some breeze, however, and to a peraan who

A Fiost.—One of tbe spunkiest lights of the

They went at it like smstenr pngilist*, eneb

standing near, deemed it hia duty to sopnrato
them and attempted to do so, whereupon both
boys set npon him and compelled him to retire.
Having than golton rid of the third party, tho
boys again went to business and fought with
vim that would have dono credit to the P. It.—
Neither got whipped; bat both abandoned the
light, ont of broatb and very bloody. The last

difficulty to-morrow morning.

present and examined a number of tho classes.
He oomplimented the scholars npon thoir thor

H* also explained to the poople tbo operation

bet ter dry goods merchants io the Sooth. They
know what amount of trade they command, and
they know that their holiness this season will
amonot to more than a million of dollars.
They know the demands of the Southern
trade, and hare bought a stock to meet its re
quirements. They boy exclnsirely for oosb,
hence they buy at the very lowest prices, and
can sell as low aa the lowest New York jobbers.
Retail merchants can, at least, save freights and
time by purchasing of them. Their slock is
oomplete in every particular. Every depart
ment is commensurate with the dignity of the
entire establishment, and it is their purpose to
keep i: so.
Parties visiting Macon have not seen lha city
until they shall have seen the interior of this
vast eiiablishment. It gives a clear idea of
what a metropolitan business is. Their long
rows of counters, freighted with every species
of goods belonging to the dry goods trade, con
tain everything a retrail merchant, no matter
how pretending, can want lo pnrehase. We
invite the trade of the South to come to Maoon
and examine this stock, feeling assured that, aa
many as do so, will go no farther, but make
their purchases here
stolen Goods Recovered.
Mention was made yesterday of the theft of
a trank and a lot of clothing from the room of
Messrs. £1. D. Qjgnenin and E. D. Doncan.
The robbery was perpetrated between nine and
ten o'clock Friday night.
Aa the train which left here at 11 o'clock was
on its way to Columbus, a trank was observed
on board beariog the name of Mr. Hoguenin.
There was a negro on board who, when ap
proached for hia ticket, said be had no money,
but be had a trunk on board which they might
take. He point-id ont the trnak beariog Mr.
□uguenin'a came. This created suspicion, an.
a watch was placed over the negro until the
matter could be looked into. But the man who
had bees ast to watch happened to turn hia
head for a moment, when the negro, regard
less of the fact that the train was tanning
twenty miles an boar, cleared the oar at a bound
and escaped.
When tho train arrived at Geneva, a dispatch
was sent to Mr. Hoguenin that his truck and
elothing had been oapturel. When the train
arrived here yesterday evening it brought them
in. The trank had been broken open. It con
tained nothing bat some old love letters and
otbar college papers, and tho diamond ring
The thief, in examining his booty, failed to dis
cover tbo ring, and it was fonnd safe in tbe
trank when returned. The clothing was also
on tbs train done up in a huge handle. All
tbe stolen clothing was reoovored, except half
a dozen shirts.
As the train retained yesterday evening. in
quiry was mids at tbe different stations, in
order to ascertain tbo negro's whereabouts. A
person answering his description had appeared
at No. ]}. who seemed to have been bart some
how or other. The negro is still at large.
The boys are bappy because, having recov
ered their clothing, they can go to chorch as
ntnal to-day. Tbe ring wan an old family relite
and was oateemed beyond all money value by
Mr. Hoguenin.

