Our cotcuiporury of tlii* morniuj l::- 14 a cou ple of line* purporting to have been writ ten by Mr. Hayne Elba, in which he de clines to run as Alderman on the Peoples’ ticked. We are reliably informed that Mr. Ellis and the rest of the peoples' candidates will serve if elected. . I'lirlatmaa And New Year will soon be upon us, and if we intend making any gifts to our dear ones, it is high time we were lonkiug around for some thing nice. To save the trouble of looking around, step into Brown & (Jo’s, and you need only to hire ahoy to carry your bundles home — yon can’t help buying after you once go there. Don’t fail to go and register. Time. \a short. The (Joining' FJection. The election for Mayor and Aldermen of our city is on next Saturday. We want everybody to vote, and in order to “sling a ballot’’ every body should register. Very little over half the voters of the city have registered so tar, though very opportunity is afforded them by the clerk. The office is open every night, and those who cannot get time to go in the day have as good a chance as anybody a! night. Register! IJditor-O fllcer*. We see the name of Dr. das. A. Damour an hminced as a people's candidate for alderman from the Third Ward. Truly our brethren of the quill are getting up in the world. There are two or three editor legislators, and an edi tor candidate for Secretary of State, and here we have au editor candidate for alderman. Well, the doctor has been a good Democrat from the word go, in fact he is one of the old fashioned Democracy, and no doubt will make 's good alderman. But we don’t like tliia way of making officers of quill drivers. It looks too looks Itoi> much like taking the pen out of their hands. Don't fail to go and register. Time is short- Jlleor Item*. The fine bay of Cpt. A. J. Whits, died of tlie Epizooty yesterday. Hayne Kill* Eeq, declines municipal honors. The snow still remains on untravcled ground and house tops. If you wait to see your favorite candidate elected go and register. PuUel ft Jacobs, the grocers, have just issued a beautiful calendar for next year. If housewives who contemplate making fruit cake for Christmas would buy the Sultana rai sin from Greer, Lake & Cos., they would be saved all the trouble seeding their raisins. It is reliably reported by those who are sup posed to know that Christmas is coming. A man of awl work—the shoe maker. The upper end of Mulberry Street has been well graded and greatly improved in ap pearance by the energetic street overseer. Ox teams are common things in omr city and the epizooty still rageß with unabated fervor. Dr. W. Watkin Hicks left this morning for Augusta. Don’t fail to go and register. Time is short. Christmas i* Coming. And those liro young merchants on the East front of Hollingsworth Block, lloge A Steph ens, are fully prepared to furnish uur citizens with every article necessary for its enjoyment. The stock Is so made up with good things to eit that we can come about as near describing it as the Irishman did in quoting Latin : “Dune nvlniux, itvimus, Erin go Unum E Pluribit* llragh." Fat Turkeys (both live and dressed) from Tanness ce, large fat Chickens, witli Cedar Keys oysters and cranberries as “accora paning documents,” fresh Fish from the fresh wstcr streams of Georgia, Apples from New England, Oranges and Lemons from Florida, Gundy made by M. K. Rogers, Tropical fruits from the West Indies, Canned Esculents from the factories of Baltimore, Sugars from New refineries; Pecans from Texas, and a special as -ortment from the world at. large. In view of all those things, what is the use of going to Texas to eatthis or any future Clu-ist nws dinner'/ % TKKBIIII'K ACCIOKIT. A WOMAN BURNED TO DEATH THE CHARRED REMAIN? A mot horrible Accident happened in Last VI iron yesterday afternoon about 4 • clock, aft-r the Enterprise had gone to preaa. A widow lady named Mia. Matilda Hernan dez was actually burned to death with no one in the houaa to reader the slightest help. The particulars, as near as we can get them, are a* follows : She waa left at home alone, by her daughter, who had gone to make a riit to some of her neighbor*. When the daughter left, her mother, in her ueual health, was sitting before the fire. The daughter was out some consid erable time, and when she returned she found iter mother dead—haring been burned to death. How she caught fire cannot be known, though it is sujyposcd that she had a fit and fell for ward into the fire, though she is not known to huve been subject to fits of any kind. When f>und. her clothes were nearly all burned off her. and her face and all the upper portion of her body were literally roasted to a black, hard '•risp. Her stomach was also burned until her bowels protruded, and her hands and arms burned until they were shapeleae. In the charred condition in which she was found no one could hare identified her. The poor woman mast hare bad a terrible struggle with the flames. How she came to be burned will remain a mystery. Her son, Joseph Hernandez, hac been a news boy at the Telegraph office for many years, and waa supporting his mother tad sisters with bis little gains. blow falls heavy on him. TIIH MAIOH'S COintT. HON. W. A. HI’FE rRESIDINU. Mary Blount endeavored to sharpen her wits with the blowing fowl, lmt heeiuuo so tired that aha had to sit down on the streets. Officer Alloy came along and kindly offered to escort bar to better aecominodatlone. Flu- ones 1 lie usual fee—ss and costs. Two young men thought Christ nas had ar rived, and determined to celebrate the event by a knock down fight. Not wishing to sec the glorious time celebrated in eurli a manner, his boner piled on the agonv to the extent of 110 and costs. James Gardner hails from the Mils ami vales of Twiggs but not having nothing special to do, come to town to while away ths happy hours. While roaming around in maiden meditation fancy free he espied a young man, iike himself from the country, purchasing boots and other little tricki. Making known his intentions to a confiding confederate, the two walked in a store and while Gardner attracted Greeny’s attention, away went the boots. After a boot less search, the confederate was not found but officer C'ittig soured on Gardner and be pays $5 and costs or singe “I’m lonely to-night, lore, without thee" on the street* for the period of 30 daye. John Jackson undertook to diseHss the cle tion without keeping iober. The usual result of such ridiculous attempts, and Johunir pays the city the sum of #3, which will tie collected by offl 'cr Martin. The cars ot Andrew Baity, for stealing, was continued. Peter Hogan is u nice young mau w ho worked for Mr. Milo Freeman t ids coal yard. Peter was paid well for his labor but he would manage somehow or other to take a little handful of coal, say 150 pounds, every now and theu. Mr. Freeman didn’t mind losing a ton of coal every two or three days, but he didn’t like to stand out in the cold looking at him take it. For this black deed, Peter repented and (5 and cost 6 will till up the yawning gap in ilia con science. The case of Bill Haywood and (Jbas Harris, charged with fighting, was continued. And thus the Court closed the docket with a slam and ye reporter snuffed his nose and left .lualit-e ■ Cosii-I. Before Justice Sprinz this morning, the case of State vs. John W. Dodge for perjury was tried. E. H. Karmau and A. Proudflt, Esqs., appeared for the State aud J. B. Woems and C. YV. Howard, Esqs. for the defence. Several witnesses testified, nml some discussion fol lowed. It was the opinion of the Court that the evi dence on the part of the State was not suffi cient to warrant a committal of the prisoner, therefore he was honorably discharged.
