A pleasant episode in the convention

hearty applause.
Something New.—Now that the new
has worn off the office, Mr. New, the
new treasurer, is beginning te find it a
nuisance and is sighing for something
new, or at least such is the newest news
we hear from Washington.
The largest flouring mill in America
is owned by Hon. C. C. Washburoe, of
Minneapolis, Minn. It is seven stories
high, and crowded with machinery from
top to bottem. Its cost was $300,000,
has forty run of burrs, and turns out
1000 barrels of flour per day.
Mrs. Williams, once the wife of Ste

they were made to fit Mr. Williams.
We regret to learn of the death of
Chancellor Foster, of Alabama, who
died at his residence in Jacksonville on

noted for his brilliant parts, and stood
high in the estimation of the people.
His death will be widely mourned.
We surreindcr much of our space tit-
day to the publication of the report of
Maj. J. C. Long on the survey of the
Etowah rivw. It is of peculiar interest
to our people, and will doubtless be
read with attention.
Mr. M. Stanton is a good railroad man
and so long as he looks to the interests of
the company which employs hiui lie shall
receive our hearty support, but when he
uses the office to advance his own private
interest to the detriment of the company
and to the patrous of the road, he may
expect our indignant censure. We un-
derstaud from reliable sources that he is
largely interested in u cotton compress at
Selma, and in order to got bueiuess for it
ho has raised the rato of freights on cot
ton against Rome along the line of the
Selma. Rome & Dalton Rome. This is
to drive cotton to Selma and to his com
press. Snch discrimination is thoroughly
mean and the man who is guilty of it is a
dishonost man.

The New Yerk Herald says: “ White
people, it is proved, can labor in the
fields ef Louisiana, where formerly the
climate was considered an insurmount
able barrier.” And this shows how lit
tle the New York Herald knows about
Louisiana. White people have always
labored in the fields of Louisiana.
Mr. Wilson makes the third Vice-
President who has died in office. George
Clinton, who held the office, succeeding
Aaron Burr, during Mr. Jefferson’s
second term, and the first term of Mr.
Madison; Elbridge Gerry, who held it
in Mr. Madison’s second term, and Wil
liam R. King, of Alabama, Vice-Presi
dent under Franklin Pierce.
Judge John L. Hopkins of the At
lanta circuit has expressed his intention
of retiring from the Superior Court
bench, and has signified hie wish in that
event to be appointed Judge 6f the city
court of Atlanta.
We have no objection to his retiracy
from the Supreme court, but shall most
earnestly protest against his appointment
by Gov. Smith to auy other office. We
hold that while politics should not euter
into the consideration of judicial fitness,
yet when party friends can bo found
equally competent with enemies, it is both
policy and justice to appoint them. Hop
kins was appointed by Bullock because
of party sympathy, by tho same rule he
cannot claim any favor of Smith,
His appointment by Governor Smith,
would bo botli injudicious and impolitic.
He is physically and mentally unfitted
for tho place he now occupies. The same
disabilities would obtain in the other.
His Radical sympythies secured the favor
of Bullock, the same proclivity should
exclude him from tho favor of Smith.
There are a number of good and true
Democrats iu Atlanta who are equally
competent to the discharge of the duties
of city Judge. If th*re is to be a va
cancy in that court let it be filled by one
of them.
Georgia News.
AN Oil TRACE,
It is unpleasant to denounce any man,
and especially a man whose high station
would indicate a confidence and integrity
which entitles him to peculiar respect, but
the conduct of Mr. Stanton in raising the
freights on cotton to Rome, iu order to
drive it to his compress in Selma, is so
thoroughly mean that we arc compelled
to notice and denounce that official as un
worthy the place he fills and the trust re-
posod.in him by the company.
Poor old Henry S. Foote having be
come bankrupt in means, as he has al
ways been in politioal honesty, now
comes forward and wants an office. He
wants it badly, and thinking the best
way to get it is to boot-lick Grant, he
goes down upon his knees and does
reverence to the mighty Ctrsar. Parson
Brownlow is the high priest through
whicli he offers up his adorations, and
tho two make a pretty pair. Brownlow
however, is honest, while Foote is a de
testable and detested rogue.
Wo find the following in the Talade-
ga Mountain Home of yesterday. It is
of sufficient importance to demand the
attention and action of our merchants.
If theditcrim mitionreferra l to is male
it is an outrage which ought to be se
verely rebuked.
Messrs. R. A. McMillan & Son, one
of our largest mercantile firms, discov
ered that Rome, Ga., was a better cot
ton market than Selma, and that the
rate of freight was less on cotton, ship
ped about 100 bales of cotton from this
point to Rome, the freight being 39cts
per 100 ll>s. This shipment turned out
so well that they determined to try
it again, and about one week ago ship
ped another 100 bales, but the rate of
freight was increased to 4Gcts per 100
lbs. Still pleased, they shipped on
yesterday one car load (24 bales) when
they were forced to pay Slots per 100
lbs—an increase of the rate of freight
on cotton from Talladega to Rome of
twelve cents in fourteen days.
It is thought here that some of the
S. R. & D. R. R. officials are interested
in the R. R. Compress and Warehouse
at Selma, and that is the cause of this
rapid increase in tho rate of freight be
tween the Highland and Mountain
city.
Why have not the Rome papers ex
posed this outrage; we have been in
formed that their attention has been
call to it?
Let the business men of Retne hold
a meeting and protest rgainst this out
rage. Let them have the rate of freight
reduced to 39 ctsand thousands of bales
of cotton will go from Talladega to their
beautiful and enterprising city.
The Columbus Enquirer thus qualifies
a recent editorial which appeared in
that paper upon the coming Guberna
torial race:
We were a little too fast the other
day. There is a difference between a
man’s being a candidate before and
after a convention. Our Atlanta friend
reported Gov. Smith aright, viewed one
way. He is not seeking or wire-working
for a nomination by the convention, nor
will he engage in a squabble for it, but
we have every reason to believe that
were he tendered a nomination by that
body, he would accept it. We believe
too in such an event he would carry
Muscogee county by a heavy majority
over any competitor. The masses of
the people favor him.
A graceless wretch down in Alabama

