GA.i OCT. aa 1878.
Piano. —See notice of piano for sale.
In Town.—Colonel Henry P. Farrow is in
the city.
IfrlM DOST Laid.—A slight sprinkle laid the
dust very well this morning.
Thanks. —Mr. R. M. Johnston, of the Bain
bridge Sun, will accept our thanks for a picture
of his good-looking self.
Simons.—Simons so far recovered from the
effects of the laudanum taken yesterday for the
purpose of committing suicide, as to be able to
stand his trial this morning.
Bound Over.—Al ex. Jeffers, who stole $5.90
from a room-mate at Basset’s Hotel, last night,
was brought before Justiee Coxe this morning,
found guilty, and was bound over to the next
term of the Superior Court. f
New Dress.—We have neglected to speak o
lour esteemed contemporary, the Savannah Ad -
vertiser, since it donned its new dress, and
treated its charming self to anew and beautiful
head. We wish it prosperity.
Mayor’s Court.—Arcliy Graham, drunk; j
$5 and costs.
•• Alex, Jeffers, for stealing $5 and a few cents
from a bed fellow at Bassett’s (colored) Hotel,
was remanded for h w arrant.
Registration.— Every voter iu the city
should register. Some tiiink that in register
ing for the charter election they registered for
the city election. Not so. Fvery voter must
re-register.
Death or John J. Riley.—The King of
Terrors claimed this old and universally be
loved citizen of our county yesterday, and as
this paragraph is read, his body is under the
sod of Rose Hill.
He was the brother of our former Judge Or
dinary Wm. M. Riley, who preceded him to the
grave three years ago—both victims of that
ever fatal disease, consumption. So surely as
the good have their reward, he is to-day in that
land “undimmed by sorrow, unheard of by
crime, the house of the just, and its name is
heaven.”
A lleavt Jobbing Trade. —One would he
astonished at the amount of trade carried on
by our friends of the New York Grocery Store,
Messrs. Putzel & Jacobs. They know how to
supply the Macon as well as the markets of our
adjacent little towns, and from their liberal use
of printers’ ink, have the heaviest sort of trade.
Their stock of groceries is complete. In their
line of confections, they have the nobbiest and
most varied assortment of French candies ever
brought to the Macon market. Everything
they deal in is fresh, except codfish, and who
wants a fresh canfish!
Retail grocers could not do better than to
give our friends a call.
The Mystery.—Notwithstanding the fact
that both city papers sent special and reliable
reporters to the scene of the Appling county
mystery and furnished good reports, the public
are “doubting Thomases ” on the subject. It
is the BUbjact ef every body on the streets this
morning, nearly every body having some favo
rite theory of solving the greatest Georgia
problem. Some denounce it as a humbug of
the first water; others, like Francis Train,
pronounce it a “frod,” and some believe the
whole story and more too. As for us we be
lieve’the singular occurrence to be a reality
but do not advance any reason for it. Several
prominent citizens went down this morning to
see “how it is themselves,” and if they do not
mind how they relate their stories their veraci
ty will be questioned and their characters as
good citizens assailed.
♦ ♦
New Precincts—A Wise Move.—We are
'i glad the Ordinary has opened new and conve
nient polling places in the city and in the coun
ty. This will prevent the great rush and crowds
around one little window on election days, and
therefore afford no excuse for disgraceful riots
H ft is Bimply impossible for one set of Judges
to receive properly the large number of votes
In one day which the county of Bibb and the
city of Macon can cast and do so correctly. As
many as forty-five hundred had been voted in
previous election*, and in the hours allotted by
law for them to be handed in, it is out of the
question for any one set of men to examine the
registration and tax books and detect frauds.
,We hope every man in the future will be
forced to vote at his proper place. In that case
the elections arc obliged to pass off quietly and
•fcaccably. It will break up these negro pro-
Bpasioos to the polls, which we complain of so
much and give every man, black and white, a
chance to east his ballot like a freeman, and not
by the order of a drill sergeant.
y Hopson's. —We were taken in hand yester
day by that polite and affable young gentleman
Mr Dennis Shehane and shown through the
extensive and magnificent rooms of this prince
Of dry goods men. The first thing that occu
pies the attention of the visitor is the large and
beautiful show windows, under the especial
control 'of Mr. Shehane, who alters and ar
ranges them every two or three days. The one
on the left of entrance is now tilled by several
beautiful ready-made ladies suits of costly ma
terial, and Roman scarfs, and men’s articles of
ornamental wear this fall. The next one con
tained a 1125 velvet aacquc beautifully trimmed
and many lovely .‘haul?, which we know are
often looked at by covetous eyes. From there
we were conducted to the second Btory, where
L we found a complete selection of ladies wear,

