We bear of a man who carried seventeen

mighty bad night for “possum banting” at that.

Cabetiso Concealed Weapons —For a few
days past shooting has become very common in
Macon. Not a night passes that we do not hear
several pistol shots. This habit of carrying eon-
ocaled weapons is one of the worst and most
inexcusable that can be contracted. There may
be limes when a man is justifiable in carrying
weapons for defense, bat when such emergen
cies arise (he pnblio will approve the plan of
carrying them in an open and not a concealed
manner. Onr experience has been that only
those who carry deadly weapons ever have oc
casion to nee them. Tbe fact of a man’s having
concealed about his person a pistol is evidence
that he is anticipating a difficulty. And men
who attend to their own business, letting otbens
alone, rarely, if ever, expeet an altercation.
There are old men in Macon who have had to
deal with the pnblio all their lives, and yet have
never carried any deadly weapon abont their
persons. They will tell yon that there have
been times, perhaps, when they would have
Ufed them, had they been convenient, bnt after
calm and matnrA deliberation they were glad,
indeed, that they had none. Snob, at least, hss
been onr experience. If n man will attend
strictly to his own business there is but little
danger of his being attacked in such a way as
to render dangerous methods of defense neces
sary. The law has made ample provisions to
meet the eases of all who are imposed upon,
and armed with the law ia certainly more hon
orable than armed with pistols andbowie knives.
This miserable habit has become very general
and onr grand juries shonld look into it care
fully. So important is this subject tbst it is
made tho duty of the Superior Court jndges to
call the attention of grand jurors to it specially.
We know nothing of tbe proceedings of this
grand jury, bnt it does seem to ns that so mneb
of this thing has been prsotised recently, and in
such a way as to render deteetion easy, they
onght to find several true bills for this one of
fense. We do not accuse any particular mem
ber of this body of carrying oonoealed weapons,
bnt the praetioe has become so common now-a-
days that it is difficult to find twenty-fonr men
taken indiscriminately from tho people, some
of whom are not or have not been guilty of the
offense. And itia a difficult matter to get a man
to present another for a violation of law when
he is guilty of precisely the same thing. We
heartily wish that some means conld be devised
by which the babit conld be done away with
altogether.
Matos's Coubt —Basinesj was business
with tbe conrt yes erdsy morning. His Honor
was in a hurry. F. C. Bird first moved to tbe
front to answer u charge of undertaking to
stand on bis head and feet both at the same
time without keeping hi* month shut He took
up too much ground by bis gymnastic exer
cises, and was too anxious to be noticed, judg
ing from the noise he was making. An at
tempt at explanation failed. “Keno!” cried
Hia Honor; down came a V, and the Bird flew
away. Joe Plant doesn’t take oity money him
self, bnt if be finds any greenbacks lying
around loose, they are sure to be invested in
whisky for his own use, no matter who may
claim the greenback. Joe thongbt it best to
begin in time to prepare for Christmas, and to
this end laid violent hands npon fifteen dol
lars which belonged to another darkey. Joo
became suddenly penitent and refunded the
fifteen, together with an X to his Honor to say
nothing abont it, Angns McKinnon won't see
his little brother imposed npon by any son of a
nigger. Angns had picked up a pocket
knife, and as his brother and a small brother of
Sumner were attempting to test their wool pull
ing powers, Sumner not being present to de
fend bis brother, Angns decided to try bow bis
knife would ont nigger meet Angns devotes
the next thirty days to internal improvements
within the city limits, unless he can indnee
somebody to lend him ten dollars. Mattie Wil
liams, Mary Harris, and Emma Harris took
sjme pepper tea to counteract the effects of
the oold weather. They got to feeling ga-lorions
after swallowing the track, and made too much
fuss to suit a policeman near by. Polioe com
plained abont it, and the court lent a listening
ear. They will chew city hash for ten days
and take five dollars worth each of ttock in the
current expenses of the city. John Flemming
didn't come into court. He was down below
trying to convert himself into a Umber jack,
and for such silly behaviour he can pay five
dollars into the treasury when he wakes up.
Henry Glowers is a lightish He fights much.
He-hit a woman. Tbe woman eonldn’t appre
ciate the joke, bnt Henry thought it was mighty
funny. His Honor thought so too, and eonldn’t
see why a man shouldn't pay for fun when he
enjoyed it so much. Henry had, in tbe opin
ion of the oourt, enjoyed ten dollar*’ worth,
and drew a sight draft to that amount. Henry
came to time, and the court collapsed.

