No sooner had the family fight, mentioned yesterday. “ n( ’ l “ cr ’ finally as mixed occurred, throwing that part if the city into considerable excitement, fhe light occurred just below the railroad bridge it the foot of Bridge Row. It seems that Alex. Miller and Wright Ken edy commenced the quarrel at the latter’s muse about a red rooster. Kennedy threw an ix at Miller and the latter ran and was pursued iy Kennedy, who cut Miller, or Miller’s coat, with a knife, inflicting only a slight wound. About this time' Alex. Minor, Jas. Walker and Mack Miller appeared on the scene, and Minor umouneed his presence by stabbing Mack Miller in the left breast, inflicting a dangerous wound. Then another of the Miller family, Fortune by name, put in an appearance, and after chasing Minor across the Augusta rail road bridge, emptied the contents of a double barrel shot-gun into Minor’s neck, making a considerable hole therein. Minor rallied, how ever, and instead of retaliating on his assailant, turned on Jim Walker and shot him through Hie thumb. The affair then stopped and the combatants laid back on their ears.

Our agricultural interests are paralyzed (iinsi quent upon a partisan warfare made upon the laboring classes who bare been driven to And homes, in a distant land ; our commercial and manufacturing interests have almost been brought to a stand still through the baneful influences of political strife, and through the manipulations of crafty ami designing cliques and Kings the people have been reduced to an object servitude which makes a mocking of freedom and puts patriotism to the blush. Believing that every man should think and act for himself, independent of political mas ters and tradesmen, be it therefore Resolved, That we, the colored voters of Bibb county, for the perpetuation of kindly relations with all mankind, do hereby ignore parties in the couiiug contest for the election of county officers. Resolved, That we will, regardless of party differences, unite with our White fellow-citi zens in the. support of such men for position as are qualilied to discharge faithfully the duties imposed upon them, and inasmuch ns wp only require the selection of honest and qualilied officials, wo respectfully ask the co-operation of every voter in support of the People’s can didates.

AnVEHTIHEMENXS nOLICITKI*. CAREY W. STYLES, Proprietor. 89 THE I'HI.IIII V WEEKLY. IT Is universally conceded that advertising is J a necessity to success in business; it Is also conceded, by the shrewdest buslnesa men, that newspapers are the best medium for reaching all parties whose trade Is desired. TIIE MONROE ADVERTISER reaches more of the people trading with Mu con than any other Journal published in tin country; it is, therefore, the bent medium of communication with tiie planting interests. W* will be happy at any time to furnish refer ences to leading merchant* here and elsewhere, who will testify to the fact that they have re ceived orders lor goods from parties who read their curds In Thr. Aiiucrtiner. Jn fuct, many who have availed themselves of Its columns, candidly say that Its value exceeds that of all oilier journals in which they are represented. l’h* Adtiertiur has the freshness of youth and the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly successful. CHARACTER OK ADVERTISEMENT*. No advertisements are admitted whieh arc not believed to be übove question and of real value, and from parties so unquestionably re liable that the readers of The AdvertUer will tie safe in ordering them from any distance. To our readers, the fact of its appearance here has all the weight of endorsement and authority. Address, JAS. P. HARRISON, Forsyth, Georgia. Change of Schedule.
