LOCAL USTE'W'S.
Religious Notice.— Divine Service by
tUe Rev. W. P. Kramer, at tlie Episcopal
Cliapel on next Sunday the 12th inst., at
halt past ten o’clock a. m., and at lonr
o’clOCK P. M.
taE First Feost of the season occur
red in this county on last Monday night.
It would have been a killing one bit
from the fact that a heavy wind was
blowing during the greater portion of the
night, and there was very little moisture
on the surface of the earth, there having
been no min for some time. Vegetation
showed slight effects of the frost, sweet
potato vines in some places being killed
down.
No Daii.t.— We deeply regret that we
will be unable to lulfill onr promise to
issue a daily during next week, for the
convenience of visitors to our county fair.
Sickness and affliction in our family,
which we could not foresee, make it im
possible for us "to devote the time and at
tention to the work necessary to make
the undertaking successful. We would
not be satisfied with anything except a
paper which would he worthy the at
tention of our friends; and rather than
disappoint them with an iuferior article
vre prefer to abandon the whole thing.
Broke Jail.— Some few weeks ago
Bob Ellis, colored, was arrested under
the charge of incest. He gave hail in the
sum of $ 150, for his appearance at the
next term of the Superior court. Mr.
William Stone of this county, on whose
place this modem Lot was living, went
on his bond. Having reason to believe
that the negro would leave between
twb suns, and that he would have to pay
the $l3O, Mr. Stone, a short time ago
turned him over to the authorities and
had him placed in the jail-in this place.
On l»it Weliusdiy wriwn the jailer went
to carry him his dinner, the prisoner
broke away while the door was open and
made made a desperate leap from the
platform in front ot the door. This plat
form is fully eighteen or twenty feet from
the ground. The jailer fired a shot after
him, but, so fir as known, he was unin
jured by the leap or the pistol shot. He
left tor the wild woods and has not since
been heard from.
The Great New Youk Show -Doubt
less manj’ of our readers are familiar with
the fact that Lent’s colossal show, which
is to exhibit in Washington on Friday.
October 24th. has been tor ninny years a
lending feature of the New York uintet
amusements. Dun a;; the summer montl s
the entire maal.n >lli vs ah isltmcn*- . ,si -
the large cities rif the North and West,
and the clfignace and variety of its enter
taimnents makes it the most welcome and
extensively patronized exhibition that
travels. Mr. Lent has won great, renown
for presenting in his,tents precisely such
attractions and performances as he an
nounces in Ins bjllS. A triple cirrus
t*nupe of star performers, five funny
Clowns, beiutifu! horses and pretty ponies
a superb array of wild beasts, a splendid
museum of rare curiosities, and a grand
Orchestra of 25 first-class musicians, arc
among the attractions of Lent's great
New York Show. The brilliant street
pageant on the morning of exhibition
day, will be tbc finest parade ot the kind
ever given iu the South. From the nu
merous notices of the lending journals of
the principal cities, praising Lent's exhi
bition, we have no hesitation in recom
mending it to those Who delight ill such
amusements. See advertisement.
Commissioners’ Court.— On last Mpn
day, after a long vacation, the Board of
Commissioners o' this important commer
cial centre, met to have a confab about
the news of the day aud inquire il any one
had, during the past several weeks, had
the temerity to violate the traditional or
dinances and ancient usages and customs
of this anii-revolutinnary built town.
One very dark colored blacksmith, Jim
Butler by name, and one partly colored
gem’en, whose principal occupation is
drinking rfcd hot benzine, and who is
known to fame as Joe Ball, appeared be
fore the august tribunal charged with
the offense of drunkenness, and engaging
in a rough and tumble fight at the gro
cery of ilr. Bulger, out near the depot.
toe tore Jim’s shiit to smithereens and
smashed window panes and hurst a w hole
sash out of the wholesale grocery estab
lishment aforesaid, and had a good old
time howling drunk.
They were each fined ten dollars and
costs.
Now we think the imposition of these
fines were wrong and unconstitutional
from the fact that they were imposed un
der the authority of an ex post facto law.
It is unconstitutional to punish any one
for an offense Committed previous to the
passage of the law which inflicts the pen
alty. Now Jim and Joe have been in
this place as far back as its history runs.
