A colored woman was eaten by buzzards

mains were found Sunday in a dry pond, all
eaten by buzzards, hoi bones and clothing
being all that was left. She was ideuti
lied by the latter. How she came
to her death is not known. It is presumed,
however, that she died of a fit of some kind.
The colored people in the neighborhood sat
up all night near the remains, but left the

The Bank of Americas lias declared its
regular semi-annual dividend of $0 per
share and that amount was placed to the
credit of its stockholders payable on de
mand. The gross profits of the bank since
Jan. 1, IKB7, are $36,500, so after paying the
large dividends of (1 per cent, the surplus ac
count is also very largely increased. The
pride of the stockholders of this old and nour
ishing bank is its large mid increasing
surplus. The capital stock and surplus now
amounts to over one-quarter of a million
dollars. The bank has loaned out over four
hundred thousand dollars. With this stock
paying 812 per share jier annum and with
the good business patronage it now enjoys
it can well lie understood how it is t hat none
of the stock can bo bought for less than
$l5O per share.
Among the early settlers of Wilcox coun
ty was a man by the name of Willis, who
livid on tho Alhipaha river, some thirteen
miles from Ablievillo. One day he left his
family, which consisted of wife, daughter
and grandchild, to go to the river to hunt
hogs. It was late in the ovening before
he started home. When he came within
a short distance of home ho heard
his family screaming and know that the In
dians were there. Being unarmed and
afraid to go home, lie remained in tho woods
all night. The next morning he went up to
the house to find that the savages had mur
dered his wife and daughter and had taken
the child by the heels and bursted its brains
out against a tree. It was useless to seek
redress, and the Indians were allowed to es
cape unmolested.

\\*illium Holman, the Dalton murderer,
who was indicted, tried, convicted and sen
tenced to be hanged for the murder of Ma
tilda Gudger, win in all probability suffer
the death penalty on Friday next. He was
sentenced to be bunged on Thursday, June
0. but certain facts coming to the knowledge
of the Governor, he, on June 7, on his own
motion, granted a respite until June 9. and
there is little if any doubt that the
sentence of the court will ou that
day Vie executed. Holman is a young
man of good family, which fact has called
forth more than ordinary sympathy for
him, but the prevailing opinion in Whit
field county seems to bo that he merits the
punishment Governor Gordon has given no
indication that he intends to interfere any
further in the case. He received not. long
since a letter from Holman, in which the
latter thanked him most earnestly for
granting him the respite, thus giving him
time to prepare for death.
A. Otto, an old man who runs a small
bakery on upper Broad street, Augusta,
while in the rear of his house Tuesday dis
covered that someone was in the room just
back of his store. Going forward to see who
it was, he found a young buxom negro,
about Its years old, in the bedroom, ami two
others of the same size in the store. Taking
the negro who was in the room by the col
lar, he commenced to move forward toward
the door, so as to call a policeman At this
moment the other two scamps cried out:
“Slap him I slap him 1” which the negro
proceeded to do, giving the old man
blow after blow about the head and face.
This treatment caused him to almost faint
and to fall upon the lloor. While t his was
going on the other two ran behind the coun
ter and robbod the cash drawer of its con
tents; then making a break for the door
they disappeared. No one being in the
house, sueoor from that quarter was im
possible, and, as it so happened, no one
passed by the store at the time. Immediate
search has been and is still being made for
the robbers, but so far no eluo has been ob
tained.
At McDonough Tuesday morning two
negroes, Carr Tomlinson and Hood Connell,
feu out and created quite a disturbance in
the suburbs of the town, and it resulted in
Connell shooting at Tomlinson twice, but he
did not succeed m bitting him. Tomlinson
proceeded to the nearest justice and pro
cured a warrant for him for shooting with
intent to murder, and placed the warrant in
Sheriff (Hass' hands to make tho arrest.
Tuesday evening id suit 4 o'clock the Sheriff
with Mr. Tidwell, the Magistrate, went
in search of tho villain, and when in
the vicinity of the first, fracas he
sighted the object of his search. He was
in about twenty steps of him. Connell
pulled out his pistol and licgan tiring u|siii the
Sheriff, and as the latter was unarmed it
seemed as if he was rushing on to death
He braved the danger, however, and
walked to the burly rascal, but at the second
tire the ball iiasscd through his hat brim,
uml the third time the pistol was thrust into
Ins face, but it did not daunt him and lie
closed with the scoundrel and then the hard
work began. The negro wigs the stoutest,
and drew his knife and would have prelia
bly killed the Sheriff, had not Mr. Tidwell
coin© up, and between the two they man
aged to overpower the negro and fasten him
securely.

j gentleman's place, who n we know, we told
! him we were sorry that the high water
would keep us from inspecting his fine
swamp limner, having gone there for that
purpose. To our surprise, ho told us that
this need not interfere in the least, and that
he had an old gray mule that knew the
swamps better tlia.ii he or any one else; and
that wo could ride her, and if
trouble enme whether we got lost
< r Wutorhound, we must give her the
reins and she would tie sure to bring us
home safe; that she could walk a log as good
as a dog; that he had on several occasions,
when these sudden freshets came, (his rattle
being in tho swamps and in great danger of
being drowned), sent his mule after them,
saying, “Jane, go bring the cows home.”
The mule, seeming to understand, would at
once start for the swamp. This mule lias
been known to cross a log when it could not
be seen, being two or three feet below the
surf are. Having done so she would proceed
to herd and collect all the cows. After that
sho would make a loud bray and start for
the house. The cattle would follow in single
file across this log to their master's house.