Tbe New Teleobats Compant.—The new tel
egraph company are pnshing along and soon
we will have plenty of home made lightning at

egraphing business is a mystery to ns; bnt then
there are some other things that are mysterious
too. It is a mystery how W. F. Carlos can
know exactly what everybody is going to want
to eat, and always have it on hand whenever it
ia called for. It is a mystery, too, bow he can
afford to Bell so cheap. We guess be knows
bow it is binuelf, bnt yon’ll be astonished if
yon call on him.
Fast Time.—It is said that tho farther South
yon go the slower the trains ran on the rail

ment we bare seen.
The American House, Boston, is so favorably
known that it seems a work of supererogation
to call attention to its many great improve

superiority, it is only justice to make known
tbe steady effort manifested by its proprietors
to render it tbe leading hotel of New England.
Brilliant.—Pnblio attention has been called
by the action of the State Fair oommittee to the
extraordinary merits of the Brilliant cooking
stove, to which toe first premium and gold medal
were awarded recently. It bums less fnel by

other stove now in nse : and it was for those
qualities, chiefly, that the committee gave it toe

BAY DISPATCHES.
New Yobs, November 17.—The Government
offers a thousand dollars reward for toe re-ar
rest of Bitiard, who escaped from Lndlow jail.
Ballard is considered the mo.-t dangerous coun
terfeiter in the world. No sigos of toe vessel
bearing the Grand Duke Alexis. Jay Gonld
discovering that his bail for a million for
Tweed would not prove legally satisfactory,
withdraws it Others were submitted. The
owner of Henry Bassett offers to ran him
against any horse in the world for $50,000—one
to fonr miles. A bonded warebonse was robbed
of $12,000 worth of silks belonging to H. B.
CJaflin. No arrests have been made. The cus
tom house officers seized $6,000 worth of dia
monds, which some European gamblers at
tempted to smnggle ashore.
Marshall O. Roberts writes a letter to ’toe
Times, stating tost ho was misled by false ac
counts, famished him by ring members of the
city government, last year, into signing a cer
tificate, endorsing tbe correctness of the finan
cial books of the city. He says that, at the
time, neither he nor Messrs. Moses Taylor and
J. J. Astor had any idea that the Comptroller
was a cheat and a fraud, and takes mnch blame
npon himself for falling into such a trap. The
counsel for Tweed have served on Charles
O'Conner a demurrer that plaintiffs have not
the legal oapacity to sne in this action, that toe
complainant does not state sufficient facts con
stituting cans© of action; that the complaint is
defective, by not including toe mayor, aider-
men, supervisors ami commonalty of toe city,
as defendants. The point raised is, that there

sence of all trace of lead, and of other poisonous
or hurtful things in it is absolute. By distillation,
I find its alcoholic strength to be exactly that of
proof spirits by the present United States Law,
viz: 60 parts by volume (measure) of absolute al
cohol, 83.71 parts of water; by weight this corre
sponds to alcohol 42% per cent., and water 67%
percent. The ash is chiefly alkaline carbonate,
and is far less in quantity than is found in the av
erage of good dtinking water. No alcoholic liqnor
can bo purer than the sample of your “Century."

I have carefully investigated theeampleof “Cen
tury” Whisky sent by you for inspection, and pro
nounce it to be free from adulteration, and as such
I can recommend its use to the public. I have ex
amined it for copper, lead, toe alkaloids, and other
poisonous eubBtances, but am happy to Bay I have
found none of them. The inspected Whisky con
tains 61 per cent, by volume, or 43.50 per cent, by
weight, of alcohol; 0.06 per cent, of ash. To the
taste it is mi. d, mellow and high flavored.

Prof. JOHN DABBY, Editor of the American Gro
cer, New York, says:
Wo have received a sample of the “Century
Whisky” for analyeia. We have condnctod the
analysis with great care; there is no trace of metal
in it, and nothing that should not come from the
fermentation and distillation of the finest grains.
The bonquet ia natural, depending npon a minute
quantity of volatile oil or ether. We have analyzed
many Whiskies, and have never before met with one
aa strong ns this; they are generally several de
grees below the government standard, this ia
slightly above. We are not a connoisera in liquors,
bnt if pnrity and strength are desirable qualities
the ‘.’Century Whiskies” most stand pre-eminent.
Dr. J. M. CABNOCHAN, Health Officer of the Port
of New York, Bays:
I have tried the “Century” Whiskies and find
them to be of very superior quality. I am happy to
recommend them, as I believe them to be entirely
free from deleterious or hurtful properties. The
analysis of Frof. Silliman is sufficient proof of their
great parity, and I believe that they will become
very popular Whiskies wherever they are once
used.

Prof. TILDEN, of Washington, D. C., says:
I have analyzed the specimens of the “Century”
Whisky Bent to mo with request to that effect. I
find no Fusel Oil and no trace of any deleterious
mineral or metallic substance. The liquor presents
no feature which does not belong to the best
Whiskies, while it offers some nnnsual points of
excellence. Its color ie dark, owing to toe presence
of Caramel, which undoubtedly improves its tone;
the taste is smooth and toe bead good. Tbe re
markable strength of this Whisky, coupled with the
unmistakable marks of age which are to be per
ceived, its freedom from harmful principles too of
ten found in such liquors, and its natural_ bouquet
justify mein prononnciDg it both for medicinal and
domestic purposes a superior article.
