—We used to boast of Washington's
freedom from thieves and bttr
ulars, but the record of late is getting
bad. A week or two ago we noted
the burglarizing of the depot, and the
depredations in town Monday and
Tuesday nights indicated that there
was a gang of thieves in the business.

Y. Lowe slept with his doors open.
The next morning when he waked
all the clothes he had pulled off the
night before were gone; nothing else
was missing. The burgular very con
siderately left his keys and suspet •
ders just inside the front gale. He
probably wears hip pants. Early

—A negro named Sam Davis, who
stole cattle from Judge Wingfield
about two years ago, arrived here
last Tuesday from the convict camps
at the Iron mines iu North Georgia,
having served out a two years sentence
He was lot off with twenty mouths for
good lohavior Negro harbor

steal the cattle, lias never been caught.
—Sonic of the negroes about here

a report among them, and it is
thoroughly believed by many, that

up bodies, dead or alive just as it
suits them, for the medical colleges.
A coffin and skeleton were chalked on

—Mr. Henry J. llill met at Frank

farm from tlie springs, and Hie Doc
tor was so much delighted with tlie
placo that ho offered Mr. Hill $20,000
for it. Jfut the latter put his liguers
at $30,000, and wc believe it the Doc
tor bad agreed to that price Mr. llill
would have been iotli to part with liis
magnificent sarin.
DKATII OS' HIM. ItOUEItT lOOMtIS.
Last Friday telegrams were re
ceived here stating that Mrs. General
Toombs had been stricken with para
lysis at her summer home in Clarks
ville, and each succeeding day dis
patches brought the sad news that
she was gradually sinking and that
death was near at hand. She died
Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock, and
her remains were brought here AVed
nesday evening. That night they res
ted for the last time in the old homo
that she loved so well, and which her
life had -o beautifully graced.
Bishop Fierce, the life-long friend
of tho family, conducted the services
at tho Methodist cliarch yesterday
morning, and delivered a discourse
from the account given of the sending
for the Saviour when Lazarus was
siik. He dwelt upon tlie thought
that the death ami raising up of Laz
arus was for tlie increasing of the
faith of Ills followers. He spoke of
the early conversion and lifelong de
votion <>( the deceased to tlie church ;
said that her religion was principle,
not sentiment. He urged his hearers
to follow her beautiful example as
she had followed Christ. Said that
he had seen Mrs. Toombs in Wash
ington City in the presence of the
President, cabinet officers and foreign
ministers, and that they all delighted
todo her the homage so well deserved
by her noble womanhood. lie
quoted these lines:
None knew tier but to love her,
ftoiie named I cr but to praise.
Through all her long life this place
was always the home of Mrs.
Toombs, and no woman ever more
greatly endeared home and friends to
herself by the loveliness of her true
womanly character than did she.
She was married fifty-three years
ago, ami ever proved a meet compan
ion for her illustrious husband; and
the brightest page in tlie biography of
General Robert Toombs will lie tho
one that comes nearest lolling of his
undying devotion to his noble wife.
Her loss is one that our tornniu
ty can ill-sustain, bu t the kindly mem
ories of her charities of heart and of
hand will he her most enduring mon
ument.
General Toombs looked as if the
bereavement were greater Ilian lie
could boar—the light of ids life was
shut out forever from this World.
Siany were the tears that were min
gled with liis oyer tlie grave of tlie
departed.
Mrs. Toombs was buried in the fam
ily burying ground four miles out in
the country. The following gentle
men were the pallbearers: Judge
AT. M. Reese, Messrs. C. A. Alexan
der, W. A. Rope, C. K. Irvin, J. W.
Sanders and F. SI. Barnett.

A Historic Chair.
Speakiug of old and historic, chairs
Gen.B.W. Heard of this place, has one
.that leads in the procession. A
Scotch colony settled on Broad river
in tilts county in 1756, and they
hi ought this chair from Scotland with
them, li was the property of John and
Ilollman Freemaujlie palroons of tho
colony, and they used to sit in it at tho
meetings that were held in the gov
ernmontof the colony. A Mr. Ilillyer,
the grandfather of Judge Ilillyor of
Atlanta, and Dr Ilillyer of this place,
married a Miss Freeman, and the
chair passed into tlie Ilillyer family.
The Judge and the Doctor belli say
they remember it. AVlien the Ilill
ycr’s moved to Athens this chair be
came tho properly of Powhatlau B.
Thurman, who used to represent this
county in tho legislature in tho early
part of tlie century. In 1828 ho
moved to Mississippi and sold the
chair to Mr. Garrett Oglesby,
Hie grandfather of Mr. T. K.
Oglesby who is well known in this
county. He died in 1815; tlie year af
ter at the sale in settling up tlie es
tate, Gen. Heard bought tlie chair.
It is now in the room in this place*
where tlie last Confederate cabinet
meeting was held.
The chair is a straight one with:
arms, is cushioned with, leather and
is in a perfect state ot preservation.
PoMtagc Stamps.
Tho green three-cento, pos
tage stamps, which go out of
use on and after the first day of next
October, will have had a run of thir
teen years. It succeeded tit# short-lived
palo blue thrcc-ccnt stamp, which su
perseded she red. The first two-conl
stamp was printed iu 1863, and bore
tlie face of Jackson. As after Octo
ber Ist, the two-eent stamp will be
the most used, and tlie thrcc-ccnt will
disappear, it is thought fitting to give
tlie new one tlie face of AVashington.
Tlie Postmaster General lias selected
metallic red as tho color of tlie new
two-cent postage stamp. Tho vignette
which will he used on the stamp, is
copiid from the life cast used in mak
ing Houdon’s statue of AVashington.
Tho issue of 1871 was of twenty-four
denominations of value, ranging from
two cents to SOO, tho most expensive
ones being for use by news agents and
publishers in forwarding matter in
bulk.
Our Cwitoii Shipment*.
The cotton year ended with last
Friday anil during that year Hie ship
meats from tliin point ran tip to the
handsome figure of 18,103 bales,
which is by far tho heaviest shipment
ever made from AVashington. Con
sidering the fact thut all other crops
raised the same year wore correspond
ingly large, this imlicalcslhat AVilkes
comity lias made strides toward pros
perity that will long be fait. Tho
heaviest previous shipments were for
the cotton y ear ending with August
31, 1881, which were 14,186 bales.
A great boast was made of tiiis bO'
cause we had never reached that fig’
tire before; but now we exceed it by
nearly 4,000 halos, and in a year too
when cotton was not tlie all-absorbing
crop. AVe are still progressing.

“Yes, that’s beautiful, pathetic and true,” aaid

who are aomehow HiipprftHfleU, and never get their

of a letter shown n.e the other day by Hihcox k Oo. f

“•Ihave suffered with asthma for over forty

me to take Paukf.u h Tonic. I did so, anti the ftrat

That night I slept u* if notning wuh the matter with

This preparation, which haa heretofore been
known as Parkeu’m Otngkb Tonic, will hereafter
be advertiaed and sold under the name of Pa

important ingredient, and unprincipled dealers are
constantly deceiving their customers by substh
tilting inferior preparations under the name <A
ginger, wo drop the misleading word.
There is no change, however, iu the preparation