MORE OF THE GHOST STORY.
A Hog Appears on the Boards.
He Vanishes Like a Vapor.
A Sea Captain Takes a Drink.
The Devilment Continues.
From passengers, conductors and officers of
the Macon and Brunswick Railroad, who ar
rived in the city last night, we learn ttiat the
house of Mr. Surroncy wag yesterday the scene
of greater if not more excitement, than ever.
Curious people were arriving upon every train,
each one bent upon solving the mystery, and
all coining away more mystified than when they
went.
Mr. A. P. Surroncy, the owner of the house
and liis family, arc represented to be thorough
ly worn out with the strange occurrences and
the great crowds (looking to their formerly
peaceful home. They know nothing of the In
comprehensible mystery farther than what Ims
already been told—that their household furni
ture has been ruined or is every day being de
stroyed by an unseen power.
A IIOG APPEARS ON THE FLOOR.
From Conductor U. 11. Sharpe, of the Bruns
wick road, who came up this morning, we
learn that on yesterday whilst six or eight men
and women were sitting in the front or parlor
room, a hbg deliberately walked in at the door
and without showing the slightest signs of
trepidation, advanced to the center of the
room. Ever}’ one remained motionless—con
versation ceased —all eyes were turned upon
the strange visitor. The hog stood for a mo
ment, then made a short circle in the middle of
the floor, and after doing so walked into an
adjoining room. Every one followed it.
Whilst some were in the room, some in the
door hut all intently watching wdiat it would
do, it instantly vanished like a vapor or mi ap
parition, leaving its audience stupitiod witli
horror, witli no one able to tell how it escaped.
The windows were down and no means what
ever open for escape.
AN OLD SALT TAKES A STRANGE DRINK.
Among the numerous visitors yesterday was
an old sea Captain by the name of Burns, who
has been around the world three or four times
and who was determined to unravel the mys
tery if possible, or at least some portion of it.
Getting into the house, he was told of the
smoothing iron tricks and selecting that as a
particular object to watch, lie sat down before
it. He watched the iron for a long time with
out seeing it move, and getting dry lie longed
for a bottle of whisky which lie knew Mr. Sur
rency had in an adjoining room; no sooner had
he thought of this than the bottle fell at ills
side ; he picked it up and helped himself, set
it down and continued to eye the iron; it did
not move, but the bottle left as mysteriously
as it appeared.
THE CUTTING AFFRAY.
Justice’ Court.
Tue Fte-Gates Cutting Scium. —Before
Justice Sprinz yesterday, the case of Thomas
Pye for cutting Hal Gates, came up for trial.
The following is the sworn testimony:
Hal Gates, sworn : I was not bothering the
man ; 1 asked him to let me alone; lie did not
talk to me before. I was settin’ down taking a
nap when he cut me; jumped up and ran away j
from him when Mr. Abel throwed him away.
Cross-Examined: It was on last Thursday two
weeks ago; was taking a nap; saw Mr. Abel
and Mr. Holmes; saw him cut at Mr. Abel
twice after he cut me; never had seen hiui be
fore; don’t know in what condition he was;
saw him half an hour before he cut me; don’t
recollect speaking to him before; I had been
drinking right sharp; was asicep; can’t tell
what he said; he didn’t call my namo, and has
never called it that I know of; didn’t see his
face till he cut me; Mr. Abel was standing
’twixt me and him; Mr. Abel threw him out of
his house; didn’t know the name of the man
that cut me; wouldn’t know him from Adams’
house cat; I lay down on the floor and waited
till a dray hauled me home ; Dr. Holmes was
with me ; had nothing against the prisoner;
never saw the knife he cut me with.
Henry Abel, sworn: A man came in my house
aud left his team out doors ; I was hi hind the
counter; he asked me if I kept boots, aud why
I didn't keep them. He (Pye) commenced talk
ing about the election; I thought he was
drammy ; lie asked me for a dram, but I didn’t
give him one Prisoner then began talking to
Hal Gates; Hal told him he had no use for himi
knew nothing about him, and told him to let
him alone; Mr. Ilolmes then came in and we
got to talking; Mr. Holmes called toy attention
to the man that was cut,. When I saw Hal
badly cut I jumped and pulled Pye off. l’yc
hugged Ilal around the neck witli one arm and
cut him with the other; X scuffled with the
prisoner, and was frightened when I saw Hal
cat; I then went around the counter and got
my pistol and then Pye ran up the street.
Cross-Examined: Gates was sitting on a nail
keg In front of the counter; he sat there like
he was dozing; Gates and Pye were talking;
Gates told him to go away; did not rcc the
handle of the knife ; thought Pyc was about
half drunk at first; Gates had liquor in him
and was more drunk than sober; I saw Gates
drink in my house, but Pye did not; the police
arrested Pye and one of my sons; Pye made n
lick at me when I pulled him off' don’t re
member anything Pye said.
Wrn. JlolmeH, worn: When I went in the
store Tom Pyc was talking to Mr. Abel, I and
Mr. Abel then got to talking, and Pye went to
Hal Gates and said a word I don’t recollect,
and then went to cutting him; Hal went to the
door and Pye cut him twice more, when Mr-
Abel went in between them; he shoved him off
twice from Hal and told him not to cut a man
that way in his store; Pyc then cut at Mr.
Abel twice; X took him by the collar and
snatched him out of the door; he looked like
he was going to start towards me witli his
knife; when Mr. Abel went to get his pistol,
Pye ran, hut a policeman and Mr. Abel’s son
caught him.
Cron cimtintd; I never heard but one word
spokeD; knew of no cause for a difficulty;
Gates seemed to he under the influence of li
quor; Pye looked wild while lie was doing the
catting. Pye made no remarks after the cut
ting only that “ they needn’t hold him, he
wouldn’t run.”
After a patient hearing of the evidence Jus
tice Sprinz bound Tom Pye over in the sum of
SIOOO to appear before the next term of the Su
perior Court. In default of the required bond
he was committed to jail.

