BLOODY BOW.'
An Unfortunate Wind-ap of a Colored
Harriici in Mljb Ufe.
On Wednesday night there was quite a
little flutter in colored circles oyer a pros
pective marriage at the Cotton Avenue
Baptist Church, in which Lizzie Joseph
and J. Wesley Smith were the high con
tracting parties.
Just as the officiating ebon devinc, who
rejoices in the name of Williams, was
uniting the bonds in the most approved
manner, some one knocked or pushed a
woman by the name of Jones off the back
of a bench. At the same time, Charles
Durham was seen rapidly leaving the
church. He was supposed to be the par
ty who had knocked the woman dowD,
and was set upon by several darkeys
In his haste he knocked against a col
ored female who was with Forest Williams^
also colored. This was resented by the
' said Williams wiio drew a dagger and
proceeded to mutilate the body of the said
Durham. A general row ensued in which
nearly the whole congregation joined and
lasted for ever a half hour. Some ten or
twelve pistols were drawn and flourished,
fists struck out freely, and altogether
matters looked lively enough. -
One or two of the police rushed in were
powerless to do anything, and so pinioned
by the crowd as to make it impossible for
them even to raise their clul)3. At last
the churchwas cleared and the row ended.
' It was fonnd that Durham had been se
verely cut in the back and side. Williams
was arrested at the house where
the wedding festivities were being carried
on. The crowd of darkeys he was with
-defied the police to take him, but through
the prompt action of Lieutenant Hurley,
seconded by officers Wrye and Stephan,
he was lodged in the barracks.
During the melee a darkey threw a
brick at Officer Bayfield, who emptied a
charge of his revolver at him in return.
The whole affair was very disgraceful.
Royal Arcanum Banquet.
At ten o’clock p. m., Anchor Council,
. of Macon, with their invited guests, as
sembled at Ayers’ Hall, where a bounti
ful repast had been prepared in the well-
known style of that Prince of Caterers,
Mr. E. Isaacs.
• Before proceeding to discuss the good
things so temptingly displayed, Mr. Ro
land B. Hall, of our city, was introduced,
and delivered the following address of
welcome:
.. .Supreme Regent, and Brethren of the
Grand Council of Georgia:' In behalf of
• Anchor Council No. 145, it becomes my
pleasant duty to welcome you to our city
and its cheer. To say that we bid you
welcome, but feebly represents our senti
ments. Our hearts go out to you in
warmest friendship and fraternal sym
pathy. We greet you as the builders of a
. foundation, for the erection of a vast and
mighty structure, which, ere long, shall
rise in beautiful symmetry and graceful

