Aaron At.pxoua Again. — Savannah
News: The Waaboo, Aaron Alpeora Brad
ley, was in conrt Saturday, and created
considerable diversion for tho spectators
by bis melo-dramstio speech protesting
against bia expulsion from the bar.
Ths Atlanta Phonograph is as bright
and shining as a silver dollar. We clip
from it this kind word for oar approach
ing State Fair.
This year tbeStata Agricultural Society
intend to make the State Fair, held at
Macon, the grandest of all former suo-
oesses. It is an institution that ehonld
be fostered and enconraged by all of onr
people, from the Savannah to the Chatta-
hoootoe, at.d from the mountains to the
seaboard. Wo are confident that Atlanta
-and the earronndisg country will be rep
resented by a large number of exhibitors
as well as visitors. Our good friends of
Macon and Southwest Georgia accuse ns
wrongfully when they eay tho North
Georgia Fair Aseoclation whs gotten np
for the purpose of breaking up the State
Fair. Our fair will be a valuable auxil
iary to the State Fair, aa many will tes
tify last year.
• PKonogjrapl\z On the 13th mst., the At
lanta Amateur Minstrels think of giving
'a performance at Macon.
Satannau’s Rising Frauen.—Mayor
Wheaton, on a late visit to Angnsta, gave
the following cheering information con
cerning the affairs of tho Forst City to a
reporter of the Chronicle and Sentinel:
We have funded np to this time §2,-
259,090, and the funding is now an as-
acred success. A great maoy suits on
coupons and bonds have been settled, the
parties taking the bonds under compro
mise offered by the city. In regard to
the payment of the interest on the 5 per
cent, bond*, the holder may be alwaya
certain of receiving their interest, and
the payment of interest may alwaya be
regular. In reference to yellow fever, I
would state that the sanitary condition
of Savannah makes it almost certain that
yellow fever will not reaoh ns, bnt of
coarse that is in the bands of the A1
mighty; bnt if we did havo the fever the
interest on the 5 per cent, bonds
would be paid regularly. Tho canse of
the decline of bonds in from the fact that,
large amounts. of bonds have been
bonght by speculators, and being in cot-,
ton they have had to force their bonds
on the maikeb for sale. I think the bonds
cheap and a good purchase; onr &ty is
improving. A great deal of bnilding is
going on, and real estate is slowly bnt
snrely improving. I look forward to a
bright and improved future for Savannah.
Angnsta people hold about $350,000 of
Savannah bond), and nearly all of these
have exchanged their 7 per cent, bonds
for the new 5’s under the compromise.
Savannah holders, without exoeption,
have taken me 5 per cent, bonds.
Stabbing Atfsult.—Chronicle and Sen
tinel i A difficulty oocarred yesterday

Last Thursday night, some scoundrel en
tered the premises of Gen. W. A. Quarles,
and, ont of pare meanness, with no other
motive than to gratify a hellish spite,

AiMoRsTBB.—Dr. J. C. Jones, of Xa-
bnn county, vouchee for the troth of the
following: In 1876 Mrs; Sarah Cawkins
gave birth to a child, or rather a mo*-
eter, which is vet living, and becoming
more monstrous every day. In some re
spects it resembles a human being, but
in every other particular it appears to be
onr ideal of the wicked one in miniature.
At its birth it weighed seven pounds and
measured nearly threat fees In length-
its body seemed tough and inclined to' be
soaly; its limbs long and the muscle
racy rigid; the fingers are great olaws
cod out oi all preportion with the rest of
fche body; the toes on one of its feet are
l ong and crooked claws; thacther foot is
cloven, resembling that of a sow, except
that there is one claw protruding^from
the hinder part of the foot. The face
sad bead are even more monstrous
axad hideous than that part just described.