The Great Dry Goons House of 8.
Waxelbaum and Brother.—This mammoth
Dry Goods House is truly one of the greatest
in all the Southern country. We doubt if
there are many which are more extensive on
the North American continent outside of New
York and Philadelphia, and even in those
cities there are not many carrying heavier
stocks or doing a larger trade.
Occupying the centre of Triangular Block
running through from Second street, to Cot
ton Avenue, and from cellar to roof, there arc
live grand divisions to the establishment.
The cellars or ground rooms are used for
packing and unpacking goods for all depart
meats and for the storage of Domestics.
The right baud floor above is the chief whole
sale department, and here we find a ship load
of Prints, Domestics, Alpaceas of all colors,
Jaues, Bleaching*, Shillings, Stripes, Checks,
Ginghams, Fancy Dress Goods, Red and White
Flannels, Opera Flannels, Tickings, Brown
Coods, Corsets, Linscys, Poplins, and so on,
running through the entire catalogue.
On the left is the general Retail Room, and a
busy scene it always presents, morning, noon
and night. It would be much easier to tell
what is not in there than what is. It contains
among other tilings the largest stock of silks
in Georgia—some of ttiem running as high as
SflOOper pattern. Our ladies can find anything
there from an inch of ribbon to a cashmere
shawl.
The two floors above are set apart for ready
made clothing, boots, shoes, hats, shawls,
hosiery, gloves, linens, shirts, balmoral skirt*,
clonks, blanket*, quilts nnd notions ad infini
tum.
But it is useless to call every article by name,
it would take up half the space in our paper.
Dealers must go and see for themselves. A su
perficial glance makes one think there is
enough on hand to supply the whole trade of
Macon for months to come, and yet so great is
the trade of the house, it is necessary to send
off new orders for fresh supplies almost every
day in the week. Scarcely a steamer leaves
New York for Savannah without having con
signments for “S. W. .V 8., Macon.”
The Senior requests us to make the positive
statement as a fact that they sell at New York
prices.
Wc found tho house this morning full of
country merchants and citizens, and every clerk
just as busy as lie could be; nnd no wonder,
for such a stock as that will attract people to it
tiie dullest day in the week, and at this season
no one wishing to purchase will go by it.
A large capital, industry, tiie most scrupu
lous honor, and a long scries of years devoted
to the business, lias placed thi3 house in the
front rand of Dry Goods Dealers in Georgia. It
is known far and w ideas such and will continue
to be for a long time to come. oet9-3w

rpilAT all-important event, the election, having passed away, mid the “times that tried men's
hoiilh 1 ’ have merged Into the “ piping times of peace”; mill Winter boa been inhered lu

ing fuued away and the weather reduced to something agreeable, I have to announce to my nu
merous and beloved patrons that I have recently returned from an extended trip to New Yark,

Breakfast Bacon, Lard, Butter, Canned Fruit, Jellies, Pickles, Raisins, Nuts, Apples, Lemons,
Cabbages, Onions, Potatoes, Crackers Cheese, Spiced Hams, Bologna Sausages, and—well, it
would take me ull flay to write what I have got, and it would fill this paper so full that Smith
wouldn’t have a local for a week. It Is almost unnecessary for me to mention the fact that lam
prepared, as ever, to supply Oysters and Shell fish of all kinds, from a Crab to a Greeleyoyster.
The finest Fisti, fresh and on lee, Is kept by me, and sold at living rates.
In view of the fiict that the people of Maeon, und those visiting Macon, are determined to cat
whether they get anything good or not, I tiave prepared myself for the emergency, by making
ample arrangements to have my
