—Eggs are growing scarce and
beautifully less.
—The beauty of the woods is be
yond all description.
—Large numbers of fruit trees are
being delivered to parties in this coun
ty.
—What did you remark about the
coming of the melancholy days. We
see nothing melancholy in this line
weather.
—All whose timedseut, are earnest
ly requested to pay up their subscrip
tions. You will see your date wit it your
name on the paper.
—More than one hundred and fifty
dollar's worth of stamps have already
been sold at the post-oiHce since the
first of this month.
—The counsel for the no-fence men
are preparing their ease for the su
preme court, and will got it through
as soon as possible. They feel confi
dent that court will render a decision
in the matter before Christmas.
—A woodiock was killed mar Mr.
F. 11. Colley’s fish pond it few days
ago. It is a rare bird in this part of the
country, and very highly prized by
sportsmen. II is something like a
partridge in color, form, hut has a long
hill like a snipe.
—Frank and Xat Nelms, both col
ored, were up before Judge Wing
field yesterday, charged with stenting
corn from tlie field ot Mr. Arden
Evans. They demanded a trial by
jury, and their ease was put off to
the 29th of this month.
—Everybody is delighted with the
work that is being done on the new
Baptist church. Every part of it is
boingdone ill the most workmanlike
manner, and the building when com
pleted will he metropolitan in appear
ance, and a great ornament to the
town.
—Moving day in this part of the
country is .January Ist, about the
worst iime of the year that could be
selected. With the progress of mod
ern ideas moving day should bo
changed to a more propitious season.
But fortunately there is not much
moving iu this place.
—The dwellings that are built here
now-a-days always have a kitchen at
tached. The old idea of having the
kitchen a hundred yards from the
house, when servants wore so plenti
ful they had to he kept on the go lo
to keep them out of the vrav, has
been completely revolutionized, now
(hat-house servants are scarce.
—One night recently Mr. Parker
•Callaway caught l won I y-live 'possums
He. did not catch an old one and a Ibt
of young ones among the linmbor.buf
caught each possum updifferenf trees,
borne of them were young, hut all
were oi pretty good size. Mr. Calla
way Ims naught between ninety and
one hundred’possums this season.
—Large numbers attendeds the
services held at the dedication Of Ibe
Catholic cliureh in Sharon last Sun
day. The Ut. Rev. Bishop Gross
preached the dedieational sermon, to
(he gratification of the many who
had the pleasure of hearing him. Ho
is very greatly appreciated hv our
people for his learning and oritorical
powers.
—There was a large and enthnsi
aatie meeting of the stockholders Of
the Augusta and Elberlon railroad
on Wednesday. It was decided to
posh the work ahead as fast as pos
sible. Mr. T. B. Green of this place
was elected one or the directors. The
stockholders could not have selected a
more practical or enterprising man,
nor one better qualified for the posi
tion.
—The new cottage now being erect
ed In front of the Foreman house
will he a very neat modern looking
building. It will contain four rooms
and a kitchen, and the cutirc cost
when it is completed will lie between
thirteen and fourteen hundred dollars.
We hope to see this one, followed by
many more buildings of the same
kind. They are greatly needed, and
always rent easily.
—lt is thought by many that this
is the driest year we have had since
the war; bnt we have an illustration
that seems to prove the contrary. We
believe it was in 1869. anyhow one
vear near that time, the creek that
runs Rev. F. T. Simpson’s mill in this
comity, dried up cut i rely. Fora while
it did not run a drop; but this year
the crock has run all the while a suf
ficient amount for the mill.
—A tew nighfs ago a negro tenant
on one of Mr. T. M. Greens places,
ran otra bale of cotton to another ne
gro’s house a mile or twodistaul from
his. These two negroes were in col
lusion for the purpose of swindling
Mr. Green, hat a friendly negro gave
the information, and a man was sent
out who brought in tho cotton. There
was perhaps never a more snprfscd
negro than was this tenant when he
found the hale of cotton had been
hia>light in and placed to his credit.