ing on the lane, and whizziDg past the
lady’s bead, striking upon a box in front
of the store.. Aa there was no report, it
is presumed'the shot was fired from a
rifle or pistol, cr possibly from one of
those ’'abominable- “Alabama slings.”
The bail made a perfect hole through the
heavy plate glass witnout shattering it.
Whether the 6hot was accidental or in

possible to find tbe party who fired it,
althPngh effirts were made to that end.
It is to be hoped that the apprehension
of the individual will be accomplished

others to be more careful.

of contradiction, that we have the best
wool market in Southern Georgia. We
make no exceptions. There is more wool
Shipped from Alspaha than any other
point in the wool-growing. region, and

’ Bxv. Db. Nall.—A called meeting of
the Macon Presbytery is sitting at Qolom-

Nall for a dissolution of his pastoral rek-
tions with the Colambna Presbyterian
Chnrcb, with a view to bis accepting the
call of tbe Prytania Street Chnrob, Ns 1
Orleans. The commissioners from bis
present charge to Presbytery are, sayatha

and D. F. Willcox.
.The Presbytery will meet at 8:36

whole matter will be laid before the body.
Tbe New Orleans ohnroh will be repre
sented by commissioners, or . by a com
munication advocating their claims. Tbe
body has the power to prevent Mr. Nall
from going, bnt, on the other band, can
not foroe him to accept the call. 1
The representatives of the charity hr
New Odeons and those of the Presbyte
rian church of onr city will be beard, and
probably Mr. Nall will be asked for his
views, after which the decision will be
rendered. If it ehonld be to allow Mr.
Nall to go to New Orleans, the body will
then dissolve his relation with tbe chnrch
and have each announced from the pul
pit.
Dr. Nall would be^a great loss to the
Presbytery of Macon and the whole
State.

Oaths night that they were killed, they
were in an enclosure of less thatta quar

So that enclosing cattle with sheep is no
protection. I baa always counted largely
on this for protecting sheep. Among the
slain was the Southdown ram I bought)

Iz is stated that in Cobb connty in the
last month not less than 150 eheep were
killed by dogs.
A Pronounced Pdatfobh.—Sanders-
villa Courier: We are emphatically in
favor of taking the tax off of quinine,
potting a tax on dogs and embodying in
the orgwia law of th* State, a danse
prohibiting tho mannfaclnre and sale o!
intoxicating liquors in Georgia.
Bothering the Jury.—Union and Re
corder: Daring a recent trial, (not in
Bibb connty) antral juror appealed to
the court to know “if the lawyers could
not be stopped from bothering tbe jary.”
He had become bewildered in the mass
of technicalities and subtleties with which- -pconxed by goTernmcnt he ought to be

