A railroad from Jackson to Indian Spring* will probably be built at an early day. The Twenty-third Georgia regiment will hold its annual reunion at Adairsville, August 31. In Newton county the common upland cotton is better fruited than that on rich land or second bottom. It is said that Cos). W, C. Morrell, late Treasurer of the Western and Atlantic rail road, left 120.000 to the Young Men’s Library and £25,000 to the Atlanta Uni versity. Some negroes found, during the last week, on or near the Bridges plantation in Jasper county, an Indian skull, a jug and a pot of arrow heads, etc., which were washed up ill the recent freshet. Having undergone a satisfactory exami nation for the civil service in December last, Charles Hardin, of Forsyth, has re cently received and accepted an appoint ment in the dead letter department at Washington. Comptroller General Wright announces that the Home Providence Safety Fund As sociation is debarred from doing further business in the State of Georgia because of its failure to make the semi-annual returns required by law and pay the taxes demand ed upon its business by July' 1. The way r of the melon grower is sometimes hard. Last week thirteen cam on the Cen tral were condemned at Oconee, and orders *?i ven to dump them in the Oconee river, which was done. In coses like that the . grower loses his melons and the railroad loses the freight, and the total loss amounts to a good round sum. Old Uncle Billy Toombsdiod at Washing ton, Monday. lie was several years the senior of his master, (Jen. Toombs, whom he has served all his life as a body servant. He died at the Toombs homestead, where ho has always lived. Ho refused to go free When emancipated, declaring that he in tended to “live and dio with old nuirstcr.” Between thirty and forty laliorers, re cently employed on the Buena Vista and Elberton railroad, left Americas for lllakely Monday to work on anew road near that place. There has Iwn considerable trouble recently among the bands employe. I to grade the Buena Vista and Elberton roadJand it is said that of all those at work there last week nil have quit and gone away except some twenty or thirty. Monday L. I\ Elliott, of Hamilton coun ty, Tennessee, made application at the ox eeutivo office, at Atlanta, for the $l5O re ward for tlio arrest and delivery of Leo James, who was wanted in liibb county for the lvncliing of Moore there last year. It will be remembered that Moore was lynched by a partv for the supposed rape of a white gill lit Macon. The grand jury' of Bibb county afterwards found true bills against some of those who were participants In the matter. The reward was not paid Elliott, because his papers were not full and explicit. The average raft hand of the Altnmaha, when he starts for home tilled with whisky, is anything but a pleasant companion. Recognizing this fact, the railroad authori ties pack them all away in a second-class car from Sterling Station, where they get on, to their destination. Last Saturday night, two squads of these fellows got on at the a ovo station, and before they hod gone nny distance were on a regular tare. The ligh ts were put out, and in a minute’s time a lively skirmish ensued. One chan from O’Brien, taking full charge, and with knife in Laud, cut his way right and left, killing one and ‘wounding .others. He is still ut large. A tax fi. fa. to the extent of $2OO was taued from the Comptroller General’s office Monday against, the Singer Sewing Machine Company for the tax upon twenty agent* reported to the office. The taxis $lO upon each agent. Tho company, under the legal advice of its attorney, pays this .tax under solemn protest, and withhold* payment at last until the fi. tu. is issued, for the purpose of allowing the fi. fa. to show the emphatic protest with which it conform* to the law when it is obliged to do so. The connsiny takes the position that the tax of $lO upon the class of agents the Lax reaches is Lura.ui some and unjust, and not lawful in con sideration of tho other taxes paid by it to tho State. Gov. Gordon was sought Monday morn ing by a negro man, who hailed from Talla poosa, in Haralson county. The man de clared that ho had come all the wav to Atlanta to get protection from the Gov ernor, and also to have punished some men who had greatly injured him in Haralson county. He was informod that tho (Sheriff and the courts were the proper parti", to cptily to for tx>th protection and redress. After relating how lie had been beaten up tuid his arm broken, the negro departed, going buck presumably to Tallaixxisa, but it afterward transpired that he hud Ixx-u un caged in a difficulty ut that plai-e, in which nts injuries hod been received, and hud lieen bound over to answer for the of fenac at tho noxt term of Haralson Su|erior Court.