Shipments of luConte |x*ars are now in
order from Law toy. Messrs. Crawshaw &
Cos. hove a I suit 100 bushels, and others from
ten bushels upwards This is really the first
crop, as the trees are too young to liear
heavily yet. The Peen-to and Honey
pouches were very satisfactorv paying crops
this year. A few "Gen. Lee'* peaches were
shipped. These peaches averaged very
large many measuring from 0 to 10>',
luetic* in circumference, but the color unu
llavor was not up to the standard of excel
lence of those ponchos last year, caused by
over fertilizing. This same cause spoils the
flavor of lmth the Peen-to and Honey
peaches, besides injuring their shipping
qualities.
Mr. Lucky, formerly a citizen of Orlando,

to W. J. Mims, of Mims, of the SBOO forfeit
he paid the government for failing to carry
out the contract to set the poles for the
Jupiter telegraph line. Mr. Mims was pre
vented from fulfilling his obligation by a
failure to secure expected funds with whj. b
to do tiie work. On receipt of the forfeit
money, which was voluntarily paid, Chief
.Signal Officer GrAdy forwarded it to the
Secretary of War, asking for instructions
ns to the disposition of tho money, stating
to tho Secretary that “the Chief Signal
Officer, in his long service in the army, has
never before known of a case where the
bond was paid without suit being brought
to enforce the penalty.” Mr. Mims came of
good, honest stock, and he was, no doubt,
much surprised and gratified to find that
the government appreciates such a citizen as
he is.
Sanford Journal: Some weeks ago the
Agricultural Department at Washington
sent us a number of small packages of teo
sinte seed for distribution among our
readers. Mentioning the fact that we hail
the seed for the purpose indicated, very
soon we had applications that would have
exhausted ten times the supply furnished
us. Since then we had heard nothing of re
sults until yesterday, when Mr. C. H. Leffler
brought iii arid placed on tho front
of our office, for general observation,
a shock of the richest, most sucinilent green
forage wo have ever seen. Hundreds of the
throng in our city stopped to admire and in
quire what it was, and without exception
the desire expressed was for some of the
.seed. The tallest spires of the shqck reached
a height of seven feet, ami the estimated
weight, it being about ten inches in diame
ter, was forty-five pounds. Surely teosinto
will prove invaluable to our country, where
the cost of food for stock is oue of our most
serious drawbacks.

of a gentleman who lives in a neighboring
city.