We think they were found here by the
first settler. Now it is also known that
they were found drunk, and have al
ways been so, indeed they were bora
drunk, if they were ever born at all. They
were drtink before any law was ever
beard of in this or any other land, and
we think tpey have a good case for ap
pealing to the higher courts.
Nor should they ever be punished
again for being drunk, because no one
should suffer a penalty for the same of
iense more than once, and Jim and Joe
have never been drunk but once, and will
never gel drunk a second time, because
they will always be drunk, and they have
been punished once already for it.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT. j
A Voting I.atly Burned to Deatli
on ttie Public Square. *
On last Wednesday this community 1
was shocked by the most appalling and
distressing accident that has ever oc-1
curred in this section. Miss Susan Go- j
lucke. daughter of Mr. Edmund Goluckc,;
a beautiful and most estimable young la
dy was burned most frightfully and fa
tally on the public square. The facts are
as follows:
On Wednesday, about noon, Miss Su
san went into the kitchen on her father’s
premises at the northwest corner of the
square, for the purpose of preparing a
Cough syrup for one of the printers in
the Gazette office who boards at Mr. Go
lueke’s. While standing with her back to ,
the stove her dress caught fire, and when
her attention was called to the fact, she
rushed out of tile building, through the
yard and into the square, screaming in
agony and terror, while the flames rttshed
up over her head and volumes of smoke
rolled up into the air above. The sight
was fearful and those w ho saw it can nev
er forget the agonizing picture of the
poor girl standing ont in distinct outline
on a ground-work of flame as she rushed
wildly and frantically through the crowd
which rapidly flew to her relief. There
were a cousiderable number near at hand
when she entered the square, and every
effort was made to save her. Men ran to
her, some taking off tlnir coats and striv
ing to smother the flames, others attempt
ing to tear her burning clothes from her
body. But, crazed by the pain aud the
terror, she tore on through the crowd,
till she was finally caught and thrown
down on the sidewalk some fifty yards
from her father's house, and the flames
smothered by the coats of those around
and by a bucket of water thrown over
her by some one in the crowd. Her
clothing had liy this time been burned
almost completely off. She was taken up
in a most pitiable condition, burned from
head to foot, and carried to bet house
amidst the wails of her afflicted friends.
Aft r the flames were extinguished, she
became .perfectly self-possessed and seem
ed more calm and collected than any one
else. All was done for her that friends
could do. The best medical men in the
town did all in tlu ir power to save her,
hut knew from the first that her case was
hopeless.
She was informed of her condition on
Wed esday evening and told that death
was inevitable. She bore the announce
ment with a fearless fortitude seldom
witnessed. Rev. W. S. Bean, pastor of
the Presbyterian Church in this place
was summoned to her bed side and ad
ministered consolation to her in her last
moments. She spoke calmlv. of death
and stated that she was r tP to
„• - Jl-,
She lingered ttllj 4 lay.
Thursday momwi’L ,y.v
quietly and without \ g
She was the only dang ... ‘aer pa
rents. Her sudden afid ■:tSm death has
cast a gloom over our whole community
and every one feds the deepest sympathy
fi r her afflicted parents and friends in
this, their hour of deepest grief.
Fair Week.—The annual exhibition
ol the Old Wilkes Fa-n,era’ami Mechan
ics’ Asssociation will open at the grounds
o! the Association in this place on next
Tuesday, the 14th inst. Wo hope-ami
trust that the majority of the citizens of
the county are taking a deep interest in
the success of this exhibition. The pro
ceeding fairs which have been held, were
of a character to make our people feel
pretty proud of the old county and her
productions.
The members of the Association, though
comparatively few in number, most as
sure lly deserve success. They have ex
pended a large amount of money without
any hope or desire lor any pecuniary re
turn. They have devoted a great deal of
time and labor to preparing and beautify
ing the grounds and the only return they
ask is. that Wilkes count/ may make a
display worthy of her people and com
mensurate with the productiveness of her
soil anil Climate.
Other counties, with a less fertile soil,
and by no means so genial a climate, ami
without the ability to grow so great a
diversity of agricultural productions, are
going ahead of Wilkes in their annual
display at their county fairs. This, we
hope will no longer be the case, hut that
Wilkes will hereafter lead ii'l other coun
ties in the State. She is the finest county
in all Georgia and is capable, if her peo
ple will exert themselves, of proving this
fact to the world at any time.