This lady’s hail’ was entirely gray until she paid n visit toDanie] Spring, where she was accustomed every rooming to bathe her head with the water, liar hair at once began to change color, and is now almost black; she used uo preparation on it. This is certainly a valuable discovery, and if properly util ized will make a fortune for tho gentle men who own this property. The Daniel Spring is about six mile* from Union Point, and it* wuter Is controlled by a company of Athenians." On Friday, Aug. 12, Engineer Andrew J. Ford, in the employ of McDonough & Cos., nt Nurroncy. in Appling county, on the I'oKt Tennessee Railroad, ran an engine carrying a nutnhor of wo si choppers to wort. They stopped to repair a broken rail, and the engineer ordered John Pinks ton, a black negro who was slow to move, to go forward and help clear the track. The negro attacked Ford as he got off the engine and sunk the blade of his axe in the top of the engineer’* head. The fireman frightened the negro away, ami Ford, with almost sup erhuman nerve, held hi* head together and ran the engine for ton mile* toward Surroncy finally tainting in Ids cab. Home of hi* brains oozed out, and he became deliriou*. Delirium was succeeded by a comatose state, in which he wn* token to Atlanta Sunday morning, ile died there Monday morning. Toni Wool folk began his third week in juil Monday, and went through the day us though he was becoming accustomed to jail life. He is still kept in hi* cell, except for an hour or lea* early in the morning, when he i* turned into the hallway for exercise.

Tho blocks, on being examined, were found to bo plaster dies, in which the spurious coin was cast. The block*, when placer! together, were nliout two inches square by one inch thick. They were found about three fret under ground at the northeast corner of tho water works grounds, and do not have the appear ance of having been there a very great length of time. The dies are well made, un doubtedly by skillful hands, and the coin produced is a flue representation in appear ance of tho nickel pieces that are in such general circulation, but almost any one on making a careful examination coukl easily :■**> that they wore not genuine.

Prom the Atlanta (Ga.) (.'taintttution. Among the delegates to the Interstate Convention of Farmers was one to whom the people of Georgia, and particularly those of Savannah, owe a great big debt of gratitude And the debt i* cheerfully ac knowledged. The delegate in question was Col. Julius Allens, now a farmer living near States ville, N. C., but formerly of New York city. Col. Allens’ first sight of Georgia was in ISG4, when, as Colonel of the Thirty-first New York, he came with Sherman. He is a nativeof one of the provinces of Germany. The son of wealthy parents in the old coun try, the desire to see the new world, induced him to leave home, when he landed at New Orleans with just one copper cent in his pocket. But he found friends and from them hi* life is the old story of the success which is bound to crown the efforts of able and hon est men. At the outbreak of the war Col. Allens was one of the most prominent to bacco merchants of New York city’. He enlisted with the Thirty-first New York regiment, and the latter part of December of 1804 found him at the head of the regi ment in Savannah. When Sherman’s army entered Savannah there were no provisions in the city, with the single exception of 6,000 tierces of rice. The ]s>ople of the city hold a mass meeting, with Dr. Arnold as chairman, at which a resolution was adopted requesting Gen. Sherman to jiermit them to send the rice North aifd exchange it for provisions. “This would have involved,” said Col. Allens, in the course of a conversation with a Const if nt inn representative, “a delay of fully three weeks. Realizing this, 1 w'ent to the citizens and offered them my services; first stipulating that there should be no commissions, no brokerage, or anything of the sort. I proposed to advance them $50,- 000 on tho rice, thus enabling them to sup ply their wants at once. They offered me the bond of the city for the amount. This I refused, hut they urged it upon me, and I accepted it. "This was the last day of 1864. After thinking over the matter I came to the con clusion that I had a belter plan. I w’ent to Gen. Sherman and proposed that he give me a commission and the necessary authority, and I would go North and would receive donations lor the sufferers iu Savannah I knew that my visit would be successful, and the only thing I stipulated was that the peo ple of Savannah should know nothing about the object of my visit. “I went, and Was the first man from Sher man’s army to reach New Yo. k. My arrival created quite a sensation. I was given the benefit of big headlines in all the papers. ’Allens from Sherman,’was tho way I was heralded. ‘With a commission in behalf of the poor people of Savannah.’ Mass meet tings were held, and upon every occasion I addressed the people, telling them of tile condition of affairs. In loss than four days $87,000 was raised. The government placed at my disposal two steamers. In a week these wore filled with provisions con tributed by the good people of New York, Boston and Philadelphia, at all of which placed I addressed largo meetings. I never had any thing affect mo as much as thi* spontaneous uprising on the part of the citi zens of these Northern cities in behalf of their Southern brethren. It was spontane ous —from the heart. When I told them of the condition of the people in Savannah, they asked no questions but gave, and gave liberally. I spoke in Philadelphia audßos ton ami upon every occasion stated most emphatically that the people had not sent me to ask for provisions for them. “The provisions were duly shipped—sls2,- 000 worth—all purchased by me in open market at the lowest possible price. “Let me relate right here an incident which greatly impressed me: one that oc curred at Boston. I went to Boston at the solicitation of Air. Klivard Everett, one of the best friends the South ever had. I readied there on Sunday evening, Jan. 7. Mr. Everett had been very sick, and the doctor had said that he must not leave his house. He had arranged a meeting at Faneuil for the next morning, and attend he would, despite the protestations of phy sicians and friends. ‘lf you go, it will be at the rtsk of your life,’ they sail!. ‘1 couldn’t risk it iu a better cause,’ was his only reply “After the sneaking, he excused himself on account of his illness and went home. In three days afterward I attended his fune ral, having been selected by his friends to represent the city of Savannah. “On my way baric to Savannah, ’’ con tinued Col. Allens, “I stopped in Washing ton anil called on President Lincoln. Ho complimented me kindly for my work, and said: ‘You fight with love and humanity as your weapons—the noblest possible fight. Tell the people of Savannah that, while armies often take to themselves powers which do not belong to them, all will Iks right in a short time.’ In less than three months he was assassinated. “When I reached Savannah I found that tho provisions had arrived but that the peo ple did not have matters properly arranged for the distribution of them. A store with four entrances, In the center of the square, was obtained as a dispensing station, and I secured the services of officers of the urmy Commissary Department to secure the proper distribution. In a short time every thing was properly organized and the peo ple had provisions in plenty. “Wood ws $2O a coni, and the people had no money with which to purchase it. We next turned our attention to tho matter of fuel and organized u fuel supply commit tee, consisting, us l romemlier it, of the Mayor of the city, Dr. Arnold, Mr. Oetavus Cohen, Mr. Yillalonga, Mr. Macdonald uml myself. We obtained passes for negroes with axes, and a guard, and in one week had tiOO cords of wood in the city, giving it to all who were unable to purchase, and sell ins it to the others at $4 a cord. "After this work had been accomplished I resigned and went North. When I left there was in the city 03 tons of coal, over 1,000 cords of wood and considerable money in the city treasury. “I have never been baric there since. I had hoped to meet some Kavannah people in this convention, hut I have been disap pointed In that. I should like to meet some of the men who were there at the time.” Col. Allens was one of the striking figures in the Farmer*’ convention. He is a man of decided ability and full of good common sense which cropped out whenever ho spike tipm any subject. It is needless to add than ho made many friends among his fellow dolegatos. Rod Hot Subject. Prom the Athene (Ga.) /tanner-Watchman. Rev. W. S. Amistead, of Florida, is now lecturing In Elberton, and has written a let ter to know if ho can get a house and an au dience in Athens. The following is the sub jects on which he lectures; 1. —“Water Baptism”—l am prepared to prove that if “immersion” issenptiial, there Is no God, for I will divest Him of every at tribute. 