We have bee.i furnished, by Hon. M. I*.

The act re qu res iho Ordinary, upon /hepe ition i f one hundred citizeus, to order an election, within not teas than thirty, uor mire than forty days after the publication of his order. The election to be held at all the pieciuts in the county, and il a majority of the voles are against whiskey, from that time forward it will be il egal, either to inuimfac/ui'e or sell, in any quanti y, any spirituous or malt liquors, except domes, ic wines, cider, etc- The bill is very full in its details, and provides for an election every year unt.l prohibition is carried.

Why, no longer than lasi Saturday, we were mistaken for the new preacher. Ttie preacher lias our heart,telt sympathy. As oon as we meat him, we will apolo gize. But it was left until yester day, to cep the climax. A big, burly, ton ol H im, with a still lar ger grip-suck swung across Ms shoulder, entered our sanctum door, and wi has much noncha. lence a; a Gainesville lawyer, blur, ted out: “Mister do you sell any whis-kee, here?” During a life time in the limiting business we have neve/- know this aitiele used around an office, other than to ‘‘grease” type, or to sharpien lead pencils. But we are undone— Siam, bang! There now 'he devil has pied his ease. Card of Thanks We desire to return our most cordial thanks to the giod people of Lawreueeville and vicinity who have greeted us with such marked kindness and hospi tality Alice our arrival in their midst. No.’ only has this been ev idenced with kind words but hearts and hands, sending in o' t ie good .liiogs of life making our pantry to smile with plenty. This g ad work was commenced ou the day of o r arriva , which was ihe diy before Christ mas, we were greeted with many baskets laden with the best the confect ionaiy stores could furnish, and tue rarest and richest the market c mbl afford. Bearers of these good things were seen coming in from every direction. On new years day the same spirit of kind ness was manifested. An abund ance of good thingß of ev ery tin 1, too numerous io mention, from the closet, granary, smoke home, poultry yard, thiiv, many loads of wood etc., Suffice it to say, a grand dis play of a benevolent spirit. Cer tainly our bents do well up with thu k(givings at such tokens of appreciation*. It nerves our hearts and strengthens om hands for preaching the glorious gospel of Cl list to a w orld lying in ein arid death. To our frienas, and brethren in Christ, we tender our warmest thanks, and pray that t o bread that they have so gerer oit-ly divided, may ever enlarge io this worlds goods, and heaven’s b um ics may be tneiis at last. Your Pastor J. F. McCkllasd. BY HIS OWN HANDS THE SAD KNDI.III OF A WAYWARD I.iEK. About two weeks ago, G. A. Ben son, Jr., who was raised in Phi la dolphin, and formerly tiaveled for the linn of Z. Deforest, Ely A Co. came to Lawreneeville to upon I Chrisimcs, and hunt with some ( f his acquaintances. He win evident lj well educated, and claimed to heapugiles'. He bad been s port ing around with the boys, hut seemingly had some trouble on his mind, as he stated ouce or twice, in the presence of Mr Herring. Ina* hefc re he w mid go to jail I e would kill himself. While hunt ing one day last week, he stated to Mr. Herring, that if i' was Dot for his father and mother he would blow liis head off. Ou lasi Friday evening a tele gram was received from olit/f Con nally, of k'lanta, requesting (bear rest of Bet son, tor cheating and swindling. He lias been boarding at the Markham, getting out of money he drew a Check on his father for 9100, paid S4O to the Hotel, and retained the Iml nee in cash. Ttie check was returned di-honored. This was the cause of his arrest. Marshal Adair had himin charge until bed-time and at Bensons re quest guarded him at the Hotel rather than put him inpiison. lb seemed cheerful and played card i until bed-time when he and the Marshal went, to bed in the same room but in different beds. Next morning a litide after day the marshal was aroused by bear ing a struggling noise at Bensons bed. tie hurried to l iiu aud found him s' ot and struggling in death. Adair wen* down stairs after Mr. Bates but when they returned he was dead. He had shot himself with a small pistol. The suicide was carefuly planue 1. /'lie [list ot had evidently been held against his left breast just over the heart and fired, /lie powder burning his undershirt. Adair didn’t even hear the report, the pistol being covered by the bed clothing and it is supposed the report woke hitr. The pistol belonged to N B Bates and had Leen taken from his room several days before, show ing ttiat he had prepared for the worst. It Aetna that he was something of a gay Lothario, at a number o ! letters from young ladies wen found upon the mam el,one signed “your deserted Ruth,” and the o/her “Dorie.” Mr. Herring telegraphed the house, with which Benson former ly done business, notifying them of tliesuicde and asking lustruc tiouß as to his remains. A Coroner’s incpiest was held during the day and returned the following verdict: Georgia n wiunett County. /n accordance with inquest taken this day January 3rd 1885, liefon James 11. Wilson Coroner of s /icl County, upon the body of G. A. Benson Jr., here lying d ad at the Globe Hotel in the town of Law renceville we the Jurors afore said upon our oaths say ihat G A Benson came to his death this Jay by a pistol shot, said pistol being in the hands ot the said G A Benson Jr., with liiteul to com mit suicide.

Give Them Homes. lii walking around t/io suburbs of lawrenceville a newcomer can not but be impressed with tl.e many desirable and beautiful spots which could be utilized for buikfing purposes Yet these places are neglected to a certain extent and their desirability not recognized, or if recogu zed not made known, so that they com in without improvement of any kind Many of these places, the owners of wnicli put too high a price on on them, would have by being offered at riot a exborbitani a valua tio.i soon be built up with beauti ful residences and cosy homes Owners of real eit ate would do well to sell out at least a portion of their property so that /lie value of the lemtinder be more greatly enhanced. 1/ would certainly pay them and surely would in crease population, wealth accord ingly. Even now a house to rent in this place is a rarby, the de m ild so greatly exceeds the sup ply /hat ih a mat er of ihe great difficulty f> r a stranger to secure a house even ordinarily coniform bie. Lawrenceville is growing in population, and nouies must be built tor this increase. We have great faith in the future of this place and expect to see it con ni ne to augment its wealth and im portance and at no distant day command and recieve ihe tiuds to which she wi 1 be be, and is : o justly en’itled.
