The artesian well at Rome is completed and proves satisfactory. At a depth of lid feet a flow of pure and clear water was reached, which it is computed will double the city’s supply.

Albany has many valuable cows, and they are a source of revenue to the people. W. P. Burks has an especially tine and valuable cow. Though she cost $125, a good round sum. yet she has paid for herself every year he has owned her in milk and butter sold, besides furnishing his family with what milk they consumed.

On Friday, June 34, there will be a grand Masonic celebration at Rehobotli church, near Shellman. This is one of the prettiest places in Southwest Georgia for a celebra tion, and there is always a largo crowd on such occasions. The church is situated in a cool, shady grove with a spring of splendid water nearby, making all that the most fastidious picnicker could desire. Griffin Sews: “Gas nnd water works are nil very well,” remarked a citizen yester day ; ‘'but they don’t bring any trade to town. AVhat Griffin wants is a compress, and as we can’t have everything, all effort* should lie concentrated upon that line. There is nothing can stand in the way of Griffin having a compress and getting satis factory rates if all the people stand together nnd say they will liavo a compress.’’ One Richard Robinson, who stole anew suit, of clothes and £6O in cash, nnd some valuable papers from Mr. Densely, of Kings ton, was caught. Wednesday morning in Rome. Ho had two watches at the jewelry store and the officers watched the place and about K o'clock ho came for his goods.

A party of Americus businessmen, calling themselves the “Thirtceu Club," have or- Kanizod, and contributed ,fi each to a com mon fund, tlie same to be invested in lottery The understanding is that if any mi f !lI? raWS “ Vr }?* tho * amo is t " **’ divided ’ tlle members of the club, ■tnni.. i rte<su h ,““ ,liwa J* bocn considered mduCity l.uiuoor lu.y are arm tour belief that the lottery people will lose the capital prize to Amerieus this time. Dawson Sews: ttne dav last week we saw a drunken hog down in the lower portion of the citv. (We mean a hog with four legs— of course, most of us have seen two-legged ones drunk.) He got drunk on stale beer. It was very amusing to see the porker as he would stagger along and occasionally put his nose to the ground in order to brace himself and put on brakes. It would bristle up nnd try to fight the largest liog that would coiue near. He had all the symptoms the two-logged ones usually have.- ” A colored thief was arrested at Atlanta Wednesday, and at his lodgings a regular Fagin’s den was discovered. Fifteen or twenty dresses, shawls, undcrclothiug,ladies’ hats, table linen, a large number of cravats, knives and many other articles were found secreted in trunks and boxes. The house was under charge of a negro woman who gave her name as Carrio Williams, and she was arrested as an accomplice. It is thought the man belongs to a regular gang of rogues and other developments are expected. By some means or other a rumor got cir culated about Covington, during the early part of last week, that the fast trains on the Georgia railroad would be taken off on June 1, which caused no little excitement and anxiety on the part of the people. Of course there was no official announcement of the matter, and no one knew how the report got into circulation. When the western bound fast train came in sight on that morning, however, a feeling of relief pervaded many a throbbing breast about Covington. • L. G. Hudson, living in Luciusville, eight miles from Amerieus, is a hard workmg man, and is making his labor pay. V. hen the war ended, lie was a 13-year-old boy without a cent. He went to work between the plow handles, and now he is running a store, well stocked with all kinds of goods; he has 800 acres of good cotton, from which he expects 300 bales; he has 450 acres of corn, potatoes, peas, sugar cane, and is going to make nil of the meat he can, and st ill have time enough to attend to extra busi ness. He is out of debt, and is going to make money enough this year to invest in some bthcr good-paying business. Wednesday morning about 8 o’clock a well-dressed lady drove up to the Atlanta police headquarters in a fine livery turn-out and inquired for the Chief of Police. Capt. Connelly approached the carriage door with his best bow, and his visitor asked him if he knew she was appointed by the Lord to see that the prohibition law was enforced. Chief Connelly replied that he was not aware of the fact, and thereupon the lady proceeded to inform him that she was. "I have come to warn you,” she said “that I have my eve upon you, aud if the law is not enforced, I say beware.” Without giving the Chief time to reply, she commanded the driver to pull up, and the equipage was soon out of siglit. A meeting of the stockholders of the Brunswick Journal Publishing Company was held on Friday evening at the Bruns wick Board of Trade’s room, and an organi zation effected. The stockholders elected the following board of Directors to serve for tho ensuing year: John Colville, D. Glauber, E. W. Bingham, W. F. Penniman, A. J. Crovatt. T. AV. Dexter and W. B. Burroughs. The board subsequently met aud tho following officers were chosen: John Colville, President; T. W. Dexter, Secretary and Treasurer; A. E. Sholes, Manager'. The company propose to start the publication of the Journal on or about July r 1, and Mr. Sholes and President Col ville are now in New York to make the necessary purchases. The City Council of Athens and the Water AV orks Company are at swords’ points, it is claimed the works never have come up to their contract. There is not the guaran teed pressure up town, and, says the Ban ner Watchman, one of the finest residences in tho town was allowed to burn to tho ground for the reason that the plugs would not furnish a stream of water to extin guish the blaze. It is believed that the city could have gotten damages by law from the company for this, but no such steps wore taken. At last the matter culminated in a rupture between the city and Air. Howell, President-of the company, and who is now said to be solo owner of the works. The im mediate cause was regarding the amount of water the city should have tree. The Coun eil is lighting mad, and proposes to get then full rights under the company’s charter. FLORIDA. George Campbell, of Lake AVeir, has a contract to deliver .50,000 budded orange trees to a California firm. The Gem City Guards have increased their membership to forty-three, and have applied for admission into the Florida State troops. Air. Jamison, who lives on the St. Johns river, dug up a casava root on his place a few days ago that measured nine feet in length, and seven inches in diameter.

