—The Philadelphia Press rebukes the

—Any person over eighty years of age
who dies in Philadelphia is published twice
in Mr. Childs’ Ledger. Philadelphia is
about the only city in the United States
where one can make a reputation by dying.
It may be a little disagreoable to have “His
languishing head is at rest,” or “Her lan
guishing head is at rest,” applied to one
after it has been used for five thousand
other corpses, but fame has never yet over
taken the fastidious.
—Many of our readers who had the pleas
ure of seeing the charming little Lotta, when
she passed through this city last winter, will
regret to learn that her health is failing.
She is threatened with consumption and
will [retire from the stage for awhile and
come South to recuperate. She is said to
have lost strength originally by sleeping
with her mother, it being a well kuown fact
in medicine that a younger person loses
vitality by occupying the same bed with an
older one.
A SAD OCCURRENCE.
An Atlanta Lawyer Attempts Sui
cide.
We regret to chronicle a sad occurrence
that transpired in this city yesterday morn
ing. About 8 o’clock it was currently re
ported on the streets that Mr. T. H. S.
Brobston, a lawyer of this city, had cut his
throat and was lying in his room at the
Adams house, on Deeatur street, in a dying
condition.
Upon examination it was found that this
report was somewhat exaggerated, and that
the truth was as follows:
It appears that for some days past Mr.
Brobston has been dissipating|conaiderably,
and Jthat his nervous system was conse
quently terribly shattered. His friends
fearing that he might do some barm to him
self maintained a close watch upon him.
Night before last a negro remained in Ills
room all night. When he went out, Mr.
Adams, the proprietor of the house, entered
and commenced a conversation with Mr.
Brobston. He turned away a few mo
ments, and when he looked again the un
fortunate man had
COT HIS THROAT,
and was bleeding profusely. He told Mr.
Adams what he had done when the latter
rushed to him and took away the knife
which was still in the hand of the wounded
man.
He had cut a terrible gash on the left side
of his neck, just below the ear, missing the
jugular rein by very little, and coming
around nearly to the windpipe.
Dr. O. C. Heery was at once called in.
He did all that he could to aid the suffering
man, but he continued to bleed profusely,
and was soon completely exhausted. It
was feared at first thas the wound would
soon prove fatal, but the flow of blood was
at last checked, and recovery seemed not
improbable. At last accounts last night the
patient was better, and his case had assumed
a much more hopeful aspect.
It is now thought by physicians that with
proper care he will completely recover.
No cause is known for the unfortunate
occurrence, except great depression of spir
its and excessive nervousness. Mr. Brob
ston moved to Atlanta about eight months
ago from Madison, where he had lived seve
ral years before. He is about thirty-five
years of age, and a lawyer of prominence,
both here and in Madison. His friends
deeply regret his rash act, and have hopes
of his eariy recovery.— Constitution, 31i.

The editor of the Athens Watchman has
ceased to publish the schedule of
the Georgia Raiload, and he pays
his fare to Atlanta, speaks well of the civili
ties extended him by Ed. Purcell, and then
says that he is informed that the authori
ties of the Georgia Railroad have agreed to
return Athens to the status of a way station,
provided the Northeastern and Air-Line
will do the same thing. He believes that
the Georgia Road has always been inimical
to the interests of Athens, and ever ready
to discriminate against her.
They have on inspection in Athens anew

Disgraceful Conduct.
Tuesday afternoon several boys, whose
names we are unable to give, forced an en
trance into the Houghton Institute, and tore
up books, broke slates, turned over benches,
desks and inkstands, and did a good deal
of other damage. We learn that if the
parties who were engaged in this shameful
outrage can be found, Mr. Shecut intends
to have them punished to the full extent of
the law.

A double murder was committed at
Mooresville, in Falls county, eighteen miles

last. A man named Tremble had been
riding over the neighborhood armed with
revolvers and making threats. A warrant

a second shot, which pierced Hucleave’s
heart, killing him instantly. The desperado
mounted a horse and fled. A large pai ty of
men immediately started in pursuit, and ar

Gentlemen ; Allow me to congratu
late you and the good people of your
enterprising city, upon the gallant
struggle you are making in behalf of
your railroad project. I have read
with pleasure all your proceedings and
have published them, so that our
people may see what kind of metal you
are made of. You are on the right
track, reßt assured of that. Your brave
and manly course has inspired a
robust hope among all our business
men, and they now feel as they never
did before. We intend to stand by
you at all hazards, let come what may.
We ardently hope your Legislature
now in session, will heartily respond to
your wishes, and that you will have no
trouble in getting what „*ou want. We
have long since giveu up Charleston.
We now look to Augusta as our Polar
Star in the matter, and with her we
will stand or fall. You are certainly
prosecuting one of the grandest pro
jects of the times, and it demonstratss
the profound wisdom and keen sagac
ity of your citizens. As Chairman of
the Executive Committee, I will call
the Convention for your city sometime
in April or May. I will give due notice.
Meantime, keep working, and all will
be well. I take the privilege of send
ing you a copy of our paper containing
an editorial with regard to this enter
prise. Write mo about your prospects
and your views and feelings concern
ing this road.

Messrs. Landrum <fc Titchtield, Abingdon,

can render assistance to the afflicted to do
so; therefore, I take great pleasure in tes
tirylug, from my own knowledge, to the
great efficacy of your “Seven Springs
iron and Alum Mass.” 1 commenced using
It in my family in June last, in a case of
Liver Disease of thirty years standing,
which it has entirely cured. Its wonderful
effects in the immediate cure of sick head
ache, dyspepsia and chills and fever, I am
glad to say, has all been fully realized in
my family from the uie of a lew bottles of
this medicine. M y wife has been subject
to severe spells of sick headache for more
than twenty years, and has been entirely
cured by using a few bottles of this Mass,
