MACON, NOVEMBER 14 1871.
Db. Augustine iBvmo MoAxmne, of Talla
dega, Ala., died in Philadelphia, last Monday,
at tho age of fifty. Ho left his home some
three weeks ago—attended Presbytery at Tus-
hegee, and then paid short visits to his children
and relatives in Montgomery and Macon, leav
ing Macon on the 25th of October, after view
ing tho State Fair here, with which he was
mnch delighted. He went to Philadelphia to
m gratify a professional curiosity in regard to
some recent improvements and discoveries in
surgical and medical practice, stopping in
North Carolina on the way, to visit a son in
oollege in that State. In these jonrneyings he
probably contracted a cold, which terminated
his valuable life very suddenly, after his arrival
in Philadelphia.
Dr. McAlpino was a skillful and experienced
physician, engaged in a very large practice, a
ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church for
nearly a generation, and a Christian whose
cheerful and glowing piety diffused happiness
all around him. Every act and word were
moulded by deep religious feeling and princi
ple, and the whole manner of the man was as
guileless and affectionate as a child. How such
n man will be missed in his family—missed at
the bedside of the sick—missed in the church
—the prayer meeting and the social circle—
missed everywhere, a living embodiment of
the religion of his Saviour, we can sorrowfully
imagine. It will be > ead day when the people
of Talladoga assembS) to pay the last honors to
his venerated corpse.
The New Sedative and Its Dangebs.—The
London Lancet calls attention to the enormous
manufacture of the new sedative drug, chloral.
It states that it is sold by tons a week, and
quotes a letter from Baron Liebig, affirming
that one German chemist manufactures and
sells half a ton every week. Of course, no such
quantity is used in medicine, and the Lancet
seems half afraid that it gets into beer; but, the
London Spectator says, there is a simpler explan
ation. Taking chloral is the now and popular
vice, particularly among women, and is doing
at least as much harm os alcohol. The drug is
kept in thousands of dressing cases, and those
who begin its use often grow so addicted to it
that they pass their lives in a sort of contented
stupefaction. Chloral drunkards will soon be
an admitted variety of the species.
The “Miextabt Govzbxob” Stobt.—Else
where wo havo referred to the prevalence of
sensational stories at Atlanta, just at this time
and given our opinion as to the reason therefor.
The story of H. G. Cole’s being appointed
“Military Governor” caps them all, though,
and we are rather surprised at our Atlanta cor
respondent’s telegraphing such stuff. 'What he
wants and what we want is news, but that is un
mitigated bosh. One of Munchausen’s whoppers
would be as apropos. Let U3 have some ghost
of probability at least in our rumors.
Anotheb op Akebman’s Sms.—A Western
press dispatch says it is well known in Washing
ton that the mistake in the President’s procla
mation, by which Marion county, South Caroli
na, was put under martial law, instead of Union,
occurred through the bad penmanship of Aker-
man. The list was sent from the Attorney-
General’s office in Akerman’s handwriting. It
was satisfactorily deciphered except the word
“Union,” which all the experts in handwriting
finally dedided was MarioD, and so the procla
mation including tho latter county went forth.
Not a Doubt of It.—The World is inclined
to think that Grant’s martial law outrage in
South Carolina was inspired by a desire to keep
the monstrous financial rascalities of Scott &
Co. “in tho family.” We have not a doubt of
it. Whenever you hear from a loyl throat the
howl of Ku-klux, be sure that loyl hands have
been stealing more greedily than usual, and
that the owner fears he is about to be exposed
and made to drop out of line. Set that down
03 an axiom.
Bbotheb Bbighaxi on ms Tbavels.—A Salt
Lake dispatch of the Gtb, says a well known
Mormon writes from Beaver, October 31, that,
“Brother Brigham arrived here thi3 morning,
and after resting five hours, left for St. George,
on tho southern border of the Territory. Ho
was escorted by twelve mounted men of the
Nauvoo Legion. ‘I am told,’ says the writer,
‘that he has paid a final adieu to Salt Lake City.
The movement of Brother Brigham is greatly
agitating the minds of the people hereabouts.”
“Flora MacFlimsy.”—The total value of
dry goods thrown on the New York market from
1st of January to date is officially returned a
$116,424,615. “Cottons” and “silks” consti
tute the big items in the bill, and these, the
bachelors say, must be placed to the account of
Flora McFlimsey. But Flora may retort: Look
at tho heavy items for brandy, champagne,
cigars, tobacco and other things, in which she
is supposed to have little or no direct personal
interest.—N. Y. Express.