for him ■
Wlo-o duty nob?? done.
Qu li. by merit woo.
the bright radiance of which shall dis
pel the dark haze which surrounds, and
guide to a safe anchorage the voyager on
the dangerous and uncertain sea of Life
Insurance, where his bark may rest in
calm and peaceful security. This noble
edifice is destined to withstand the de
structive powers of man, and the decaying
hand of time. Ages yet unborn will wor
ship at its shrine, and bow in homage at
its grandeur and its glory, reflected from
its beneficence, while it will remain the
fountain of hope, and cheer the frail wid
ow and the helpless orphan.
We congratulate you upon the success
ful termination of your labors. Wethank
you for the honor conferred in selecting
our city to hold your council. Again, we
cordially welcome you to our midst, and
the hospitalities of this occasion.
After full justice had been done to the
choice array of viands, Mr. R. H. Flan-
• ders, as Master of Ceremonies, announces
the following regular toasts, which were
eloquently and appropriately responded to
by the several gentlemen:
Supreme Council Royal Arcanum—Ju
lius M. Swain, Supreme Regent.
Grand Council Royal Arcanum of Geor
gia—Frank G. Ford.
Secret Beneficiary Societies Generally—
Dr. J. Emmett Blacksliear.
The Press—H. H. Jones. ...
Ladies—B. H. Richardson.
Absent Members of the Order—Dr.
Wm. King. . -ii
The speakers all acquitted themselves
with distinction. The remarks of Mr.
Swain, of Boston, were replete with infor
mation in regard to the order and full of
broad and generous sentiment of fraternal
regard.
Dr. Emmett Blackshear’s.remarks were
beautiful and appropriate, as were also
those of Mr. Starr, of Augusta, Mr. Man
nerly, of Waynesboro, and Mr. J. W.
Black-shear, of this city. Colonel Jones
evoked hearty applause in a speech of ten
minutes.
Alter the conclusion of the speaking,
many beautiful sentiments were given and
felicitous responses made. At the witch
ing hour of twelve, after a most enjoyable
occasion, the party adjourned. The ban
quet of Anchor Council may be set down
as a perfect success.
—The Duke of Wellington was once
refused admission into the Commander-
in-chief’s office by a soldier new to Lon
don; while Queen Victoria’s predecessor,
William the Fourth, was kept waiting out
side a certain part of Windsor Castle
through an official’s ignorance of the roy
al identity. “You can’t pass, old-un,”
said he,” “nobody’s allowed to pass here
after dark except the King and the lamp
lighter.”
BOYAL ABCAM .fl.
There are ominous mutterings in the
strong Republican counties of toe North
against the Grant programme, and it is
now reasonably certain that the Republi
cans of the old Wilmot tier, embracing
Susquehanna, Bradford, Tioga and Potter,
will set up for themselves and make it
uncomfortably hot for those who assume
to deliver them over to the third term ar
rangement. Cameron upset toe Grant
hay on the Blaine leaders of the North
and supposed that they were all smother
ed into silence; hut they are restless
cusses up that way and propose to toss toe
load back upon Cameron. The question
to be decided is whether Cameron or the
Blaine leaders in that region will play the
- part of the bull with toe hay on his horns.
Death of William A. Balnea.
The many friends and customers of
Halsted, Haines & Co., of New York,will
regret to loam of the death of Mr. W. A.
Haines, the senior partner, which occurred
at Palatka, Florida, on the fifth instant.
Mr. Haines bad visited Florida to recu
perate, having recently suffered from a se
vere attack of pneumonia. While there
he became affected with Bright’s. disease,
which resulted in death as before stated.
His body was transported to New York
by the Pullman Palace car company in a
special coach, and buried from St. George
church, Slurbeysant square.
An explosion in toe shell and cartridge
factory in the artillery barracks at Santia

The Cincinnati Southern Excursion.
The excursion over the new line of the
Cincinnati Southern railway is attracting
no small amount of interest in business
circles. The roads connecting with the
new line have reconsidered its intentions
and will transport free a limited number
of persons free of charge. This is a gener
ous act on the part of all the roads, and
one that will be appreciated.
The following circular letter has been
issued by Captain W. G. Roaul to the
Mayors of the places along the Southwes
tern line .
On the occasion of opening the Cincin
nati Southern Railway for business, they
tropose a free excursion to Cincinnati,
caving Chattanooga on the morning of
the 17th instant, and at their request we
have consented to carry free such a num
ber as they may designate. To cany out
this arrangement, they have supplied us
with a number of tickets, and request that
we elect the parties to use them. The
number allotted to your city is . As I
do not feel disposed to assume the responsi
bility of making the selections for such
invitations from among our many patrons,
I have determined to send to the Mayors
as the chief representatives of their places,
the tickets allotted. I enclose you here
with tickets, and respectfully re
quest that you make the selections of par
ties who should represent the mercantile
interest of your city on this excursion.
The Cincinnati Southern Railway re
quest that the selection. 1 - oe made cxclu-
sieely from the heads of the largest mer
cantile houses and confined to one repre
sentative from a firm; to'which request I
respectfully ask that you give strict com
pliance.
Trusting and believing that you will
give satisfaction to the merchants of your
place, I am, etc.
Tickets tothe number of fifteen will he
handed Mayor Huff this morning, and
will probably he distributed very soon, as
the demand for them will be large.
The Razor.
There is one thing that our colored
friends can never learn, it seems, and that
is to confine the razor to its proper sphere.
Webster defines the razor as an instru
ment for cutting the hair or beard; but'
the colored m^nipula£ords not hampered
by definitions.- With him a razor is an
instrument for cutting, and a powerful
argument when reason becomes inactive.
This article, playfully designated as an
instrument for cutting off the beard, has
become the coat of arms of the colored
race. It is their particular monogram.
The court gentleman sports his rapier, the
sailor his clasp knife, and the Italian his
poniard, hut the darkey totes a razor,
has'become an adjunct of his public meet
ings, weddings, church services and family
gatherings. A difference of opinion as to
the final resting place of the soul
introduces it; a fancy-wedding demands
it, and in toe bosom of his family it turns
up, either as a subduer of - a refractory
wife,or the reducer of a too active mother-
in-law. It is astonishing wha) an influ
ence an impartial razor can exert as a
convincer. We have known of cases in
which an orator ha3 carried his point,
with but oiie introduction of this simple
argument. Men who would contend for
twenty-four hours that the north star set
in the east, will acknowledge that black is
white, if the razor says so, and asserts its
views with any degree of grace, for how
ever men may differ as to their own words
they are as a unit, when the razor speaks.
This may seem tothe colored mind em
inently proper and correct, but it is not so
always. There have been cases in which
too law differed successfully with the ra
zor. • We have known of men being
hanged by toe heck for a too reckless use
of this instrument, and the chain gang has
frequently boasted of individuals to
whose coat of arms the court has added a
quartering of black, showing a ball and
chain pendant. We merely mention this
to show that the law looks not with favor
on snch as advocate a broad field of ac
tion for toe razor. Perhaps it would be
wise if Mr. Webster should be obeyed in
the matter, and it be regarded only as an
instrument for cutting off the heard. It is
worth considering anyway.
He had not slept a wink tor twenty-
four hours, coughing all toe time. His
sister bought a 25 cent bottle of Dr. Bull’s
Cough Syrup at the nearest drug store,
;ave him a dose and the cough was bro-
:en at once, and he slept quietly during
toe night.

