tion, and that In such cases the remedy
for tlie errors coriimitted was by appeal,

as the riglits of the-Denver company will
cease under the. provisions' of the .act. of

then urifinish’ed, the court considers it Its
duty to afford the parties an early and

filing of a transcript it would hear the
motion to advance tlie. cause for consider
ation at the present term. . .....

In ;tliese days of railway sensations, tlie
Elberton Gazette is determined not to be
behind hand. It publishes th'a following
which would do credit to ;any-which even
“H. W.6.” could get-up: “The stirmises
arc “partly correct, that a certain myste
rious gentleman wlio- lias been about our
village several times in the past week, has
some connection with a now Western
through railroad' rorite: We have been
accorded' a ' confidential interview with
him, but' arenbt yet at liberty to make
liis statements public: This much we riari
make public: An early new route from
Chicago to Port Royal is being investiga
ted by the most evperienced engineers,
wlio are in the employ of; a company that
was instrumental in demolishing the Cole
combination. The route will certainly
take in Clayton and Elberton and Augus*
ta, and will certainly fiank Atlanta. We
trill keep our readers posted as far as : wri
can with prudence.” ‘ ’ f) -• ! i ;,: - y -

Says the Hawkinsvillri Dispatch: Cap
tain Henly, the agent, informed us yester
day ere-ning tha‘t the MaCOn'and Bruns
wick Railroad has done a heavier business
at Hawkinsville, the present season,- than
any year, within his knowledge, and lie
has been, connected, with the road here for
thirteen, years. He makes weekly remit
tances, and the aggregate:receipts for the
last four weeks have amounted to sevcii
thousand fire-hundred and, eleven dollars
and ninety-five cents, being an average of
nearly two thousand dollars a week. Bet

r i Savannah Mews: On Thusday night,
shortly before 0 o’clock,-.,a dastardly .at
tempt was made iby some vilfian to as-
sassinate Rev. Jolrn- Nesbct, colored, pas
tor ofjtbe:Baptist B.Lbieliem chmcbrhD
qated at the corner of NewHoustoii anil
Cuylecstreets, near theLaurelGrove cem-
eteny^r The church ;ia.situated on an open
lot, and just back of the pulpitis a large
window, through .which the form of thq
minister, who was in tlie pulpit conduct
ing the evening sendees, was distinctly
visible, the lights being jnslrover his desk.
The villain who attempted the foul deed
fired through this window, the shutters: of
which were closed at the time. The ball
passed through the hijuds and close by the
pastor’s head—so,close that he almost felt
it—and fell'to the floor; dfirforce bein
spent by the passage through the'glass ani
wood. The ball wa3 found to be a thirty-
two calibre, and was evidently fired from
a pistol. ‘ ,
• The pastor, recovering from 'the shOck
of this narrow : escape, stated' totliecOti:
S tlon, we are informed; that his life
men threatened by .some -parties, and
ho presumed this'attack had been made
by one of his enemies/■ ’
- A venerable colored member of the
church states that a certain colored indi
vidual is suspected, Arid efforts will be
made to apprehend him,' :^tfter the shot
was fired some'of the congregation rushed
out and caught a glimpse of a man re
treating id the direction of’he qdmmoiis
beyond, who had 'evidently come from the
rear of the church. ' • ' ' •. :
- In this connection we may state thrit
the residents in the.Hocality report that it
is nothing uriusual : to* hear .a nqfriber cf
discharges of guus at- riight, and'hdnce
those who,heard, the report-, of the pistol
fired at the colored minister paid little
lieed to it, and tlie attempted assassina
tion was known qnly.-to thbse ivhb'iriire
in the church. V 7;* "• -1 '«•-.*, "