2. —I am prepared to show that Jesus Christ was not immersed: and if ho was, that he was justly crucified as an impostor. In other words 1 will leave the worm with out a Savior. B.—l am prepared to show that if “immer sion” bo right, no one has ever been baptized by the Holy Spirit and that consequently, as Christ made water baptism and baptism of Holy Spirit essential to entering the kingdom of God, tho whole human race are inevitably lost. t.—That if John the Baptist began this “dipping” for baptism, he was an impos tor: was not sent of Otid, and met a just fute at the hands of Herod—in short, he is damned. B.—l um prepare! to show that, Jesus was baptised by affusion, taughr affusion, and left It la-yon Ia shadow of a doubt that John the Baptist was baptized by affu sion. 6. —I am prepared to show that ail the patriachs and prophets as fur back us Abraham taught and practiced affu sion. 7. lain prepared to show that Jesus Christ taught that affusion for baptism was as old as man. 8. —I am prepart'd to show that, all the Apostles, without distinction were affusion ists, and ever taught and practiced the same for baptism. 9. —I am prepared to show that water lvtptism by “immersion,” whether we re gard its origin, design or subject, is a <Lam nable heresy, without a shadow of Biblical support. A Pedagogue Locates Hades. Prom the Lincolnian (Ga.) Pewn. A colored pedagogue from a neighboring county came intei town a few days ago. He walked the streets with a stately, measured tread, rigged out in the latest and most approved agony. A huge standing collar, a llashy scarf and the jetty ebon hue of his neck showed up in striking contrast. Learn ing that he was a handler and manipulator of the birch, a gentleman interrogated as to his antecedents: “What is your name?” “Grant, sir.” “Grant? Any kin to Gen. Grant?” “Yaas, sir.” “What degree of consanguinity?” “De what?” “I mean what relationship do you sustain to the great Federal General t" “Hah!” “What kin are you to him!” “Oh, yaas, sir, my father b’longed to Gen Grant ’fore ’mancipation. I wns gib to him, so you seo he was my young mars ter. Ho lived then just over in Toliver county.” “What do you do for a livlihood?” “School teacher, side “School teacher, eh! Can you multiply two and a half by two!" “Guess I can, sail.” “What’s the product?” “Sah!” “How much does it make!” “Oh, let me iigger a little,” said he, squinted his eyes a Tittle, and worry ing over some hieroglyphics, answered “ten.” “Wrong; well, you can tell what part of speech 2k is!” “Ain’t it a verb?” “Well, do you know anything about geography? Where is Hades?” • “Ilades, Hades; let me sec—Hades! Oh, yes! No-o—yes, sah ; it’s in Middle Georgia —just above Washington, ’bout a mile and a halt. Wall, boss. I mils’ go,” and he shuffled off at a swinging gait. Photographed at Tybee. Prom the Atlanta (Ga.) Journal. Last week Recorder Anderson visited Tybee to recreate a little. W hile there he was inveigled into getting inside a black and white striped bathing suit. None large enough could be found, hut the Judge was persuaded that decollette battling suits were very fashionable, and the more decollette they were the better. It did not matter that tho Judge’s pants looked like a circus man's tights, he thought of how very decol lette he was and of how the dude* would turn green with envy. A large, a very largo crow and watched the decollette Judge ns he walked along the beach anti plowed up the sand. Atlauta’s Recorder paused a moment to watch tho breakers, and lie was soon siiorting in tho waves like a frisky dolphin. He returned to the city Saturday, and this morning ho received a photograph of himself as lie stood decollettely watching the breakers. Home photographer hidden in a batii house hail boon inspired. The pictures sold like not cakes at Tybee, the hotel barber buying one which lie painted and placed on Ilia front door. The Rooorder is an interesting gentleman at all times, but his friends have failed to see him at his best if they linve not viewed him iu a decollet to bathing outfit. MEDICAL. MA LA 111 A.