A colored member of the Texan Legislature
was recently seen with a roll of greenbacks in
his hand, over which he chuckled so loudly an
to attract the attention of a bystander, who
said to him, “What are you laughing at, Jim ?”
Jim replied, “You see that money ?” “Yes.”
“Well, boss, I just got that for my vote. I’se
been bought four or five times in my life, but
dis is do fust time I ever got de cash myself.”—

Direct Railway Connection Between Nor
folk and New York.—The Vineland Railway
has been finished to the Delaware Bay. This
brings New York into direct communication
with the rich wheat and fruit land of South Jer
sey and Delaware. It requires, It is stud, only
ton miles of road to be finished in Delaware to
give New York a direct connection with Norfolk
by way cf tho Delaware and Maryland Railway.
Nobth Carolina Cropping.—The Raleigh
Sentinel, of Saturday, says that Mr. J. T. Town
send, on the Cape Fear, near Fayetteville, raised
this year twenty bales of cotton, 400 pounds
each, and com and provisions enough to supply
him next year, with two plows and about three
hands, and this notwithstanding the drouth.
Chicago families of three persons receive
daily a peck of potatoes, three pounds of pork,

patch chronicles the first negro nomination in
the Northern States:

We hope the ladies will come back to a sim

that most of tho false hair they purchaso is

Silly Sensational Stories.
We are rather losing our appetite for this
sort of diet. Anything in reason wo do not ob
ject to, but baked beans for breakfast, dinner
and supper are apt to become a little monoton
ous.
\V o hear from Atlanta that there are a lot of
bummers in that city who spend their time
manufacturing all kinds of rumors about Fed
eral interference with Georgia affairs, and that
some weak kneed Democrats in tho Legislature
listen to them too much for their own good.
These are all devices of the Radical enemy to
paralyze Democratic energy and they should be
so understood. A good many of these reports,
if traced to their origin, would be fathered
upon men who have a personal interest in
smothering up certain investigations, the full
result of which might prove very disastrous to
them. If they can succeed in creating an im
pression that any measure is regarded as “revo
lutionary” at Washington, they are satisfied,
for they know there are some men in the Legis
lature who shy at Grant just as a horse blind in
one eye does at a stump on the roadside. Just
say “military government” or martial law to
them, and they are struck all of a heap. They
would hardly dare say their souls were their
own if they were told Grant and Akerman might
construeitas a “revolutionary”utteranco. Such
men have no business in the Legislature, but
there they are, and the Radical sensation mon
gers make their profit out of them accordingly.
In decency's name let us have done with all
this whimper and trepidation about “martial
law.” If Grant thinks it is needed to secure
his election, nothing the Legislature can do or
omit to do, will stay his hand. Let the repre
sentatives of the people of Georgia, elected as
freemen to act for freemen, wisely consider
what is their duty, and that ascertained, let them
do it without regard to what may be thought of
it at Washington or anywhere else. There are,
of course, considerations of public policy and
expediency to be heeded to a certain extent, but
the main point is to do only the things that are
right, and leave the consequences to care for
themselves. We counsel now, as we always
have, the practice of the most conspicuous
wisdom and moderation, but we demand for
justice equal deference. There is a happy me
dium between ruinous rashness and ruinous
timidity, which can always be found when
EougV for by men of brave hearts and honest
intentions^ Let the Georgia Legislature place
itself on that line and stand firm. Let its motto
be paratus etfidelis.
Tlie Ancients vs. the Moderns.
Harper’s Monthly j which, unlike the Weekly,
seems not to be wholly “a journal of [modem]
civilization,” in an article upon the character
istics of ancient cities, has the following:
Integrity was prized as the chief of cicic vir
tues. To make profit from a public office was
an unpardonable crime. Pericles boasted that
he had never increased his moderate inheritance
by a single drachma through all his long tenure
of office. Aristides was known as the Uncor-
rupt. In the purer days of Rome tho great
lived in poverty, and Fabricius cooked his own
simple fare. Cato was so careful of his honor
ihat he weighed and accounted for all the gold
he brought from the East. Regains, rather than
violate an oath, went back cheerfully to slavery
and death, leaving his family dependent on
charity. Of all the plunder of wealthy Carthage
he took nothing. Horace has painted, in the
grandest of his lyrics, the man of oonscious in
tegrity, who, intent on some noble aim, defies
the rage of tyrants or the clamors of the people.