According to the Cincinnati Commer
cial, toe argument in John Sherman’s fa
vor is that he can carry Ohio. If that is
actually a fact, Ohio will doubtless have
to consider herself out of the arrangement
this year. This country Is too big to he
held up by the tail by Ohio all the time.
To prevent distemper m noise and cat

Tbe Baptist Clmrcli Bow.
Yesterday some six or eight of the par
ties in toe late disgraceful affray in toe
Baptist Church (colored) were brought up
before toe Mayor on a charge of disorderly
conduct, and a fine of $10 levied upon
each. They will be prosecuted before the
County Court on the charge qf disturbing
public worship. The case of the State vs.
Forest Williams, who is said to have per
formed the carving during the melee, has
been set for next Friday, that toe victim
may recover sufficiently to be able to tes
tify.
Iii our account of toe affair, yesterday,
we should have stated that officer Bishop
arrested Forest Williams at toe house in
which toe marriage festivities were being
held, and with officer Ray field carried him
out. Both officers acted in a prompt and
fearless manner.
A Seed Potato.
We were shown yesterday, by Mr. John
.Farmer, a curiosity .in the shape of an
Irish 'potato, containing in its heart a
perfect peach seed. The potato had com
pletely surrounded toe seed, yet gave no
signs of the presence of its strange occu
pant. It was only after the vegetable had
been boiled and cut open that the fraud
was discovered. Had it been planted, we
would have witnessed toe novel sight of a
potato vine bearing peaches, or, perhaps,
a peach tree producing potatoes.
Tbe Oeinolgee On a Boom.
The late heavy rains have swelled toe
Ocmulgee up to within three feet of the
freshet of last fall. The swamp and bot
tom lands have again been Hooded, the
fields adjacent to Tracy’s lake and toe
lands below, being for toe greater
part entirely under water. Fortunately
for the farmers, but a small percentage of
the com crop had been planted, or tbe
damage would have been heavy. As it is,
only such localities as were exposed to
currents have suffered, toe oat crop, in
some places, being badly washed. Where
toe lands were covered only by toe back
water, the flood will prove an advantage;
as the water slowly recedes, a rich allu
vial deposit will be left to the permanent
enrichment of toe soil.
From Mr. Rau, the bridge-keeper,.we
learn that the highest line left by this
freshet is abaut five feet below the Cen
tennial flood, four and a half below the
Hairison freshet and three below that of
last fall. As it was, however, residents of
that portion of East Macon lying next
the river, made active preparations for a
safe evacuation in case toe river continued
to rise, but the waters began to fall as the
rain ceased, and yesterday, at noon, were
three feet below the highest point reached.
Unless the rainfall above the city contin
ues, the river will have resumed its usual
peaceful course within a day or so.
Walnut creek, during the rain, over
flowed its banks, but retired within a few
lours. The bridge was not injured.