Walker & Sons have filed an injunction against the Winter Park Railway Company to prevent them from running their road through the property near Highland I>ako.

Stephens, of AVclaka, shouldered their rifles early one morning during the week, for a long day’s alligator hunting on the Ocklawaha. They saw a large number of the tribe and would have brought homo a big loud, as they are both good shots, only their cartridges did not fit the rifle, and 'gators are not rising at a spinner this summer. Jim McCormick (colored), after being looked for several weeks by Sheriff AVil liams, was arrested and brought to Anthony on Saturday for a preliminary trial before Justice Listner, and in the absanco of a $250 bond was committed to the county jail to await, the action of the Circuit Court for breaking into a house and stealing a gold watch from a negro woman.

Parties from the North are already contracting to have new strawberry farms set out for next winter. Residents of Florida who wish to travel in the State should not forget to carry cer tificates from tho Mayor of the town they claim residence in, or the County Judge, to the effect that they have lived at least fifteen days continuously before the date of the certificate. It is awkward to be put off the train in the woods. Seven passengers were put off a train at Orange Park Monday, and not allowed to enter Jacksonville. H. R. Griner, of the Griner House, An thony, bus just sent a number of samples of lumber, consisting of yellow pine, curly pine, red bay, ash, magnolia, oak, etc., to Vienna, Austria, by request of a party of that country, who desires to engage in the lumber trade in New York.

At the Monday’s session of the Sanford City Council, when the clerk read the resig nation of Alderman Marks, general regret was apparent. Capt. Maries stated that he had sold his city property, intended to move to his country place, and would be incapac itated to serve the city longer as an alder man. The resignation was accepted and a vote of thanks for the wise, efficient and faithful services he had rendered the board was passed unanimously. The retiring alderman responded iu a fitting manner. Quarantine has been declared for the whole of Brevard rop-pty, the boundaries being Hanlover and Aurantift orrt.he north side, Indian river inlet and Gilbert's bar on the south, the Board of County Commis sioners at a special meeting taking prompt action in the matter. The fear of refugees from Key AVost. by ocean to Indian river, prompted the action. The health of Titus ville is good, and sanitary precautions are being taken by the city officials. The weather is warm aud dry, with cool, south east ocean breezes at all times. A Boy’s Daring Experiment. Washington Dispatch to the Indianapolis Sen tinel. A good story is told at the expense of one of the assistants to United States District Attorney Daniel Lockwood by a former stu dent of the Buffalo Aledical College. The presence of the Assistant Attorney in this city last week called it to his mind. Homo, years ago Prof. Mason, of New Ha ven, Coiin., was the lecturer on physiology and toxicology at that college, and it was his custom to illustrate his lectures with ex periments upon the lower animals. On one occasion, while telling the students the ef fects of various poisons, he remarked that the Indians of South America were accus tomed to use poisoned arrows to kill their game with. The poison used was known as woorara, and it could be taken into the stomach, he said, without injury; but if a single drop of the stuff should be injected into the blood fatal results would at once follow. To prove his experiment lie took a small quantity and injected it into the stomach of a dbg, which seemed to cause the animal no inconvenience. Then ho injected a drop more into the veins of a pigeon. The bird died instantly. The following’day one of the students asked what would be the effect if one of them should eat the bird. Mason replied that he did not know. The boy who was helping him, now the United States Assist ant District Attorney, volunteered tho in formation that the person eating the pigeon would have a good meal, aud that that was tho only result likely to follow. lie said that ho spoke from experience, as he had eaten that identical bird. The professor was astounded; his hair fairly stood on end as he remarked: “Well, my boy, you have far more faith in my experiments than I have myself. I would not have eaten that bird under any consideration.” Mixed Advice. A colored wedding was solemnized in the Corinth (Ga.) community a few days ago. After the ceremony there were numerous congratulations, and among those who ten dered their good wishes were the parents of the buxom bride, Said the father; “Big Babe, you must mind yo’ husband, do right and git along wid him to de best ob yo’ re bility. Live up to de high notch and do well if you can. Don’t lie alius fightin’ like eats and dogs. Mind what 1 tell you, now.” Then her mother, who is a cross-grained, quarrelsome old darky, said: “Don’t you listen to that nigger, cf ho is yo’ daddy. Jes’ ’member yo’ old mammy and think what I'sc gone through wid. Stan' up for yo’ rights mid don’t let yo’ hus lian’ spose oil you. Don’t be too pormillar wid him at de start and he won’t try none ob his foolishness wid you. Jes’ mind wlint yo’ old mammy tells you, now.” The bride appeal's to have followed her mother’s ad vice, for the honeymoon had scarcely waned before her husband was forced to thrash her two or three times by way of asserting his authority. , An Indolent Organ. When the liver is indolent, as it must necessa rily be when it fails to secrete the bile in suf ficient quantities to meet the requirements of digest km unit evacuation, it should be set at work with Hostetler's Stomach bitters. The healthful stimulus to activity imparted by this incom parably .alterative, speedily evinces itself in a departure of the uncomfortable sensation in the right side; tho nausea; fur iqiou the tongue; In digestion, mid sick headache consequent upon inactivity of the liver and the diversion of the bile from its proper channel.