Monbob County Ahead in Wheat.—
Advertiser: This oonnty has lobg been fa
mous for Its productions, especially in
■mall grain, bat this year Monroe baa
beat herself. Wo have spoken of the
enormous yield in oats and also in wheat,
but now we oan tell of an acre grown by
Mr. John M. Collier which has recently
been harvested, and yielded 59 1-2 bush
els to the single acre. If asy oonnty in
the State can make a better showing than
this we say speak ont and here ie the
bine ribbon. Bat old Monroe, so long
celebrated for its productiveness, we don’t
think can be surpassed by any county in
the State.
We defy this to be buaten even by tbe
great grain growing West.
Death by Lightning.—Union and Be-
carder; A storm passed over Mr. B. Bax
ter’s plaoe in Hancock county a few days
ago, doing mnch damage to crops, fane
ing, etc. Daring tbe storm a bolt of
lightning passed down a chimney of a
hones on the place, killing one negro
woman, and two children and injnring
another woman.
Scubthing Even Better or :
Sahh Sort.—The same paper says:
Dr.L. S. Morse has an aore oI i<u.a
near his reaidenoe, within the corporate
limits of Forsyth, which was sown in
oata last faU. The land is low and flat,
lying immediately along the railroad.
The oold freezes killed ont some of the
oats, so that in some places tbe stalks
were several feet apart. He ont qnite a
number of bandies to feed his oow while
the grain was green. Tbe oats fell down
badly, eo that it was difficult to cat them.
They weie cat with a gram blade, and
the man who hazveated them estimated
that folly twenty bnebels of oats were
left on the ground.
In spite of ail these disadvantages the
yield pf the aore was one hundred and
thirty-seven dnd one-half bushels. This
is the largest yield we have ever heard of
and is simply astonishing.
Wny ehonld anybody say “Young
mac, go West.”'
Tremendous Wheat Coop.—The Re
corder says’:
The wheat on the ten acre lot of Mr.
Ohannoy Wright, tnrned'ont 347 bushels.
We *ould be pleased to bear from onr
farmers the result* of their wheat and
oat crtips. Send na the returns, and we
will cheerfully publish them. Mr.
Wright’s wheat would have made a much
greater yield than It did, had there not
been so muoh stalk. Ths Stalks were
nearly six feet in.length. Of course this
Inxnriant growth detracted from the size
of the heads and diminished the yield
very materially.
The Nature ot a miracle.
A priest, after vainly trying io explain
‘ nature pf a miracle to a doubting Irish-
a, suddenly stopped, Jdaked bun, and
aaked,'“Did yon feel that?” “Yea," said
tbe Irishman. “If yon hadn’t,” resumed
the priest, •• it would have been a miracle.”
Thus argument sometimes fails' to convince,
though every objection be folly answered.
Like stntbom are tbe few who yet donbt
the efficacy of Dr. Pierce’s family Medicine*.
Positive proof of merit has repeatedly been
advanced. Testimonials from prominent
ci izens in nearly every town in North
America have been pnbliahed, certifying to
the doctor’* honesty, and superior aaill
Why longer doubt? If afflloted with a oold,

w*y, Va., writes that he has thoroughly
tested Dr. Pierce’s Family Medicines in an
extensive praotioe, and has fonnd them to
poeseta superior merit, and to do all that
was claimed for them. He furthea ttys
that a copv of the People's Common Sense
Medical Adviser should be in every house.
Health op the Summer.—The Cin-
oianatt Commercial says tho National
Board of Health In Washington thick the
summer la likely to be haaltby,and sbonld
the fever oome the Eastern crop will be
more liable to suffer than the Mississippi
vallsf. ' '
hext week,' her doubted
whether, after adjournment, a quorum of
the committee could, be held togother.
Therefore it would b8 wall<eo'put in all
available testimony by thait time.
Judge Shellabarger said several of
Kellogg’s witnesses are expected to
!mhHow.: 1 Pwtoufcpeite tpydjiy. A
It was unanimously agreed by the
committed taut the nm'divits heretofore
offered to be admitted aa evidence.
Merrick said he would pnt in his doc
umentary evidence to-morrow.
Hill called up tho question of paying
Jules Lsveignes hie witness fees. He ob
jected to the payment on the ground that
the witness had said be bad deliberately
and intentionally deceived the parties
who enbpcoaaed him. The committee
should protect itself and the Senate, and
do nothing that would make it conven
ient for any man to come here at the ex
penee of the Goverenment and impose
on somebody by testifying directly con
trary to what he may have stated in an
affidavit or other form. There shonld be
protection from such imposition.
Neman remarked that he had never
heard of a rale to deny payment of feeB
of a witness who had beon-snbpconaed by
the Government. .Besides, if pay were
refused it would bo said it was for the
reason that the witness, denying the
truth of hie affidavit, swore to something
different.
Bailey remarked that v thia witness was
evidently a base and bad man and merit
ed the penitsntiary; yet having been sub
paid. .
' Ingalls said his impression was from
the testimony that the witness imposed
on Spcffprd’e attorney for the purpose of
di9cloeitfg 'a conspiracy, the purpose of
which -was to deprive Kellogg pf his sear.
If witness had not obeyed the snbpceca
he would have been amenable to con
tempt.
The chairman said the witness having
obeyed tbe summons of the committee
<»L _
marks were made by other Senators
when the question was taken on Hill’s
motion that Lsveignes be not paid, and
disagreed to—Hill and Vance only voting
in the affirmative, and Keraan, Bailey,
Cameron and Ingalls in tbe negative.
Hoar not being preeent when the disons-
sion took place excused himselt from vot
ing. The committee adjourned until to
morrow.
Washington, Jane 10.—In the House
Morrison, of Illinois, from the Commit