of the parties In the affair, but the circum
stances as related are as follows:
Monday night the Griffin gentleman, in
company with a friend, was walking down
one of our main streets when they en
eountered a gentleman whom they both
knew, but a resident of another place. The
three gentlemen engaged in a pleasant con
versation for a few moments, when a popu
lar young luily's name of this place was
mentioned, of whom the gentleman
from a distance spoke in rather de
rogatory terms. One of the young men was
a special friend of the lady in question, and
remonstrated with the stranger. He reiter
ated his former statement and emphasized it
with tho remark that if he, the Griffin man,
felt inclined to take the lady 's part he would
be pleased to servo hitu.
The Griffin gentleman said: “You have
mailo remarks that arc both unkind and un
true. and entirely unbecoming a gentle
man.” This seemed to anger the other [tarty
beyond control, for, jerking out his pistol,
he lin'd two shots in rapid succession, and
then turning, ran down tho street u short
distance. ’I he party fired at dropped to the
ground at the second shot as though mor
tally wounded, while his shirt
front became quickly dyed with
blood that seemed to come from his lett
breast. Tho third party, who up to this
time remained inactive, now took u hand in
the affair and gently raising his friend to a
sitting posture endeavored to find out the
extent of his injuritts. Tho wounded man
in moments of extreme excitement is sub
ject to fainting spells, and was in
this semi-conscious state when spoken
to by his friend. At length he re
gained full consciousness when ho made a
lull examination of his wound. It was
found that the lull! had gone just between
the left breast and arm, puncturing the skin
of the lut ter member considerably. Had
the Iml 1 gone an inch to left death
would have lieen instantaneous. Our in
formant tells us that when the stranger
saw what he had done lie became almost
frantic with grief and rendered every nossi
the assistance. The gentleman's gn-'t was
genuine, for he offered every apology for
tho language he had used towhru the young
lady, and for Ins cowardly action in shoot
ing mi unarmed man and that without the
slightest provocation. This was how the
affair was amicably settled and kept from
the public.
The wounded gentleman was out as usual
yesterday, and no one save tho parties im
modiately concerned are aware of tho "close
call" he hud the night before
WESTMORELAND AND SMITH.
A Suggestion That the End is Not Yet
—What Will Happen?
A then* ( Ga .) Cor. Atlanta Journal.
Mr. Gantt, of the Banner- Watchman, re
turned Monday night front a visit to Co],
James M. Smith, at Pleasant Hill. He
had an extended interview with that gen
tleman, and says: “At the proper time Col.
Smith will notice Dr. Westmoreland’s
attack, and tako such stcj* as will become a
gentleman.”
This remark is suggestive that further
correspondence or action of a hostile char
acter is contemplated. But the Banner-
Watchman, in an editorial of this morning,
deprecates this mode of settling the diffi
culty. It says: “This publication from Dr.
Westmoreland places Col. Smith in a most
unfortunate condition. While the assailant
of his character is a gentleman in every
way his equal, and a man of established
honor and courage, it is a well
known fact that Dr. Westmoreland
is an old and very feeble man,
who is literally tottering over the verge of
tho grave. Now, the question naturally
arises, can Col. Smith, who is a hale and
vigorous man, in the prime of life and pos
sessed of great physical strength and every
attribute to perfect manhood, afford to
notice this attack from Dr. Westmoreland?
We assert that he cannot. He would place
himself in an unenviable light, and go upon
the field of honor lxrcft of the indorsement
of the public that is due to the assailed
luirty. Rather than vindicate his character
for courage by fighting Dr. Westmoreland,
would Col. Smith bring on himself the stigma
of cowardice by encountering one so much
his inferior in all that goes to make up
vigorous manhood. To challenge or as
sault Dr. Westmoreland would bring upon
Col. Smith the denunciation of the entire
country, and we again assort that he cannot
afford to do so. Tne friends of Col. Smith,
however, know full well that he is not the
man to rest under such a card as that over
Dr. Westmoreland’s name. He will not
let it go by unnoticed, but will take such
stops as will vindicate himself without lay
ing himself open in reality to the charge of
cowardice by encountering this old and
feeble man.”
A correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle
reports what Col. Smith has said about his
difficulty with Dr. Westmoreland and his
interview with Capt. Howard Williams, as
follows:
While I was at Col. Smith’s home last
week the subject of his rumored meeting
with Dr. Westmoreland was brought up at
( he breakfast table, and he treated the whole
thing as a huge joke. He said Williams
called upon him and made known that lie
was the bearer of a challenge from Dr.
Westmoreland. He had to think a moment
before he could recollect what it was all
about. “Then,” said he, ‘‘l asked Howard how
long it had been since I had given the of
fense.” “About eighteen months, I think.”
“Well, I think I ought to have as long to
make up my mind as he took to make up
his. Come back in about eighteen months
and I’ll give you an answer.” Continued
Col. Smith: “I could not harbor malice
against anybody eighteen months. The
thing had passed from my mind, and I
could not go to lighting over a quarrel a
year and a half old. My mad was all gone,”
and the Colonel laughed a merry laugh, as
if nothing was farther from his mind than
fighting a duel.
Remarkable Indian Relics.
From the Albany (tia.) News mid Advertiser.
The attention of Walter Strum, superin
tendent on F. F. Putney’s place at Hard
away, tia., was attracted some days since to
two remarkable stones turned over by the
plow in the watermelon patch. He picked
them up and discovered them to be two re
markable relics of the occupation of the
aborigines of this section. They were long
skillfully made spear heads of the most won
derful workmanship, considering the rude
implements of the Indians, that we have
ever seen. Nothing in the Smithsonian In
stitute surpasses them in interest to the
antiquarian or anthropologist.
One of the spc®r heads is 13 inches long,
3 V inches wide and at its centre
thick, reduced as a Roman short sword to
two sharp edges. The other is only 10
inches long, bnt in other respects similar in
shape ana size to the short swords of the
Romans.
Considering the facilities the Indians pos
sessed for fashioning such formidable
weapons they are wonderfully made, and
must represent months and perhaps years of
tedious labor, and were, doubtless, of price
less value to their possessor.
The flint rock, of which they are made,
abounds on the banks of our river, from
which fact the white man lias reehristened
the Indian Thronateeska the Flint. There
are many evidences that on its banks in this
section were located the Indian workshops
in which the weapons of warfare as well as
their implements for domestic uses wore
fashioned. Rudely-shaped—spoiled in the
making—and perfectly made arrow and
spear beads are still to he found along tho
hanks of the Flint, and tho innumerable
chips of hard flint rook indicate plainly their
origin.
The Indians used the large spearheads
either for offensive operations against their
enemies or in the chase, uud also for domestic
purposes in cutting meats.
As was the custom with the Indians the
deft hand that fashioned and the strong arm
that wielded these spearheads must have
been buried with them, and it is not im
probable that, tlie bones of some warrior,
famous in his day and generation, lie moul
dering iu the earth near where they were
found
