He joined the M E Church and was appointed class leafier by Winscr Graham in 1837. He was licened to Exhort under J T Smi dt ill 184f>.

(Skiffix, Ga., March 23rd ’B3 trev Boynton ie & Oriffinite and the people of riffin are exceeding ly anxious khat he be elected Gov ernor. As a man and a citizen, he is very popular here with his neighbors. His election totha Gu bernatorial chair will not only bs regarded ae a compliment -to the merits of the aaan as a statesman but will at the same time be re garded as a compliment to the city of Griffin. It is but just to say ia personal appearance, Gov Boynten is univrsallv jonceeded to be the 1 most likely man ir Grifiia, and at the same tiiae one of the most talented. That lie will make a good Governor, one that will be acceptable to the majority of the people, there is n© reason to doubt. Little estimate can be placed upon a man or his abilities until he is thoroughly and fairly tried; he may prove just and faith ful in every respect, and theu ; again, his whole administrative acts may be characterized by a con tinaous series of blunders and mistakes. Too much caution in ! choosing aoy man to as irepertant a function as Governor can not lie ! exercised. No moic defe.er.ee should be had t« any tnan for his personal appearance, bis genteel personal manners, or to any particular locality in auch a grave selection, hqt that man alone sheuld he selected for his abilities arid worth, combined with his unswerving honesty and his due regard for the rights of the people. The people of Spxldipg cottntj are beginning te give much atten tiop to what is known as “Truck farming"- raising vegetables, po tatoes. melons, fruits and grapes.- Many Northern settlers are ingin and locating in and around tfriftin. They are particularly de lighted with the climate and pro daotive aspect of the soil. What Spalding coiwty particularly needs, js the need of many , other counties in the Stata, and that is a better protective system in farm ing. VTh-it I particularly mean by a protective system is greater econ oipy ancl more liberal matin ring of the soil by placing or gwing to it in the way of manures more than is taken away by crops. lam cor tain this cannot b» done by the use of commercial manures. The people have long triad the experi ment at heavy costs. We must use our own manures, we must give more attonii >n to Übmpost ing and mnking manure. This is protection, and such protection as is to reclaim our worn and waste lands. I have been much over the State and have been no idle tfbsorver It is a settled opinion of my own thnt in the point of actual fertility es soil, good, clever citizens, pret ty, amiable ladies, Gwinnett conn t» cannot be 1 excel ed by any coun ty of the State. I msko this etate ment freely and nubiased-by any motives whatever, and why a well to do Gwinnett man wisbis to try his fortune elsewhere is mor« than I cau diviue. Larkiv. There is considerable excitement in the county over the recent in dictments for illegal voting. The parties indicted nay that one him dred and sixteen defaulters were picked out of something over five hundred. They want to know why is this thus!

Little Rock, March 21.— The Johnson brothers, two of ihsLittlo Rock knd Fort Biuith train rob ber*, in jail here, have confessed, ‘Gov.’ Juhnsoi said that the party was organized at Mrs, Herndon's but tbeir plan wan not entirety com pleted then. They adjourned to meetngMn at Mulberry, where the plan rs operntious was formed.— The intention was not to kill any one. except ir self defense, and to avoid blood shed except absolute ly necessary. The shooting was done under excitement and wns en tirtsly unnecessary. Jim Hern lon, who wr* cnptnroi this morning near Huntsville, Madison comity, fired the shot that killed conduc tor Cain.