Mr. Green in his usual good natnrod
way, refused io put the law to the er
ring colored brother; but told him to
“go and sin no more.”
—.lake tho well known colored por
ter at the Foreman house, liaschauged
his base. Ho once distinguished him
self as perhaps no oilier man, white or
colored, ever had the mor
al courage to do. He stood
being crossed by ids ntolher
in-law till he could stand it no longer,
and without a word, he took her by
tho nap of tho neck and following
skirls and pitched heront of the win
dow. His co-victims, the world over,
will agree that his movcmr.nls deserve
a mention in the public prints, and
that his name should be handed
down in history along with such her
roes as Alexander, Caesar and Napole
on.
—A few davs ago a negro named
Bill Jones sold a bale of collon to
Messrs. Maguire & Dillard. Tlie ne
gro carried the cotton the depot,
and as the custom is, had it weighed
and brought the weight ticket bfick
lo the men to whom he sold. Mr.
Dillard noticed that the figures were
badly made out and questioned the
negro about the slip of paper, but he
answered all questions satisfactorily
and allayed suspicions. The negro
was thou paid tor 365 pounds of cot
ton. these being the figures he had
handed in. The cotton was shipped
to Augusta and the factors there
made a return for a bale of 265
pounds—loo short. A the bale had
been billed to them at 365 pounds,
they weighed it very carefully and
wrote to Messrs. Maguire & Dillard
concerning the weight. The weight
ticket was then examined, and found
to be a forgery. The agent here 1-
wsvß slirops the biick of these tick
ets; and the negro tore off the agent’s
figures and*wrotc others on a piece
of the same paper. He was arrested
and committed to jail on a charge of
forgery. The educational training of
this negro is about a thousand times
ahead of his moral training. He was
very short sighted to say the least of
it,as any negro might have known the
discrepancy in weight would have
been detected.
—lt would amuse even the most
sobersided to be at the post-office, and
hear the same negroes ask for their
mail three hundred and sixty-five days
in the year* without getting even so
much as a printed circular. “Anything
here for Milly Thomas?” “No,” says
the P. M., Very promptly without
looking to see, for he lias heard the
name so often that anything to that
address would ueyer escape his mind.
He answers very good naturedly too,
for a man who has the same names
drummed in his ears every day of his
life for no purpose lit fact lie is often
hoard to say in bis sleep. "No, nothing
here (or tl at name.” Well, this is one
of tho privileges of freedom, and we
say letthe poor negroes enjoy it.
—Judging from the number of
agents here recently, the newspapers
are determined that our people shall
not be without something to read.
Tho people of Wilkes are great read
ers and wo are glad to see them sup
plied with a sufficiency of good read
ing. From the country weekly with
its local affairs to the great dailies
with their news of the world up to
the past few hours atid the weekly,
monthly and quarterly papers and
periodicals, tho public can find every*
thing Ilia* heart could wish for their
amusement, instruction and Ihe build
in" bp of a wonderful fund of useful
information. All these things are in
the grasp of the poorest man, and the
men who apply themselves in this
great university for an hour or two
each day are the men who takq pre
cedence in Ihe affairs of this word.
—Capt. D. B. Cade, who is now
working (he Salo gold mine brought
in three bare of gold bullion last Mon
day, and brought one to our offico as
a sample. Tho fire had colored the
upper surface hut underneath could
bo seen the great beauty of the metal.
It was very beautiful to see" and had
the full weight of eleven hundred dol
lars. There was an inexplicable at
tractiveness about its glitter and its
value. This is the seventh bar of
gold the Captain lias taken out of
this mine since the first of August.
Wc believe tho Sale mine is the rich
est goldmine in the South. It hits
always paid very handsomely. Before
Captain Cado took possession the
shafts aud drifts of this mine were
allowed to cave very badly am) it was
shino time before ho got down to ihe
richest veins; but now ho has struck
these voins and they arc proving ric.hcr
and richer as ho follows tiicin. It is
very encouraging to know that we
liavo mines of such value right at our
doors.