The Columbus Times says: A party
of capitalists from Rhode Island were
in the city lust week, looking at the

The Columbus Enquirer says: Many
years ago Vice-President Wilson was a
school teacher in Greenville, Meri
wether county, Georgia. He did not
remain there long, but returned to Mas

continues to be very heavy and is con

near Uchee, Ala., aged 16 years; was se
verely kicked by a young oolt on Sat

for his recovery. His mother on be
holding her son became completely

can survive the shock, being at presect
writing continued to her bed in a pre
carious condition.
The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel
says. We understand that a warrant
has been issued in South Carolina for
the arrest of Fettner, charging him with
murder. Fettner was the engineer of
the locomotive which telescoped the
rear car of the passenger train on the
Charlotte, Columbus and Augusta
Railroad last Wednesday afternoon
Fettner was in the city lostSunday,but
disappeared Sunday night.
The Macon Teleyraph says: A most
brutal assault was made upon a young
lady, near Fort Valley, Sunday after
noon, by a negro named John Brown,
the circumstances of which are detailed
to us as follows: Between three and
four o’clock in the afternoon the young
lady, accompanied by her father and
mother and a youngor sister, wont out
for a walk. The young lady aud her
little Bister were soon some distance
ahead of their parents. On their way
they came to a {Kind where there were
some sweetgum trees, and stopped, and
were picking gum from a tree when a
negro came up and brutally assaulted
theyouug lady by knocking her down,
evidently with the intention of out
raging her person. The little sister be
came frightened and ran back to meet
her father and told him that the negro
was killing her sister. Tiic father ran
as rapidly as possible toward the place
designated by the little girl, and when
he came in view of it, he saw the negro
sitting on hie prostrate daughter, and
cramning tnua in her mouth to stifle
her cries. Hearing tho irate father ap
preaching, the negro released his victim
and fled; but too-Tate. Neighbors and
friends joined in the pursuit, and the
villian was never lost sight of until cap
tured. He was taken to Fort Valley
and lodged in the guard-house. During
the afternoon negroes began to assem
ble in Fort Valley, and it was appre
bended that they premeditated the re
lease of the prisoner. In order to have
him the more secure he was started to
Perry, accompanied by a marshal and
a deputy sheriff. About a mile out
from Fort Valley a band of men sur
rounded the buggy, led the guard away,
and hung the negro to the limb ofatree
which stood near, where he remained
banging till ahout noon yesterday,
when he was cut down by the coroner,
and an inquest held. So far as we
were able to learn, white and colored
people of Houston county approve the
sentence. Some colored men who as
sisted in his capture weic anxious to
hang him on the spot, but were opposed
by the white men. But only a little
later he paid tho full penalty of the
outrage he had committed. The young
lady, we are happy to state, received no
injury further than the loss of one of her
teeth from the blow struck by the fiend
when he first assailed her.
John B. Petty of St. Mary’s, lias
been sentenced to be hung on the i7tli
proximo, for the murder of Elbert
Allen in 18G4—eleven years ago. Tho
case is one that recalls Bad reminis
cences of the war. Petty was a private
in the Fourth Georgia Cavalry, and
was with that command at Charleston,
and deserted from it with a fellow-
soldier named Floyd Williams. Up
to that time they had proved themselves
to be brave men. Elbert Allen, also a
C rivate in the same command, and
eing in tho same county (Cntnden)
in which they had enlisted, was de
tailed to arrest them and, proceeding t *
their homes, raptured them and curried
them back. Floyd Williamesoon after
died, and his relatives attributed his
death to his returning to c imp. Petty
soon after deserted the second time. In
December, 18G4, Allen was granted a
furlong to come home to attend to some
private affaiairs, but hearing that
threats had been made against him by
Petty, ho sent word to him that he was
not coming ofter him. It seems, how-
euer, that his enemy had determined _
to revenge himself even unto death ; j

and while Allen was driving along tho
road from Jeffersonton to his farm
with provisions for his family, he was
ambushed by Petty and killed by a Rfiliahlt,
shot from the former’s gun, Williams
gun missing fire. Poor Allen’s little
son was the only witness to the bloody
deed. In the then unsettled state of
the country, the killing went unpun
ished ; but as order was restored, Petty,
who in the meantime had married the

father’s mnrderer (who had oftenjboas-
ted ofhis bloody work) to trial, and
tracing him to Florida had him ar
rested on a requisition from the Gov
ernor of this State, and brought to trial.
He was defended by good counsel, his
wife selling the last of her estate to save
him, but with out avail. James .E
Williams, who was also tried, was ac
quitted, as there was a doubt in his
case, though we understand that Petty
has made a statement, in which he
said Williams was present’ but did not
firo at Allen, as his gun would not go
off. Thus a bloody deed, committed
in December, 1864, will bo expiated
eleven vears after.