Eeroped Convci Recaptured.
Our readers will remember that Some two
months ago five oonvicts msde their escape from
the chain gang. Ooo of those was a noted ne
gro thief, who made it his principal bnsineaa to
defame the illnatrions name of George Wash
ington. He stole a lot of iron from the armory
building, for which was ho prosecuted by Gen.
Ivanon. His trial oame off at the last April
term of the Superior Court, and he was convict
ad and sentenced to twelve months’ aervioe ic
the ehstn-gang. But ha made his escape, aa
before listed, and for two months has been
cheating the oonnty out of some labor whioh
was honestly due it.
Yesterday Mr. Wm, Foster, one of the Coun
ty Coart bail St, saw Washington in a store on
Cotton avenue. His appearance was consider
ably changed ; bnt Fester thought he recog
nized in him an old friend. He went np to
him, laid his band on his shoulder, and asked :
“Ain't your name George Washington ?” “No,
atr,” was the reply ; “my name's Georgo Wil
liam*.” “Well,’’-sard Foster, “I'll take you for
George Washington, any how,” and forthwith
marched him iff to jail.
When they arrived at the jail and Washing
ton was turned into his old cell, he found there
one of hia old jail companions, who recognized
him at once, and exolaimed, “Hello, George.
What In the h—1 did yon let 'em catch yon for.”
That remark knocked all tbe assurance out of
George, and he at once became es meek as a
little ebeep. It is now quite probable that
shout a dozen months will be added to hia term
of aervioe as a warning to other oonvicts who
aaay seek to escape from tbe chain-gang.

J. Chandler Harris, of the Savannah Morning
News, stands b>x feet five in his stocking feet.
He is a brunette of the moat perfest type, with
coal black hair, flowing down bis neok in beau
tiful clusters of ringlets that would arouse the
envy of tho fairest lady in the land. He baa
the head of an Adonis mounted upon tho broad
shoulders of a Heronics. His Biz] and pro-
igions strength give him unlimited license to
pop his jokes bapbazird over the heads of peo-
pio with an indiscrliuinatenees which would in-
timidaio a less heroic person. His dominant
personal quality is his prevailing good hnmor.

apprenticeship and got married,but that does not
alter tho proposition. Like other people he has
his bates. His special aversion is artillery
punch. Ho has been known to walk four
blocks on! of his way to get around one, and be
has succeeded in getting around half a dozen of
them in the cameo of an afternoon. One day
was so lato in getting to tbe otfiee that ho did
not arriTO tilt (wo o’oiock next morning. Eis
excuso was that tbe punch was bigger than nsn-
aud it took him longer to get around it.
He does tbe teeclogical business for the News,

one that he can expand to a quarter of a col

The Court and a great crowd of people zs-
aembled at the Oonrl-house yesterday morning,
to hear the testimony in the case of L. B. Pike,
charged with the murder of Carl F. Baer.
The Superior Court room could not be had,
.edit was finally determined that the investiga
tion should proceed in Judge Weems’ offioe.—
This arrangement effectually excluded the
crowd of curiou] peaple who were eagerly in
tent upon hearing the testimony.
When everything was ready, Jadge Weems,
one of the counsel for the prisoner, stated that
they objected to the case being tried before
Jn.tice Sprier. The objection was made under
the following section of tbe code:
The arresting officer shall carry tho prisoner
before the most convenient and accessible judi
cial effieer authorized to bear the os use, unless
the prisoner shall desire otherwise, in which
case, if there be no suspicion of improper mo
tive, the arresting, rficer shall carry him before
soma other judicial officer. Bat in no case haa
a prisoner the right to seleot the officer before
whom he shall be tried.
The point was briefly argued by Cols. Lofton
and Blount for ihe State, and Cob Hall for the
prisoner. The point made by the former was
that the time bad elapsed in which the prisoner
could interpose this ob jection, as he had already
been virtually bronght before Sprier,'that offi
cer having isined tubp . oas for witnesses, and
done everything else that was necessaty in ad
vance of tbe examination.
The counsel for the defense .1* ted that they had
notified tbe arresting offioor on 'Thursday eve
ning of their objection to coming before Jus
tice Spricz, and had also notified Sprinz him
self on Friday morning. They were willing to
proceed before J ast ice Coxe alone, or before
him, asaooiated with any other magistrate that
oould be obtained. They were willing to go to
trial before any other magistrate lo the coun
ty, but not before Sprinz.
Sprinz stated that nnder the oircumstanoea t*
should doebne to ait in the oaae. He had ap
plied to other magistrates to oome and ait with
Coxe, but for various reasons they had all de
clined.