Javenal and Tacitus, in deathless satires, hold
up to a degenerate age the rigor of ancient hon
esty. Lycurgus was for twelve years the con
troller of Athens in its last decline. Millions of
revenue passed through his hands, yet every
fourth year his accounts were audited, and were
found to be rigidly correct. At length, when
he was dying, he demanded anew examination.
The auditors reviewed his long career; his ac
counts were again declared perfectly accurate;
they were engraved on marble tablets, and the
Athenian controller died happy in the approval
of his own conscience and of his native city.
Fragments of the marble tablets, it is said, have
been discovered at Athens, and might prove in
structive for modem financiers.
Now let the “Journal of Civilization” give
the world a fair sketch of the political morals
of the last half of the 19th centmy, and tell us
wherein and how much “the march of progress”
has raised the standard of political integrity.
We heard a grave man yesterday predict that
the Presidential canvass of 1872 would hinge
upon a grand popular uprising in behalf of
common honesty and decency in the publio ad
ministration. Bat on a second thought, with a
puzzled expression of countenance, he added—
“That is to say, if the people havo not absolutely
lost all faith in, and hope for honesty in poli
ticians.”
In these words he illustrated the common
idea of the utter, shameless and irredeemable
corruption of tho government—of the total ab
sence of honor, conscience, rectitude and patri
otism which was inaugurated with the Radical
era of the public administration. And all this
has been the work of a single decade. Ten
years ago the Radicals tookpossession of almost
all the governments, Stato and National, and
the result has been an unfathomable deluge of
rascality.
It is true, some of the monsters floundering
therein are Democrats (so-called); but the Rad
icals created the element and set tho example.
They have introduced this flood tide of public
demoralization. They have so debased the pub
lic service, a3 to make it synonimous with cor
ruption, and it cannot be truthfully denied that
from their President down to the lowest func
tionary, all—all are the objects of universal,
popular suspicion and distrust. All aro believed
to be reaching after irregular and unlawful
emoluments, if not involved in more direct
breaches of good faith and sound morals.
How will this state of things compare with the
days of Pericles, “who never increased his mod
erate inheritance by a single drachom through
all Ins long tenure of office ?” How doos Grant
who has amassed a large fortune in two or three
years compare with Pericles?
Will the storm which is raging against State
and municipal corruption reach the great cen
tral seat of the foul disorder ? Will it affect
the tribe of speculators, gift-takers and pecula
tors at Washington ? Will it cleanse the great
Federal Augean stables ? That is the question.
But as long as the rank malversation and fraud
pervading the Federal Government is only a
matter of inuendo, joke and scoff by tho pub
lic press of both parlies, let us keep still about
“human progress and the wonderful advance
ment of the age”—because, the main progress is
in knavery—a shameless treason to all the obliga
tions of patriotism—the injunctions of religion
and the rights of the people.
The Cotton Futube.—We see the New York
Chronicle, reviewing M. Ott Trumpler’s annual
1st October Cotton Circular, has this to say in
some remarks thereupon:
On a future occasion we shall probably pre
sent our views on this point at largo. It is suf
ficient for us now to say that Europe will proba
bly get about 1,000,000 bales less cotton from
us out of the ooming crop; that this large de
crease in the supply of American bales repre
sents a larger decrease in pounds, on account of
the lower average weight of bales (says 375
pounds average next year, against 400 pounds
average this year), which will result from the
withdrawal of so considerable a proportion of
American; and,farther, that at present prices
European consumption must for the next twelve
months, shows an increase over the year cov
ered by the circular.
The Chicago Tribune reports that Secretary
Boutwell has agreed to recommend that the
Government erect tho pnblio buildings at
Chicago upon a single square selected for the
purpose.
The Elections.
The Northern and Western elections have
resulted in nearly a total smash of the Democ
racy. The Stato of New York is lost by twenty
to thirty thousand majority, and by almost
two-thirds Radical majority in both branches
the Legislature. The Western States have gen
erally increased their Radical majorities. New
Jersey has elected a Democratic Governor, by
reason of having put out a very strong candi
date, but the Legislature is stated to be Radical.
These results apparently open a clear field
the Grant Radicals for 1872, but they may pos
sibly turn out to be unfortunate in their con
sequences to that party. An excess
strength is dangerous to a discordant party,
while the mere hopelessness of success on the
part of the Democrats may induce combina*
tions dangerous to Grant.
In another view of the matter, these elections
are very unfortunate to the Southern people.
