing him 1 The man re plied that he was in earnest. Major Steward was a gallant wearer of the gray and has a heart always open to the cry of the distressed. Caution ing the man to keep quiet, he pro ceeded at once to town and obtained assistance. 'I lie news spread like wild tire over town, and every heart ran out in an guish for tho condition of the unfor tunate one. Those who went to the rescue made “quick time” to got there- Men were stationed at the base of the north side to signal the party on top at what point to de scend. Securing the rope to a cedar tree firm 1 v imbedded betweon two massive rocks, Col. J. T. Willingham and F. F. Julian made tho perilous descent to rescue the man. About throe hun dred feet from the top of tho moun tain they came to him. He was lying in a gulch, or water course fur rowed out of the rock by rains. Ono foot was jammed iu a crevice and tho other bent under Ids body, lie was bugging the rock closely, while one hand was grasped iu the strap on the collar ol Ins coat. A small tablet of rock, two or throe feet long, and a foot or so wide, was all that was between him and a fall of somo twelve hundred feet to the ground, Had ho moved two or three feet, either to the right or loft, he would have been precipitated twelve hun dred feel to the bottom, aud only a horrible mass would have been found to tell the tale. lie hae lain there from Friday evening late until Saturday evening about 5 o’clock, a period of nearly twenty-four hours. His anxieties and sufferings were intense no doubt. Ilia foot wero swolon, lacerated and blistered by the hot rocks; the sun poured upon him its fiercest rays, causing the most excruciating thirst, and producing almost entile blind ness. Death seemed to stare him in the face on ail sides. Return, with out friendly aid, he could not. lie was afraid to move, either to the right or left, or get up, for that ter rible fall was beneath him. Without succor, he m ist die a lingering, tor turing death of thirst and starvation. In adjusting the rope several rocks were*tu the way and fearing that the rope might dislodge them and bring them down on the unfortunate man, they wero removed and thrown off in such a direction as not to strike on the spot occupied by the man.— With a crashing noise they rolled to tho brow of tho precipice on aline with him, and then plunged down that terrilHo distance, burying them selves in the earth at the base. Reaching the base, tho rope was tied around the man, and, assisted by Colonel J. Willingham, he was con ducted to a place of safety, anti Mr. Willingham returned then and as sisted Mr. Julian to got back. Upon reaching the summit, the rescued man was so thirsty that he would have emptied a bucket ot water at one or two draughts had he l>een suf fered to do so. lie was cat lied to Col. Willingham’s store and carod for. Much praise is due to Major Steward, Col. Willingham and Iff I*. Julian for their praise worthy and humane efforts.
