Hpid and several salutes fired by the "artil
in honor of the occasion.
jggtnformation reached Way cross Monday
that a terrible shooting affray had
at Valdosta between the Boyd
and the S willy brothers. The
of the affray was bad feeling which
between them on account of an old
trouble, and the Boyd brothers ac-
the Swiny brothers of setting fire to
woods. The Rwilly brothers were on
HHcir wav home when the Boyd brothers
overtook them, and hot words were ex
changed. Both parties drew their revolvers
and commenced firing at each other, during
which one of the Boyd brothers was shot in
the thigh and dangerously wounded, and
one of the Swilly brothers was shot in the
mouth, and the other received a dangerous
wound in the breast.
At Augusta Monday the Superior Court
was engaged all day in hearing the case of
Adolphus Leopard,* charged with the mur
der of William Brooks, at Algernon Mills,
about two weeks ago. About twenty wit
nesses testified. The substance of their tes
timony was that on the night in question
Brooks, who had occupied the position of
night watchman, and was succeeded by
Leopard, went to the mill gate and leaned
against the post, sharpened his knife on his
shoe sole and called for Leopard. Upon lI4S
arrival at the fence Brooks said: “You
have taken my job from mo and I intend to
kill you.” Then he jumped against the gate
and cut at Leopard through the fence. As
he did so Leopard jumped back, drew his re
volver and fired, killing Brooks almost in
stantly.
At Athens Sunday night, immediately
after the Salvation Army meeting, the Uni
versity students marched uu the street in a
body singing, and when Policeman Uood
nnn attempted to arrest one of them he
was sneerfea at by the crowd, which pro
voiced his wrath to such an extent that he
threatened to fire upon them. At this the
boys rushed to the college armory, and forc
ing on entrance ariued themselves with
muskets and bayonets, and marched
through the town 1.50 strong. It was
not tho intention of the boys to
'create any disturbance, as they were
very orderly and the guns were not
loaded. They only did it for nmuse
nieut; but the police force had an idea that
a riot was about to ensue, and Chief Oliver
summoned a large posse of citizens to sup
press it. When the students were informed
of this proceeding by a committee of the
citizens, they expressed regret that they
should have created such an impression,
and quietly marched hack to the campus
and disarmed themselves. The affair is
much talked of, and many still believe that
it was the intention of the students to
create a riot, but such was not their inten
tion. However, they certainly created a
big sensation, and the streets were crowded
with excited citizens.
A rumor reached Alpharetta on Saturday
last from a remote corner of the county
that one Henry Patrick (colored) and sov
eral of his family liad died within the last
week from some strange cause. Along with
this came the further rumor that 1). P. Mor
ris. who runs a grist mill in tho community
of Patrick's home, had for some time past
been missing meal from his mill, and in or
der to detect the thieves ho had mixed some
poison in his meal, and that Patrick had got
possession of the breadstuff thus diluted, and
hud furnished it to his family, and thus the
strange deaths were caused. Coroner
N. 11. Broodwell hastened to the
place* and with a jury from the vi
cinity spent the day Saturday, in
Inquiring into the matter. The jury re
turned a verdict: Tliat Putrick came to his
death from some unknown cause. On in
vestigation it was found that there were no
grounds for the rumors as to tho poison
theory. The coroner mid many others that
were at tho inquest are lif tho opinion that
tho negroes have been dying from the want
r.f meal and other eatables. And it de
veloped that what they had eaten for some
time past was actually given them by Mr.
Moms. There are seven small children of
the family still 'oft, some of whom are sick,
nnd all of whom look as if they were
starving.
Ar already stated in the News, a com
monly drowsed man walked Into tho Mill
edxevllle batik at Milledgeville last week
er.d proceeded to count off $5<H) in denomi
nations ranging from $2 to S2O. He then
wr ll.tsl up to tiio railing and requested Ml .
Belliuno, the cashier, to exchange the money
for $1(0 bills. When Mr. lietlruiie examined
tno bills ho found that tbev J:d not appear
to have ary signature. Believing the money
to .v> spurious, tho Marshal of ( ho town was
called 111 a:id the nun was arrested. On his
p-r.-or. wt.i found about 3'.’,>01 in bills. He
ra\e hri mono ns Patrick Dorrlhan, his
business an otiticicti, und that he bad a
cousin named William Ha.Tey, working at
the water work* in Atlanta. At Macon
Monday lie was tak*n before the United
Htatcs Cominis, .toner, and Mayor Walker
‘and others testified as to tho tacts related
nt ova The money was examined by J. ’V.
Catsudsi, costlier of tue Exchange Bank,
nnd found to be genuine bills on the banks
of Atlanta, Amencus, Rome and other
citica. lwldw treasury notes and silver cer
tificates. On Bt/tne ot the bills tho mimes of
the President of the bank appeared only,
and on some only that of the cainier. When
asked if ho dt sired to mako a statement
lie said that ho would prefer U> wait
until he could hear from William
Hailey. Kc wus then released 011 his
own bond. Dorriboa has been traveling
about in the South for the past two years.
Instead oi putting his money in lank he has
kept it in a belt around Ids body, and the
perspiration has absorbed tho written sig
natures "on the bills, in some of the bills on
tirelv obliterating them. Mr. Cabaniss is
satisfied that the signatures wore taken out
by perspiration and expressed his willing
ness to take the bills. Dorrlhan is about M 0
years old. about 5 feet high, weighs about
ISO pounds, black hair, full dark whiskers
and hint little the appearance of an Irish
man. He said that i'.e acted very green in
carrying such largo sums of money about
his person, and intimated that in future he
would keep a bank account.

About a month ago H. R. McLeod, of
Orange creek, was out in the woods on
horseback, with a double-barrel shotgun,
looking around. He spied a large buck, and
let him have both barrels, which were loaded
with buckahot. The deer tumbled over, and
Mai- went up to him, drew his knife, seized
hold of the antlers and drew the buck's
head over to cut his throat. That is he
made the attempt, but soon discovered that
he hud hold of a lively corpse, nnd one that
was full of war and wrath. Mac and the
buck hud it nip and tuck. He wanted to
let go and run, but that meant death
to lum. Ho attempted to- change his
knife from his left to his right hand,
and in making the attempt cut an artery in
his right wrist. The blood flew, and the
palmottoos were dyed with tho fast flowing
life-blood of Mac, who was momentarily
getting weaker, and tho deer improving in
action, wind and strength every second.
“Just as everything was beginning to swim
and things wore turning blue,” said Mac,
“I saw my old dog coming a-chargiug.”
Just at the nick of time the courageous dog
dashed in and seized tho buck by the nose,
throw him, and Mac succeeded in killing
the deer. He bound up bis bleeding luma
us best lie could and got back to camp,
where his companions cared for him. Tho
dog saved McLeod's life, as an angry,
wounded buck is a dangerous animal. Mao
has tackled his last doer.

donned anew dress of plain, liold-face tvpo
and now comes forth looking as bright and
pretty as a blushing young maiden in her
new spring bonnet, and h; equally as inter

seventh year never harrows up tho fooling
of its readers by gloom, malignity or bitter
ness of nny ldnd. For this' reason it
is a welcome visitor to our sanc
tum, as it is always pleasant to take up, and
it never leaves tho reader with uncomforta
ble feelings. The Morning News is a most
acceptable paper, both for the purity of
its style and excellence of its matter, which
is always void of offense to one’s finer und
better feelings. It is an admirably con
ducted paper, replete with the news of tho
day, and a broad, comprehensive and pro
gressive spirit manifested in its editorials,
