Me regret to learn that Charles T. Bayne,
Esq., of J/illedgeville, is dangerously ill and
his recovery considered beyond probability.
O
Rev. Mr. Tucker will commence a protract
ed meeting at Pine Hill church, at 10}

Since putting in type the Obituary of Mrs.
Oglesby we have received another, written
by her Pastor. Will publish it also, if de
sired.
O
Mr. James Brooks, of this county, reports
a stalk of cotton eight feet high and contain
ing two hundred and seventy-six bolls. l)oes
not claim this as an average of his crop,
however, as he has some not over three inch
es high.
O
Dr. Henry Peeples, who will be remember
ed by many of our readers as the clever and
gentlemanly Agent of the Continental Life
Insurance Company, was recently struck and
killed by lightning in Texas. He had taken
refuge under a tree during a storm.
A number of our people who sought rest
and relaxation from business in the up coun
try, have returned to the city preparatory to
the opening of the fall trade. The “can't*
get-away-club” has been quite large all sum- :
mer.
O
The Fall Term of the Sandersville High
School opened on Monday 1 last under favora
ble auspices. A number of new pupils have
come in and others yet to arrive. The form
er pupils, except a few who are seeking col
legiate honors, will perhaps all return.
O
The attention of planters is specially di
rected to the advertisement of Capt. John L.
Martin, Cotton Factor and Gen. Commission
Merchant, Savannah. Those intrusting the
sale of their cotton and other business to
Capt. M. will find him prompt and attentive
to the trust confided.
o
The family of Aug. D. Jernigan, Esq., left
this city on Tuesday last to join him in Flor
ida. Mr. J. has been sojourning in Florida
for some months past, and finding the mild
climate greatly beneficial to his hitherto fee
ble healta, contemplates making it his future
home.
In behalf of Mrs. E. A. Sullivan, we return
thanks to Messrs. Briggs & Brother, Roches
ter, N. Y., for the beautiful Chromos awarded
to her at the late Washington County Fair.—
The Herald also returns thanks to the same
enterprising house for that attractive Cliromo,
‘•The Mischief Makers.”
O
The repairs on the Christian church have
been suspended in order to give place to the
school. The house has been raised about
two feet higher from the ground and other
wise greatly improved. When completed it
will be one of the handsomest church edifi
ces in the city.
O
Retrenchment is the order of the day, it
seems, in almost every department of bus
iness, whether it be railroading or something
else. The BbownjHouse, J/acon, is an excep
tion, however. The table is spread with the
best the market affords and every' room fit
for a bridal chamber. The Brown is second
to no House in Georgia.
The continued rains gave planters much
trouble in saving their fodder. The majori
ty, however, succeeded in saving a fair sup
ply. Now that the fodder is stripped off, the
corn proves to be better eared than many
expeted it would be. The crop, of both corn
and cotton is quite spotted; some very good
and some very poor.
—o—
Some Leaf.—A large leaf was brought into
our office on last Wednesday evening by Har
rison Perry, a colored man of this city. The
leaf measured two feet, two and ahalf inches
across, three feet in length, and was in the
shape of a heart. It was a leaf of t he Tanier,
a tuberous plant of the genus Caladium sa-
gtticefolium. The leaves have a velvety sur
face.
We are pained to learn that a double homi
cide occurred in Swainesboro, Emanuel
county,on Friday last. The parties were
Mr. King, Attorney at Law, an d formerly of
Jefferson county, and Mr. McLeod, a relative
of Capt. Neil McLeod. We have not the full
name of either. The weapons used were pis
tols. Mr. King died almost instantly after
receiving the fatal shot ; Mr. McLeod linger
ed several hours. Our informant could give
us no further particulars. Mr. King leaves
a wife, and perhaps children; Mr. McLeod
was unmarried.
O
The “oldest inhabitants” say this has been
the hardest year, financially', they have ever
seen. Money has not simply been “tight,”
but on a regular “bender” since about the
first of March. The truth of the matter is,
there is a great wrong some where—a fearful
leak that ought to be stopped. One planter
tells us that “mules” “gnawed” a hole in his
pocked and fifteen hundred dollars leaked
out into Kentucky’s lap. “Supplies” for
the present year made a big rent in ever so
many other pockets, letting through the
cotton crop of last year. And so it goes.—
Stop the leaks, stop them quick.
Master James A. Cook brings us the finest
peaches of the season. Some of the lot meas
ured nine inches in circumference, and
weighed half a pound each. The flavor was
also equal to the size. Accompanying the
peaches was also a large and delicious water
melon. For all of which Jemmie has our
most grateful thanks.
O
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of
the Sandersville High School, held on Mon
day last, a beautiful plan for the new school
building was adopted. The style of archi
tecture will be something new for this coun
try and quite imposing. The Trustees—who
are also the building committee—meet again
next Monday, when they will proceeded to ad
vertise for contracts. In the mean time
builders would do well to examine the plan
and be prepared for making bids.
The State Agricultural Convention which
was held in Athens last week, was an occas
ion of much interest. A large number of
delegates was in attendance, and much busi
ness of importance was transacted. Gover
nor Smith made an address, which was replete
with valuable statistical information, and
made a deep impression upon those sturdy
yeomen who heard him. He showed that
there had been fully fifteen per cent, decrease
in the crop acreage of Georgia, from 1860 to
1870. He also showed that in the same time
there has been 4 per cent, decrease in the
production, while there has been in the same
decade 12 per cent, increase of the population
of the State.
An election was held for officers of the
State Agricultural Society, during the Con
vention, and Gen. A. H. Colquitt was re
el e c t e d President by’ acclamation. The
other offices were filled by vote.
A banquet was given by the citizens of
Athens to the members of the Convention.
The next Convention will be held at Colum
bus, in February, 1874.

get him, of BILL BENNETT, colored a no

made his escape from me between Sanders

Said negro is about 30 years of age, about
5 feet 8 or 10 inches high, and black complec
ted and wore his beard. He had on when he
escaped, the United States army blue pants,
somewhat worn, a short sack coat of dark
gray color, white osnaburg shirt, black hat,
considerably worn, and was barefooted. He
probably may attempt to make his way to
South Carolina. Said negro sometimes gives

Notice.
B Y a recent decision of the Supreme Court,
Homesteads can be sold for debts con
tracted prior to July 21st 18G8. All who are
troubled with such debts, come to see me
in the Court-house next door to Post Office
and I, with able assistance, will put the
strong arms of Bankruptcy around your
Homesteads which will shield them from the
Sheriff and from blood thirsty creditors.
All that about you having to pay a wagon
load of green backs to have it done, is bosh.
Bring seventy-five dollars with yon to pay
the cost, which must be cash, and I will charge
you a living fee besides. By the Bankrupt
law yon are allowed two thousand dollars
worth of real estate at gold value, one thou
sand dollars worth of personal property, and
five hundred dollars worth of household and
kitchen furniture. The debtor is intitled to
the above exemption against liens, judge
ments, mortgages and debts, whether con
tracted before or since Jannary 1st, 1869.—
If he has more than thirty-five hundred dol
lars he will have to pay 50 cents on the dol
lar on debts contracted prior to the 1st day
of Jannary, 1869.