thonsand dollars for a monument to
mark the birth-place of George Wash'
ington. He remarked that the honse of
Washington's parents had disappeared,
and that nothing remained to ebon to
posterity where tbe father of bis oountry
was born. The Speaker aeked whether
there was any objection to the joint
resolution.
Garfield replied, “Nono on this side, I
am sore.”
There was no objection and the joint
resolution passed.’
In Senate, at-1:25 p. m. the Iegislt
tive, executive and judicial appropriation
bill wbb received from the House and re
ferred to the committee on appropria
tions.
The'concurrent resolution providing
for adjournment -on Jane 17tb, was also
reoeived and referred to the oommittee
on appropriation.
MaoMahon, of Ohio, re ported baok
from the appropriation committee the
bill making appropriations for oertain
judicial expenses ot government. It was
referred to oommittee of the whole and
the Honse immediately went into com'
rnlttee—ill general debate on the bill be
ing limited to forty minutes.
In the Senate Mr. Coke moved to take
np and consider the resolution discharg
ing the Committee on Finanos from fur

The resolution therefore was not taken
np. Senators Gordon, William?, Jones,
f Nevada, Hampton, Davis, of West

voted yes, were paired with Anthony,
Bell, Blaine, Batter, Windom, Edmunds,

Oa motion of Mr. Voorhees, the Honae
joint aecolntion providing for the ereotion
of a monument to mark the birth-place
of Gc-orge Washington was taken np and
passed without a dissenting voice.
Oa'motion of Mr. Bayard the Senate
then took np tbe bill reported yesterday
from the Judiciary Committee for the re
moval of the political disabilities of Mr.
James F. Harrison, ef Virginia, and after
soma remarks by Mr. Beok, it was poseed.
Billa were also pae38 for the same pur
pose in the eaee of Arthur P. Bsghy, of
Texas.
Mr. Call introduced a bill establishing
an additional land district in Florida, and
a life-saving service at Cape Bias, Flori
da. Beferred.
The Senate then went into executive
session, and afterward? adji.urned.
Senator Jones, of Florida, stated this
afternoon that he voted against taking
np Mr. Coke’s reeolation to diseharge
the fiosnoe committee from farther con
sideration of the Honse sliver bill because
after a careful canvass of the votes, he
believed the bill would fail to pass the
Senate, that ita defeat would be more
injntioas to tbe Democratio patty than
its postponement for a full coa-
sideratioii next December. He ed- ‘
ded that Lis views beretofo:e ex
pressed on the silver question re
main nnobanged, and that ho is entirely
in favor of the objects of the pending bill
At one o’olook the House went Into the
oommittee of the whole, Mr. Blsokbnrn
in the chair, and prooeeded to disouss
the bill providing for the Jadioitil expen
ses of the Government, the general de
bate being limited to forty minutes.- .Af
ter a few remarks from Mr. Beok, expla
natory cf tbe bill, Mr. Garfield Bald he
could not vote for it ; the clause referr
ing to title 25 of the revised statutes riot
ouly neglected to appropriate, but nulli
fied the enforcement and execution of
the laws. It was only an indirect way of
doing teiripomily for ono year what
Congress could not d& absolutely and
permanently. He also criticised tbe
olanse prohibiting the Government from
incurring liabilities for whioh no appro
priations has been speoially made, saying
that tbe present laws command the’exec-
utiva to perform duties whioh the. bill
forbid bim to perform if be thereby
inonrsany liabilities.
Mr. Garfield was replied' to by ' Mr.
MaoMahon, of Ohio, who -said that the
Democrats had uniformly voted for the
appropriation bills and the Bepnblicans
against them. That what the Demo
crats desired was to have fair and free
elections and to deprive tbe other side o
tbe power to put partisans at the polls.
Ee said his colleague (Mr. Garfield,) bad
got np a new catchword. A while ago
members of tho majority wero called
“Revolutionists;’? now they are “Nullifi-
crs.” The general debate then closed
anl the committee proceeded to consider
the hill by eections. On motion of Mr.
Finley, of Ohio,' an amendment was
adopted, providing that the names of ju
rors shall be placed in a box by tho clerk
andcommsBioner alternately ‘‘without’.re-
ference to party affiliations.” Many other
amendments were proposed, bnt all re
jected or ruled ont. The committee then
rose. The bill was reported to the Honse
and passed, yeas, 102; nay e. 85; a strict
party vote, and the House adjourned.