Memphis.—The Tribune says there are
good tidings indeed from Memphis. The
precautions which saved New Orleans
from yellow fever, last year, may this,
year save Memphis. If it does, toe whole
country will be glad. The Nicholson pave
ment has been abolished. A new system
of sewerage has been adopted, which will
he confined to house drainage, leaving sur
face drainage to work off through toe
street gutters. All the vaults are to abol
ished and replaced by water-closets. One
hundred and twenty-five filthy houses have
been destroyed, and as many more put in
good order.
It is questionable, however, wheth
er such an upturning as has been
had in Memphis, though ultimately bene
ficial, will not be temporarily pernicious,
When we in the South remember the sick
ness which followed the war, resulting, as
was generally conceded^ from toe disturb
ance of the earth’s surface in fortifications
aud other proposes, we may well doubt
that whether similar operations are not
for a time prejudicial to health.
M. Lessees, in addressing tbe House
Committee on toe inter-oceanic canal last
week, stated that chough acres of sand
had been irrigated by toe Suez canal to
support a population of 40,000 souls,
where before a chicken . could not have
found enough to support life. Instead of
destroying the English railroad interests,
their businesss had been quadrnpled. He
forgot to rejoice the hearts of the advo
cates of the Monroe doctrine by telling
his auditors that Beaconsfield, by one of
toe quickest and suddenest moves ever
made on toe political chess-board, had
bought up a controlling interest in toe
canal stock and had perpetrated one of
the mightiest “scoops” of history by as
suming toe entire control of the-canal.
The Tribune says Georgia is solid for
Tilden. This illustrates the old adage,
“Go from home to learn home news.”
Nobody in Georgia would suspect the ex
istence of that fact.
Even if we are not smart we know what
to do when troubled with a cough or cold.-
No doctor hills for us. We take twenty-
five cents; go to the nearest drug store,
and buy a bottle of Dr. Bull’s Cough
Syrup. One dose relieves and one bottle
cures us entirely. It is pleasant to the
taste..
In Orangeburg county, Sonth Carolina,
an old man has been smoked out who has
ten living children, 104 grand children,
391 great grand children, and 70 great-
great-grand-children, making in all 575
living descendants, and 110 dead. The
most remarkable feature of this family is
the fact that both the old people lived to
see their youngest and thirteenth child a
grand mother.
President Hayes doesn’t like toe

A dispatch from Vicksburg, Miss., to

only levee so far threatened by the freshet.
The bank is caving, but the levee is safe
for the present. The Vicksburg, Monroe
and Shreveport railroad is the only one
likely to suffer, and the trains are still
running. The river has reached the dan
ger line, and is still rising.