Be Sure Tour Slue will Find You Out.
More than two years ago Sam Davis,
Charley aud Clay 1 Shepherd, throe ne
rca who bore very good characters
their neighborhood, fell into temp
tation, drove oft' three or four cows in
the night time from Judgo Wing
field’s plantation, sold them and quiet
ly pocketed the money. One or two
of these negroes were employed on
the Judge's plantation. The coy s
were missed, and no negroes on tho
place wcrcmorejdeligent in tho search
for them than these very fellows.
Time rolled on, tho cow stealing was
nearly forgotten and the thieves dwelt
in great security, until it was acci
dentally ascertained (hat the above
named negroes had run Uio cows off.
Then the strong arm of the law began
lo reach out for them. Two were
caught and third taking alarm, ran
off. These two were sent to tlie pen
ctentiary.aml a few months ago, finish
ed serving out their terms. Charles
Shepherd, the father of Clay, was the
one who escaped the grasp of the law.
As nothing was ever heard from him,
it was taken for granted that ho was
clean gone forever; and ho doubtless
felt that the matter of several year’s
standing hud been almost forgotten,
ami that the danger was all over. Iu
(act Judge Winfield had about given
up all idea of ever catching Charles,
when last week he received a telegram
from Mr. Sam Edmondson, formerly
of this place, now living in Augusta.
He slated that lie had recognized
Charles and had him arrested. Oar
town marshal, Mr. I T. Irvin, went
down at and brought up the prisoner
just in time to be tried at the Novem
ber term of the court last week. He
was sentenced to the penitentiary for
one year, and doubtless regrets now
that he Jiil not go along with his fel
lows, so his time would have been out
before this.
Well, Ibis is the only way to sup
press crime—let neither time nor
distance, nor any other obstacle inter
fere with the execution of law.
An Attempt to Throw the Train Otr
the Track.
Bomo diabolical wretch tried to
throw the train offthe track about
dark last Sunday evening just litis
side of Sharon, it is only (lie most
unmitigated scoundrel who would try
Ip do such a deed as this. Several
fence rails were placed on the track.
The engineer saw the rails and blew
for brakes, blit could not stop before
striking them, though Fio engine did
not strike them with full force: Tf it
bad it would probably have beau
thrown from the track and several
Set-sons killed or seriously hurt.
onto of the rails were knocked off
and others broken in pieces.
The law dors not punish
attempts to the extent It
does successful efforts to commit
crime; but law is for (he suppression
of crime, and wo sec no reason why a
black-hearted viliian who would try
to throw a train off the track anil
commit murder by the wholesale,
should not be taken out and hung.
This is the third or fourth attempt of
this kind on our branch road in the
past few years, and it should be
stopped as far as it is in Hie power
of the Jaw to do it.
The officials of the road were tele
graphed to immediately, and they
went right to work lo find out the
perpetrator of the attempt. We sin
cerely hope they will catch him.

Wilkes Superior Court.
Last week we gave a report up to
the day of going to press. There were
no cases of great importance before
the court at the November term.
About fifteen civil cases were set
tled by the parties without going ts
suit.
Suttcn A Anderson vs B. O. Arnold;
suit on note; verdict for $140.00.
F. L. Wilson and Francis Sayers vs
B. T. Smith ; suit on note; judgment
for $146.00.
Z. McCord & Son vs N. T. Cameron ;
Judgment for $317.00.
Hilry Silvey (the little white boy
who killed his brother) was charged
with involuntary manslaughter,, hut
the grand jury failed to find a trite
bill and the ease was dismissed, VI
Ida M. Smith vs Albert Smith;
suit for divorce. It was ordered that
Albert Smith, whose wticreahpWliSme
not known, be served with notice of
suit by publication. ' - L
There were quite a number of suits
for divorce, in which negroes were
parties. In nearly every ease a verdict
was obtained, but it requires two ver
dicts at different terms of the court to
complete a divorce.