Construed, as they will be, as a popular en
dorsement of the tyrannical and proscriptive
policy of the Administration against the South
ern whites, we may expect to see that policy
carried out with a bolder and more relentless
hand.
We attribute these sweeping defeats to the
scandalous frauds of "Tammany Hall, which
very unjustly have brought odium on the Dem
ocratic name from Maine to Texas. It is true,
Tammany has stolen only a few millions, while
Radicalism has piled up publio plunder by the
hundred millions; but in the North and West,
Democracy had no strength against tho odium
of its anti-war policy, except as a party pledged
to reform and honest administration. When,
therefore, the strongest association of these
Reformers stood convicted before the world as
mere pnblic robbers, the moral strength of the
whole Democratic organization was totally pros
trated for a time, and it fell an easy victim to
the jeers and reproaches of its enemies.
A New Pyramid.
Hodge, Ballocb, Forbes, Stokes, Evans, and
Bullock—all Radicals, and all first-class devel
opers, are tho leading names added to the crim
inal calendar of the country within the past
month. Going back a little farther, we encoun
ter “Honest” Tom Murphy, the New York col-
lector, Hon. R. R. Butler, of Tennessee, Hon
Mr. Whittemore, of South Carolina, and many
otheis whose names came and went so thick and
fast that we cannot remember them. All these
patriots were members of the Radical party,
and some of them were high and mighty makers
of the laws they were so fond of violating. The
St. Louis Republican suggests that the admin,
istration organs go back through their files for
a year, collect all these names, and construct
them into a Radical “pyramid.” It would be
an interesting and instructive edifice; there
would be members of Congress, Governors of
States, customs collectors, internal revenue col
lectors, State claim agents, pension agents, pay
masters, special treasury agents, freedinen’s
bureau agents, each contributing a block to the
common structure, reared as a monument to tho
loyal party of the country.
Judge Warner for Governor.
Several of the Democratic papers are propos
ing Judge Hiram Warner, of the Supreme
Bench, for Governor of Georgia. If Judge
Warner would accept the nomination, we have
no doubt it would bo satisfactory to the people.
They would then be sure of an able and an
honest man in the Executive chair. Judge
Warner would fear no responsibility in carry
ing out his convictions of pnblic duty, and is
one who could never be driven beyond the line
of true public welfare. In the way of integrity
he is an ancient Roman, and Rings would stand
small chance while he held the baton.
The Savannah Republican.
The telegrams yesterday announced that our
late copartner, Colonel Wm. A. Reid, had pur
chased the Savannah Republican. We welcome
him back to newspaper life, and trust that under
his auspices the Republican will regain its
ancient financial status. Thirty years ago the
Republican, under the management of Locke,
was a great property, and there is no reason
why it should not be so again. Savannah has
more than twice the population and business she
had at that time, and can handsomely sustain
her present newspaper press.
“No Bleeding Martyr, bnt a Spavined
Rogue.”
The World has the best notice decidedly that
we have seen of the recent flight of the brigand,
Bullock. It is such good reading that we must
print some of it anyhow. Says the World:
His resignation is simply a confession of
juilt, and the fullness of that confession maybe
setter understood when it is known that while
his resignation bears date as if in Georgia he is
himself at this time and has for some days been
in this city of New York. Not only has ho re
signed his office to forestall impeachment, but
actually fled the State as if conscious that even
as the private person to which he has reduced
himself, the ordinary process of the court might
still be applicable to his case. Could a pismire
malefactor be compared to one of mighty mold,
this fellow is Catiline over again, not only
avoiding the Senate house, but taking to flight
from the city.
The envenomed temper in which he leaves
Georgia behind him is seen in the most villain
ous traduction with which ho seeks to bring
anarchy, distress and oppression once more
upon that ill-used State. According to his story,
Georgia intends, by her own unaided strength,
no doubt, to overturn the whole United States;
and to this he pathetically adds that if the office
he has just vacated should be filled by ono of
his persecutors, the friends and supporters of
the General Government would have no one to
invoke the Federal aid in their behalf, and
would be “handed over without mercy to the
assaults of their enemies.” The absurdity of
Georgia annihilating the United States Govern
ment single-handed is too great for serions con
sideration, and in what is said of the friends of
the administartion suffering from having no
Governor to call for help on their behalf, how
how comes it, if there is reported oppression,
that Governor Bullock himself never besought
that aid? The truth is that there is no such
violence, actual or meditated, as is hero alleged.