■BOCHIYG HOXICIDE ON THIRD
STREET.
Hr. James Roberts Kills His Cousin,
Sol Roberts.
Yesterday afternoon, at about two
o’clock, the sharp report of a pistol was
heard on Third street near Cannon &
Co’s, store. Bystanders looking up
quickly,saw a tall, squarely built man, at
the mouth of the alley, stagger, drop his
head upon his breast, and fall heavily to
toe pavement, while a short, tliick-set
young man, pistol in hand, harried off
down the street. Rushing to toe assist
ance- of tbe fallen- man, they found him
lying partly on his face, with a ghastly
wound through the upper centre of his
forehead, from which blood and particles
of brain was pouring forth.
He was observed to gasp once or twice,
and then life became extinct. In a few
moments Lieutenant Hurley and Officer
Adair overtook and arrested toe armed
stranger, when it was found that the dead
man was Mr. Sol Roberts, his slayer, a
first cousin, known as “Bud” Roberts,
both residents of Jones county. A dense
crowd assembled about the scene of
toe tragedy, and lounged around
in little groups discussing toe scene, long
after toe body and prisoner had been re
moved to too barracks.
A reporter of the Telegraph and
Messenger visited the barracks as soon
as the body was received; and saw lying
upon ' r a bench toe body of a man
of splendid proportions and physique.
The upper portion of toe head was qlotted
with blood and brains, and toe cheeks and
nose bore marks of his fall after the death
wound was recoived. The eyes, which
were opened, gazed upward with a horri
ble stare, and toe lips half parted,revealed
the set teeth. It was toe face and ex
pression of a man jthat had met death by
a violent shock, received while in the full
enjoyment of all his powers.
It was impossible to obtain any ex
planation of or toe causes which led to
this terrible occurrence. From old resi
dents of this and our adjoining county,
however, we learn that since the killing
of Gus by his brother, Jack Roberts, in
1S58, there has been a feud between two
sections of the family, and much ill-feel
ing. No trouble, however, was known to
exist between the • two actors in toe late
tragedy. On the contrary, they.had
grown up together and been schoolmates,
and toe deceased, especially, bore the
character of a quiet, peaceable man. The
family is a noted one in Jones county,
and its members are well known in this,
as planters of largo means and high
standing, genial in their associations, and
hospitable in their homes.
Coroner Chapman, as soon as possible,
summoned a jury, before whom the fol
lowing evidence was produced:
R. H. Britt swom.—Was not acquaint
ed with either party; was passing and
heard sharp words between the two men.
Both had pistols in hand. The smaller
man firtfi, and deceased dropped his pistol
and fell. The smaller man was hacking;
he raised his pistol and shot; think he
shot as the other drew his pistol. This
was at the mouth of the alley, near Can
non’s store.
\V. J. Roberts swom—Am brother of
the deceased; was talking with him when
William and Bud came np; Bud took Sql
aside to talk with him; he had his hand
in his pocket when he came up. Sol
handed me his umbrella to hold, and put
his hand in his pocket as he walked off
with Bud. This was in front of Cannon’s
store; they only left us a few feet: I was
watching Bill, and did not hear what
passed between the two; heard Bud say
“damn” something, and saw him draw
his pistol; did not see Sol’s pistol, but he
had one; Brother grabbed at Bud’s pistol,
saying—“Don’t! don’t! don’t!” when it
was fired, and he fell. The two had not
spoken to-day; Bud did holler to me in
Ullman’s, “How are things to-day?” and
I replied, “By G—d, they’re all right.”
He referred to a difficulty had with ra
ther. Bud was drinking* I thought he
had been up to something^all day.
Mr. James Whitehurst' testified to the
material facts in toe above, with the ad
ditional fact that toe deceased was
advancing on the other pistol in hand,
whether to catch hold of toe pistol or to
attack he could not say. Mr. LaFayette
Balkcom te’stified in accordance with facts
as given-by the brother of the deceased.
The jury found that “Sol Roberts came
to his death by a pistol shot wound in toe
forehead, produced by a shot fired from a
pistol in toe hands of James Roberts.”
The body was turned over to Mr. Frank
L. Johnson and other friends of deceased.
The prisoner was lodged in jail upon a
warrant charging him with murder..
After the killing on Third street, a
difficulty occurred between the father and
uncle of deceased in ’which pistols and
sticks were flourished,and another tragedy
prevented only by toe prompt interference
of toe police.
Count?- Court.
The case of the State vs. -Hendenon
Dumas, charged with disturbing public
worship, was called in the County Court
yesterday morning, and tried before his
Honor Judge Holt. After a full hearing
of the case, in which the prisoner was
ably defended by Mr. B. W. Patterson, a
verdict of guilty was entered. The pros
ecution was conducted by Mr. Alex.
Proudfit, in his usual vigorous style.

Fire.
An alarm of fire was sounded from toe
City Hall yesterday morning, at half past
eleven o’clock, and in a few momenta the
streets were filled with engines and an ex
cited crowd hurrying out toward the cotr
ton factory. The fire was located On Arch
street, in the residence of Mr. Robert Find
lay, where a defective flue had communicat
ed the flames to the wood work. It w^s ex
tinguished under the direction of Mr.
Chapman, before toe engines arrived.
Cumberland Island.
Visitors to Cumberland last summer,
who enjoyed the hospitality of Mr. W. R.
Bunkley, will be glad to learn that he lias
increased his accommodations and added
many improvements to liis house; on the
Island. Cumberland, with its magnifi
cent beach, unrivalled hunting and fish
ing privileges and pleasant breezes, has
long been a favorite resort for Maconites,
and toe Bunkley House a popular tarry
ing place. Mr. Bunkley has something
interesting to excursionists among our
new advertisements.
Police Court.
The Court having disposed of the Cin
cinnati Excursion tickets satisfactorily,
entered his throne yesterday morning at
nine o’clock and sounded toe judicial
rally. Mr. Dyonisius Smith responded,
and acknowledged to having been drank
toe day before. He denied the charge of
disorderly conduct, however, and toe
Thief in Umbo.
Yesterday morning, Henry Barnes, the
negro that stole $200 from Mr. De Lamar
Turner at 9) on the Central ready.and
whose arrest was noticed in these columns
a few days since, was turned over to Mr.
Turner, together with $105 of the stolen
money. A reward of $50 had been offered
for the recovery of the sum stolen, and
toe owner promptly paid to Chief Adams
$42.50 for the amount recovered.
Barnes was arrested in the haunts of
three Cyprians on Fourth street, where he
was conducting himself like a prince in
toe first degree. -
City Bonds.
■Work upon toe city bonds continues to
progress. Mr. Williamson, the Treasurer,
has already, signed up one hundred and
twenty thousand dollars worth of the $1,-
000 bonds. The bonds are divided into
toe following denominations: There are
five hundred of the $1,000, five hundred of
the $100, and four hundred of the $500
bonds. ' Some idea of the labor to be per
formed in order to perfect, these securi
ties, may be gathered from the fact that
the Treasurer will have to sign his; name
to each one hundred and twenty-one times.
The total number of signatures will be
164,400.
Tbe Cincinnati Excnrtlonists.
Tickets for toe excursion to Cincinnati,
turned over to Mayor Huff for distribu
tion, have nearly all been disposed of,
though we are unable to give a list of toe
excursionists, as it is unsettled as to how
many will avail themselves of the oppor-.
tunity of visiting toe West; such as can
not go, will return their tickets, to be oth-
wise disposed of. A delegation of about
sixty-five from along the line of the M%£on
and Brunswick railroad will unite with
toe Macon party.
We are reliably informed that the Wes
tern and Atlantic road will recognize toe
tickets at any time they are presented.
Parties who wish to avoid toe crowd, may
thus start a day- earlier and secure better