from three to twenty-five per cent

May, twenty-two favorable, twenty-five
unfavorable, fifteen too mhoh rain, ten
too dry, twenty-one too oold, and ninety,
two mnch more favorable than last year,
thirteen about the same, twenty eight
less favorable. The character of the
etande is fine; eighty-one reports never
better; in foxty-Beven good, five poor, in
82 much butter than last year, in 17 about
the same; In 24, not so good. The prog

Galveston, Jane 10.—The ootton ex
change reports of tbe cotton crop oon
densed from 76 repliea received from 43.
oonnties, bearing the average data May
31, show an average increase in the aore
age of ootton of three per cent, in the
counties heard from.
We have no repliea from many of tbe
largest oonnties whioh we have reason to
believe will show a large increase in the
aoreage, and we think it safe to estimate
tbe increase for the State at from eight
to ten per cent. The replica indicate
less favorable weather than last year.
One county reportB, the aland very goad.
28 oonnties report it good, while 14 conn-
ties report it as indifferent, five conn

two weeks later; nine counties, three
weeks later; and, one coanty, fonr weeks
later, as compared with last year
The condition of the orop on tbe 31st
of May ie reported good in twenty-eight
counties,and not good in thirteen. Labor
is represented os good and effioient, al
though there seems to be no surplus of
laborers. The State has not suffered
from tho Kansas exodas. Fertilisers are
not rued, In some portions the ootton
plant baa suffered from the late oold
epeUs,in consequence of whioh the plants
are rather email, bnt otherwise healthy.
A few oonnties report the plant as suffer

Water Works for Haems
Editors Telegraph A Messenger—Ths re
ton t ram has proved a great blessing not
only to our farmers and gardners, but to
those of onr oitlzsns who are dependant up
on tbs sosnt supply of spring water fornisb-
td by that sxosuent company tbe “Macon
Gab and Water Works Company.” For days
their supply has been exhausted and a very
great warn and inoonveoienoe has been felt.
This ha* canted onr reflecting citizens to
disease the propriety and feasibility of con
structing water works adtqoate to supply
every railroad shop, factory, foundry, mann-
tsuturing establishment and every house
hold in Maootx. as well as keep onr ci-terns
full and render unnecessary so many fire
engines. The erection of a tank bolding
100,000 gallons of water with pipes properly
distributed, would save Maoon between $50 -
000 and 9100,000 per annum in Insurance
alone. The percentage would be decreased
over one half its preeent rate, and fires would
be fewer and certain y lees disastrous in fn-
tore. We hear from good authority that the
.Gentral Railroad will food begin the erection
of water wo>ks for the nse of their railroad
shops which wilt cost over $15,000, and that
they are more than willing to sob so ibe that
amount m stock to a company which will
ereot works to heated by the entire oily. If
their willing aid is net accepted new, it may
never be reoeived hereafter. Let ua not
lose the opportunity. They will of course
p«y for every gallon of water they nse too,
and will use more than any one hnndrod
families. The Georgia Bailroad and Macoa
A Brttuawiox Bai road authorities would also