It is not yet too late tor those who have
not thought of exhibiting any article, to
get up something to show, and we do not
believe there is a household in the county
that" cannot display something which
would be instructive and interesting.
Sale Day. — On last Tuesday; Deputy
Sheriff Dyson sold, before the Court House
door the following property: Four hun
dred acres of land for $1300; one and
a half acre of land in the village of Mal
lorysville for $90.00
A lot of damaged groceries, levied on
as the property of the late firm of Arnold
& Dußose was sold, bringing fair prices,
some articles sel.ing for more than origi
nal cost.
We regret that there was more than
the usual amount of drinking on that day;
many men appearing upon the streets in
an intoxicated condition.
The yellow fever is still ravaging
Shreveport and Memphis. Aid from the
test of the country is being sent to these
suffering cities.
A. large metal button on the dress of
a woman at Portland. Maine, saved her
life recently by turning the hall from a
pistol which her affectionate husband fired
at her.
The Rural Caolixian—A New Vol
ume.—The October number of this truly
valuable Illustrated Monthly is promptly
at hand. The number before us, which
commences the Filth Volume, shows un
mistakable evidences of improvement. Its
pages contain the usual amount of useful
and practical information for the agricul
turist, the horticulturist and the home
circle. It should have a place in every
Southern Farmers’ home, not only as an
invaluable counsellor in the daily farm
work, but as a fireside companion to the
household.
The publishers announce their purpose
of offering a premium chrorno to sub
scribers. They have selected two beauti-
I ful six dollar chromos ’for that purpose,
j Subscribers will be entitled to p choice
|ot either of them on complying with the
! terms—a year's subscription paid up in
! advance, together with two dollars for a
i chrorno. This is anew enterprise for a
; Southern publication, and we hope its
j projectois will be amply rewarded for
their praiseworthy undertaking. The
chromos w ill b: ready for delivery early
in December.
The publishers are desirous ot organiz
ing an efficient corps of canvassers in eve
ry County of each of the Southern States,
to whom they will allow liberal commis
sions. Those willing to undertake the
duties are requested to make early ap
plication to the publishers at Charleston,
S. C.
Wouldn't Injure his Grot. —Some
few weeks ago we commented on tlie tol
ly of farmers who indulged in the petty
ambition of making it display of large
and prolific stalks of cotton, by pulling
up the best they had and hanging them
to the China trees around the square,
thereby injuring their crops and gaining
no reward from an unappreciative and
hard-hearted public.
On last Tuesday we saw a very large
stalk hanging to the mulberry tree in
front of the drug store of Edmondsons &
Jesse without a single boll or leaf on it.
We were told that there never had been a
boll on it, and wo supposed the worm
had destroyed the leaves.
Now- this goes to show in a most strik
ing and forcible manner the great power
and efficacy of the press; for it is clearly
evident that our article on the subject
was the cause of the production of a
stalk of cotton without bolls or leaves so
that the farmer might exhibit it without
injury to his crop. We expect this varie
ty of cotton to he in great demand here
after, and no doubt the seed will com
mand a very high price. The Gazette
takes to itself the credit of having been
the means of developing this China tree
exposition cotton, and wo think that the
farmers of this section owe an everlasting
debt of gratitude to this paper for origi
nating a variety ol the weed which can
be pulled up and brought to town and
hung astraddle of a nail in a China or
non bearing Mulberry tree witout loss or
injury to the crop. We therefore name
this cotton the Gazette non-bearing,
nail straddling, self exhibiting long stalk.

one, through its admixture with other Hubatancea:

time a tattle aud n, cathartic, a desltffcrhtum long
sought for by medical men, but never before discov

iciues and do it better than any two we know of, for
they remove nothing from the system but impurities,
ho that while they purge they also strengthen, and
hence they cause no debility and are followed by no
reaction.
Dr. Tlltt’n Pills have a wonderful influence
on the blood. They not only purify without weaken

chyle before it is converted into fluid, and thui
makes impure blood an utter impossibility. As there
1h no debilitutiou, so there is no nausea or Hickuesii
attending the operation of this most, excellent medi