Hardeman Jt Glbsou.
As will be seen by reference to another
column, a partnership has beten - formed
between two bf our well known cotton
men, Messrs. Thoruas Hardeman, Jr., and
A. Wi Gibson.- These gentlemen bring
into their new relationship, a life time ex
perience as warehousemen, and an ac
quaintance that covers the whole of Mid
dle Georgia. It is a strong firm, and one
that is sure to become popular. The bus
iness of the firm will be conducted in the
warenouse occupied by Thomas Harde
man, Jr., last season.
Augusta Fire Company Coming.
A letter was received yesterday by Mr.
W. F. Grace from the Secretary of Citi
zens’Fire Company, No. 8, of Augusta,
announcing toe intention oftbat company
to participate in the parade in this city,
on the 15th of April. It is- pretty well
settled that Griffin will send both of her
companies. This is news to stimulate our
boys; nothing pleases them better than an
opportunity of entertaining visitors, and
trying conclusions with them in contests
of skill.
Dick Royal’s Bar. '
Dick Loyal, the onlyjman in Georgia
who can mix one hundred different kinds
of drinks, has just opened a neat and
well appointed bar-room at No. 7, Hol
lingsworth block. He invites his numer
ous friends, and, in fact, all who can ap
preciate liquid refreshments, to give him
a call. In addition to liquors,- Loyal
keeps always a full supply of choice ci
gars and tobacco.

Death of A. R. IfcLangMln.
The many friepds of Mr,' A. JR... Mc
Laughlin will be pained to leami of -his
death, which occurred yesterday morning,
at two o’clock. The deceased had long
been a sufferer from consumption, and
passed quietly away after the disease had
run its course. Mr. McLaughlin was'
once a.lieutenant in the Floyd Rifles; for
a long time chief of Young America, No.
3, fire company, and served a portion bf
a term as City Clerk, J resigning
on account of failing health. He was
young man of most excellent character,
admirable qualities, the favorite of a large
circle of friends and beloved by all who
knew him. His funeral will take place
from the residence of liis sister, Mrs.
H. R. Stroemer, corner of Mulberry and
Fourth streets, to-day at 2 p. m. He will
Monday, should he find evidence to justify
said denial. Politely thanking the court,
Mr. Smith withdrew.
Mr. George Holstein, of East Macon,
plead not guilty to the charge of selling
liquor on Sunday. Five witnesses were
introduced against him, who testified that
they knew nothing of it. As the last,
however, was retiring, he did remember
to have bought a glass of beer from Mrs.
H. This gave toe court a foothold, and
the case was set for Monday. -
Charles Aiken, who had been picked
up the night previous, in an open hall
way, said he was not a suspicious charac
ter, but was on his way to Milledgeville
looking for his father. The police put
him on toe right scent by locking him up
in toe same cell that sheltered the old
man a few days since. A gentle “go”
from too Court started him along the
Milledgeville trail.
Henderson Dumas approached toe bar
to explain where he was during toe riot at
toe colored' wedding. Several acquaint
ances swore he was sitting in toe church
gallery, laughing and talking, several
swore he was at' Russel’s store across the
way playing toe tamborine. Henderson
sided with, the latter.
After an ineffectual effort to reconcile
this difference of opinion, the Court gave
it up until Monday, and announced the
review at an end.
The police are doing good service at
this season; arrests are promptly made,
and few offenders escape.
The Junior class of Yale has a prodigy.