Not one thought in a hundred is given in Geor
gia to se cession, constitutional amendments, or
any other such obsolete topic of Federal politics.
The outrageous pecuniary losses of the people,
tho weight of their taxes, tho semi-dissolution
of the bonds of society by the license given to
crime by this fugitive Governor, whoso last
official act almost was to pardon a most brutal
murderer just about to be hanged—these and
other local matters have the publio attention in
that State. Upon these issues and none other
was Governor Bullock to have been arraigned,
and for fearbf any trial upon them abiit, evasit,
erupit, he has cast down his broken trunchepn
and skurried off, no bleedingmartyr but simply
spavined rogue.—If. Y. World.
The figures showing the receipt and export
of produce at New York for the first ten months
of 1871, compared with the corresponding term
of preceding years, are published. Some of the
loading items among receipts are as follows:
Flour, 3,001,000 barrels, against 3,234,C37
barrels last year; wheat, 21,847,876 bushels,
against 18,340,024 bushels last year; corn, 23,-
775,461 bushels, against 7,525,174 last year;
rosin, 412,142 barrels, against 450,507 lost year;
pork; 159,841 packages, against 94,560 last year;
cheese, 1,263,8S3.packages, against 1,227,867
last year; lard, 94,186 tierces and barrels,
against 62,200last year; whisky, 140,003 barrels,
against 164,788 last'year. Expor.sbeara steady
general relation to receipts as above given. The
export of tobacco, crude, is 101,500 packages,
against 78,432 last year
At a wedding reception tbe other evening, a
young lady unfortunately fainted. Grand con
fusion, of course, and an immediate rush of
four anxious admirers to remove the debris.
In their sonfasion they attempted to convey
the young lady up stairs feet foremost, whereat,
her sense of propriety being strong, Abe imme
diately “came to.”—If. T. Evening Mail.
THE GEORGIA PRESS.
Under tho head, “Effects of the Railroad Al
ready,” the Dahionega Signal, of last Tuesday,
says: '■
A Mrs. Butler, of this county, recently gave
birth to three children, all of which occurred
since this county gave a majority vote in favor
of tho narrow gauge being built from Gaines

The Atlanta Sun says that the sheriff of Lee
county has been there hunting for the murderer
Page, Radical member of the Legislature from
that county, but that Page has dodged him and
is hiding snugly somewhere.
The Sun also says that it is charged around,
“that the friends of ex-Govemor Bro wn are ma
nipulating to havo suoh a man as they like,
chosen to fill Bullock’s unexpired term, and
then leave Brown- to succeed at the regular
election next fall.”
We quote thi3 additional item from the Sun:
Death of a Stbangee.—Mr. M. O. Harvey, of
Hopewell, Muskingum county, Ohio, died at the
Kimball House yesterday, after an illness of
several days. Mr. H. was a young man of
about thirty years of age; had left home to
travel for the benefit of his health; had been
in Florida, but finding no improvement in his
health, came to Atlanta, where a sudden attack
of bilious fever prostrated him.
Gone Gluisiebing.—The Newnan Herald, of
the 3d, has a communication from Grantville
about the gold mines and tho gold fever which,
not long since, were all the rage in that vicini
ty. It says that for a time speculation ran high,
and money in largo sum3 was invested, machint
ery erected, pits sunk and an immense amoun,
of muscle expended—digging, sweating, sitting-
racking, drying—but now the bubble has burst.
The negroes have gone back to their cot
ton patches; bankrupts hunting for nuggets,
have departed disconsolate, and the great iron
hammers are as still as the rocks in the ground
they were erected to beat to powder,
We find the following items in the Griffin
Middle Georgian, of yesterday:
Singulab Case.—About three months since a
little son of our esteemed friend, F. A. Free
man, of SpaldiBg county, without any symp
toms of pain, and apparently instantaneously,
lost the uso of his lower limb3, and has since,
notwithstanding the efforts of his medical at
tendants, been entirely unable to move himself.
Has never complained of pain or other uneasi
ness. Is now endeavoring to accommodate
himself to.his misfortune by learning to drag
himself along with his hands.
A Rehabkable Lady.—Mrs. Elizabeth Still
well, of Spalding county, on the 3d of this
month, entered upon tho ninety-ninth year of
her age. In the year 1796, she was received into
the Methodist Church by the Rev. William Gaz
away, of North Carolina, this making her, as wo
believe, the oldest Methodist in America. Mrs.
