Mrs. E. A. Pickett, of Dawson, started last -Saturday with three of her children to go to Boon wood in a buggy. At Tucker's crossing she saw the train coming, and knowing her mare to lie very much afraid of the train, site jumped out and jerked the children out. and just at that moment the animal started, ran away, smashed the buggy to pieces, and killed herself. The prewenoe or mind and quick action of Mrs. Pickett probably saved her own and the children's lives. Two miles north of Dalton on the West ern and Atlantic railroad, stands a relic of the “late unpleasantness.” in the shape of a granite mile-post, or rather the half of one. This mile-post has been snapped in twain about half way up, said to have been caused by a ball from a Yankee cannon during one of the many skirmishes about Dalton. Appreciating this historic association the company lias never put in anew post, but has left the broken one standing, a memento of the “time which tried men’s souls.” The largest sale of wool that ever occurred in Eastman took place on Tuesday last. There was 10,000 pounds of the staple put on the market.

Tbe extent to which stock-raising has been successfully carried in this State is not generally known. Burke, Richmond, Put nam and other counties have made great strides in this department the past ten veai*. There are as fine horses and mules raised in Georgia as ever came from Tennessee or Kentucky. The prices realized are remu nerative and decidedly encouraging. -Success comes in this department, as in all others, of personal attention on the part of the fanner or stock-raiser. News reached Griffin Friday of a killing, in which Clem Holmes became his own slayer. Holmes works on the plantation of Mr. Starke Hand, in Line Creek, and was well thought of. He was in the habit of carrying a pistol wherever he went. Wed nesday he was in the field plowing when it became necessary to change plow point*. In endeavoring to knock the plow on he missed his aim and struck his pistol instead, causing it to explode, the ball entering his left groin, ranging unward, and producing almost in stant death. At about 9 o'clock Thursday,two of Mari etta's well-known young people. Mr. Mur ray Hawkins and‘Misr Daisy Cox, called upon Rev. E. 8. Tunilin and requested that he tie the bonds which would make them one. Dr. Tumlin acquiesced, and in a short time the happy young people called upon their parents and coolly told of the step they had taken. The marriage was a great sur prise to the parents of 1-oth contracting par ties. The attachment existing between Mr. Hawkins and Miss Cox was well known, but no one thought that they were to be mar riel so soon. Nobody knew of their inten tions, and they went to the minister’s house unattended by relatives or friends. The Augusta Gun Club will commence its monthly and annual prize shooting on Fri day afternoon next. The arrangements of the ground* for shooting have been very much improved and ore now all that can be desired. Five new artillery I.igowsky traps have been put in place, and these are bolted to the platforms, and the traps always re main in place. They are covered after the shootings. A deep' pit is ring before the traj*; for the security of the trappers, aud a lx ix pit made for the puller. The wires are all under ground and are run through a tube. Seats have also been made for the contest ing marksmen or “shooters” and gun racks and ammunition shelf for the convenience of tlie club. The arrangements are very convenient and tine. Flint Hamilton, a young man residing near Dalton, happened to an accident on Tuesdav afternoon last, which may result in hi* death. A large hawk flew into the yard and Hamilton got out his double-barrelled shotgun, and as the bird was circling over head he threw the weapon up to his shoulder and fired both barrels at it. The gun was heavily charged, and as a natural conse quence, rebounded with terrific force, one of the hammers striking Hamilton in the forehead, causing a terrible, fracture of tbe skull. A physician was called in who dressed the wound and removed several par tiejes of the fractured skull, but it is doubt ful, considering its nature, if the unfortu nate mau survives the injury. A. L. VanTassell, of New York, who for several years has carried on an extensive business in Griffin evaporting fruits, will move his evaporator* to Marsnaliville, and is now erecting commodious buildings for the purpos® of evaporating fruits. lie will continue pushing and increasing the evap orating business yearly, and as soon as pos sible will have in connection a canning manufactory for the purpose of extensively canning fruit* and vegetables. That com munity is one of the largest fruit growing sections in the State, there being near 1.000 lien's devoted to fruits, and yearly addi tlonnl acreage is planted.

A large acreage was planted in melons, and the crop prom ises to yield abundantly and with a pros pect of good prices, the’business promises success.

H® takes with him about 600 specimens of different animals, birds and other curiosities, among others a very fine specimen of the large owl, A Palatka bank has all the State deposit* now, but a bill has been introduced to have it divided among the tianks of Jacksonville, Tallahassee. Pensacola, Ocala, etc., so as to scatter it all over the State. Besides these banks give bond and pay a fair interest for its use. In all probability it will not be passed. The old “North State,” sunk some time ago at Yalaha, has been raised and taken to I-ane Park by Capt. E. B. Walker. The boat was bought by the well-known mer chants of Jacksonville—Tysen & Smith. Tbe machinery of this boat will be taken to Jacksonville and placed in anew boat now being built for the Indian river trade. Jacksonville Herald: Col. Papy, of the Florida Railway and Navigation Company, informs the Herald that prospects are very encouraging for the establishment here, of the contemplated cotton compress, and that one firm now stands ready to furnish $75,000 towards it. Col. Papy lias labored unceas ingly for this gigantic business enterprise, and it is truly gratifying to himself and all the citizens here that the outlook is so bright.

Plant the peach alternate w ith the orange. A game of ball was played Wednesday afternoon between the colored clubs of Tampa and Hanford, at the Hanford Base Ball Park. The Tampa club was badly over matched, as the score would indicate. At the end of the game, which was played in good spirit throughout, the score stood 21 to 6in favor of the Hanford club. When the sable-hued Hant'ordite goes to the bat he has an idea that be will hit something, and the ball, is what he alms at. He usually “gets there.” Samuel D. Hawthorne, of Hawthorne, is getting good returns from bis vegetables. Prom naif an a ore he lias shipped 239 orates of toroat'ies. the returns netting #2 SO j<er orate; he will not lack much of shipping 'OO orates from this half acre. This farm and grove, and the adjoining one of Mr. Voder, are model farms, plenty of “elliow grease" being used in the cultivation. If some of the many growlers and calamity liars would try plenty of the same “fertilizers” there would be less to grumble about. From an examination of the calendars of the House and Senate, it would seem that the Florida legislators had been verv busy during the past two months in introducing bills, if not in passing them. In the House 1557 have been offered, in the Senate 294. Of this grand total. <551 bills, only a very small number, less than 10 per cent., have passed. Some were hurried through the closing days of the session, but the fate of the ninny will be oblivion until 1889, when they will eontn up again with tho same old chestnut regularity. Lightning gave the Lake City fUtiser i office a close call Thursday evening, shiver ing a large tiride of India tree near the cor ner of the building and sensiblv affecting the editor and two of the compositors, bo sides several other people in the vicinity. The thunder storm prevailing at the time was tho severest of the season, the atmos phere being very heavily surcharged with electricity. The bolt was of the especially dangerous globular character, having the appearance of u huge ball of most brilliant lire, and left the air heavily laden with the pungent odor of ozone. The concussion at tending the explosion was soo severe as to leave cheeks tingling as though they had leen slapped. On Monday. May 28 Post Office Inspector Orilffn, of Atlanta, discontinued the cost office at Sylvan Lake without, tho least, warning nr notice whatever, Sylvan Lake is one of the principal towns on the Orange Belt railway, which is now in operation from Monroe to Oakland, and just why tho office was discontinued is not known to any person, excepting, perhaps, the Inspec tor himself.