Stillwell is still in the enjoyment of excellent
health, weighs 200 pounds, and retains in a re
markable degree tho facalties of sight, hearing
and memory. She is quite active and gives her
personal attention to domestic matters. It is truly
interesting to hear this mother in Israel recount
her recollections of the revolutionary war, during
that memorable time a resident of South Caroli
na. She is a living witness of tho cruelties of Tarl-
ton and Rawdon, and the patriotism of Marion.
Mrs. Stillwell resides with her son, John Still
well, a prominent merchant of Griffin.
Tho Star of yesterday says the Board of Di-
rectois of the Griffin, Madison and Monticello
Railroad held an extra meeting in Griffin on
Saturday.
The consultation was harmonious, and the
results highly satisfactory. The Board decided
to change the gauge of the road to the custom
ary gauge in Georgia, and making it a first-class
road in every respect; so that we shall hear no
more monthings about “ narrow gauge.” They
also decided to press tho work with the utmost
vigor consistent with the resources of the Com
pany. Major Jones has been selected as chief
engineer and superintendent of construction.
Over three hundred hands, and more than one
hundred mules and carts aro now• activoly at
work, and the grading is being rapidly accom
plished.
We find these items in the Atlanta Constitu
tion, of yesterday:
Imfobtant Law Suit.—A bill was sanctioned
on yesterday by Judge Parrott, enjoining the
sale of the Cherokee, formerly Carteravillo and
Van Wert Railroad. The parties are Overton
& Lewis, complainants, against H. L Kimball
& Co., et al., defendants. It is alleged and
charged that Rufus B. Bullock and Henry Clews
were partners of tbe firm of H. I. Kimball & Co.,
and also stockholders in the Georgia Railway
Contracting Company. The transfer of the
bonds of the Cherokee Railroad Company is also
enjoined.
Jackson, Lawton & Bassinger, and Henry
Jackson & Bro., Solicitois for complainants.
Outbage on the Geobg.a Railboad.—Yester
day morning as tho way freight train on the
Georgia road was coming in, some one at or
near the out at Hardee, two and a half miles
from this city, fired at the train, hitting Mr.
William Hamilton of Stone Mountain, son of
Colonel H. N. Hamilton, tho worthy track
raiser, in the right leg, inflicting a severe flesh
wound. We learn that Mr. Hamilton was sit
ting on a hand car in an open car with several
others. The report of the gun was heard, and
soon after Mr. Hamilton was found faintiDg
from loss of blood. The ball struck him in the
right leg just below the thigh. Tho wounded
man was conveyed to Mrs. L. A. Smith’s board
ing house on Ivy street, whero Dr. W. G. Owens
extracted the ball and rendered him medical
service promptly.
Death of Mbs. J. H. Lumpkin.—Wo regrert
to learn of the death yesterday morning, nine
o’clock, at Athoas, of Mrs. Callio Lumpkin,
consort of tho late Chief Justice Joseph Henry
Lumpkin. She was about 65 years of age,
revered and honored by all who knew her. Her
end was peace. Mrs. Lumpkin was the mother
of our News Editor, Colonel J. T. Lumpkin,
who has been absent for a week watching by
her beside. We deeply sympathize with him
in his irreparable loss.
Fibe.—Last night between 11 and 12 o’olock,
fire broke out in the old negro danco house,
on Line street, in rear of McBride & Smith’s
carnage shop. We behove it was used as s
lime house. That and several negro huts ad
joining were destroyed. The fire raged with
groat fierceness for nearly half an hour. The
engines were slow in getting to work, but when
they did thep worked well. Loss small. Origin
unknown.
Mr. S. B. Leak, of Griffin, who took the pre
mium at the Columbus Fair, raised 4574 bushels
of sweet potatoes on ono acre of ground.
A “lively little fight between two white men
on McIntosh street,” was tho only local itam re
ported in the Augusta papers of Tuesday.
Mr. R. B. Baxter, of Hanoock county, has a
pointer dog that cost 40 pounds sterling in Eng
land a short time since.
N. B.—Grant needn’t expect this pup as a
present.
Tho Sparta Times says a load of cotton passed
through the streets of Sparta, on Sunday last,
en route for Augusta, Ga. We understand that
it was the property of a planter living in Pat-
nam county, who, prefers to ship his cotton in
wagons, rather than have it carried by railroad.
The Savannah Republican, of Taesday, says
tho steamship General Barnes, which arrived
at that port Monday evening, brought 03 deck
aassenger3 a large number of Swedish and Eng
