The House General Judiciary Committee, at its meeting Monday, recommended the passage of the bill providing that the liens of mechanics and laborers shall be good for 120 days or four months. At Griffin, Monday. Henry Wimberly, an extra hand running on the Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama railroad, nail his leg cut off by the engine while attempting to jump on the cow-catcher. Prof. J. T. Newton, principal of the R. B. Lee Institute, at Thomas ton, has received an appointment in the War Department, in "Washington, at a salary of $2,000 per annum, and has tendered his resignation to the board of t rustees to take effect at once. At Dublin Sunday night a house near the court house square was totally destroyed by fire. There was no insurance. The house was owned by W. B. Burch, and occupied by James M. Holland, formerly of Tooms boro, and W. F. Smith. The Are was acoi dental, and loss amounts to SI,OOO or $1,200. At Atlanta Monday night al>out 10 o’clock a white child, apparently only a few days old, was left on the steps of the residence of F. X. Blylv, <5 Calhoun street. The child was well dressed and was wrapped up in a handsome shawl and rested in a basket. The child was givon to a lady residing at 10 Jenkins street, who will adopt it. In the United States Circuit, Court, at At lanta, there was (lied Monday, a suit insti tuted by the United States against Samuel X. Dorati. IV A. Savar, S. A, MeErrich aud J. T. James, .sureties on the bond of S. X Dorset?, former poetanaster of Douglas ville. The suit is for the recovery of com missions illegally retained by said Dorsett as postmaster in ISS-t, 1885 and lHSti. Gov. Gordon has received an invitation from the President of the- Bouthern Forestry Congress to.attend the.third annual congress of that body at Huntsville, Via., Oct. 2i. It is not known what disposition the Gov ernor will make ut the invitation, the time of meeting being too far removed at present to permit him to tell whether his public duties will allow him to attend. The Gov ernor is understood to be in full sympathy with the work of the congress, and will no doubt be present if he can find the time and can do so without neglecting public duties. Agricultural Commissioner Henderson is in daily receipt of letters from parties who desire to be appointed as oil inspectors at the various points mentioned in the bill passed recently by the House. The com pensation of these inspectors will vary in amount from $1,200 to $1,500 per annum. A provision of the bill will prevent in spectors of commercial fertilizers from ac cepting places as oil inspectors, the bill in tending to keep these offices separate. Under the old law governing the insjiection of oil in this State it is charged that in spectors made fees out of their oflice aggre gating several thousand of dollars each year. There appears to be some feeling on the part of some of the Senate Committees that the House Committees huve not acted upon the Senate bills with promptness and dis patch that has characterized the action of the Senate Committees in regal’d to House bills. An ex parte statement discloses the fact that all House bills have been promptly considered by the Senate Committees, while the Senate bills are piled up on the desks of House Committees, many of them not hav ing received any attention at all. It is un derstood that a well known chairman of a prominent Senate Committee sent word to the corresponding committee in the House that he would not act on House bills until some of the Senate bills were disposed of. Principal Kocqior Towers said Monday that nothing had been heard of the four convicts who escupod from the camp on the Augusta and Chattanooga railroad. The guurd who had charge of the prisoners made off also, and has not beou heard from. It appears that his flight was duo entirely to fear of prosecution lor allowing the escape, as it is not supposed by any onot tint there was any collusion between him and the es caped convicts. The law requires every lessee to pay to the State the sum of S2OO for each convict that escapes, and W. B. Lowe & Cos. will thus lose SBOO by this es cape. Sixty days are given the lessee with in which to pay this amount, that time being intended to give him an opportunity to recapture the men. It seems to be pretty well taken far granted by the people generally that the General Assembly will pass the pardon board bill. This bill provides for three Par don Commissioners, to be appointed by the Governor. The board is only temporary, lasting until July, 1888, but the pay is siif fleient to make it an object of some con sideration, the members receiving the same mileage as memlicrs of the legislature and $0 per diem. Already it appears that ap plications are lieing received by the Gov ernor for places on the board, as a well known gentleman who frequently gets on to news in the executive oflice said yester day that the Governor was in almost daily receipt of applications. The names of those applying could not be ascertained. A shooting affray occurred near Messrs. Enterkin & Puckett’s saw mill, about two miles from Tallapoosu Monday morning early, between two of the mill employes named Brooks and Argro, both white. The report is that they hail a difficulty Sunday night noar the null at a house of ill repute Argro drew a pistol on Brooks. Brooks Monday morning stole Mr. Puckett’s pistol, which is a -G oalilire, and was in a road near the mill, when he discovered Argro concealed in the brush of a tree top. No sooner had he seen Argro than he and ew the pistol and Aral one shot at Argro. He then ran off, leaving his antagonist pierced through with the bul let, wbicli was well aimed, striking hitn in the breast and coming out opposite its en trance, tnrough the back. It is said that tho wounded man shouted pitifully until assist ance came to his relief. Ho also had a pis tol in his grasp when found, anil it is be lieved that he had taken this position to shoot Brooks as he passed. He died iato Monday night. The Standard Oil Company is making a fight before the Legislature with a view of defeating the Schofield bill providing for the inspection of oil. Under the pnwnl luw the Standard Oil Com|>any has a monopoly of the oil business in Georgia and in the Hnuth. This company owns all the oil tank tors in the country, and ship their oil In anks, paving the inspection lec of ! _,c. nor gallon. This rule is made for the inspecting of oil in bulk, the same being trims ported in immense oil tanks, while oil transported in barrels cost* on in spection fee of Jc. |**r gallon. Under Mr. Schofield's bill shipment* of oil, whether in barrels or tanks, in quantities of over 400 gallons, the foe will be per gallon; put ung all manufacturer* and ship|s<rs on the aunw footing. The bill has pausd the Houw and is before ♦in* Henato. Uepri -tentative* of that corporation are now actively at work trying to detent tho bill Mrlsit, it comas up for consideration When tlw conductor of tin'fast train went through his car Monday afternoon, lust after waving Atlanta, lie found in the white coach a colored woman, whom he told of the company’s arrangement about sejiarnte coaches, but she ignored his wishes and re fused to comply with his request that she change cars, saving that she preferred the white coach, and intended to remain. A passenger telegraphed from the next station to Conyers to some friends there inform ing them of the situation, and returned to the car to bide his time and the arrival at Conyers. The colored woman had quietly settled down, elated with her seeming vic tory, tint her pleasant dreams were rudely disturbed when the town of Conyers was reached. A committee, self-deputated, en tered the coach from both ends, and by some subtle persuasion unknown to any one outside of Conyers, quickly induced the re fractory passenger to change her opinion, and she “folded her tent” and retired to the seclusion of the colored coach. Primus Jones, the member from Baker, returned to Atlanta Monday from a visit to his plantation. He reports that he will make a good crop of cotton and corn, but that his crops of peas, cane and potatoes will lie short. Representative Jones says that he has already picked eighteen bales of cotton to the plow, and has marketed fif teen bales to the plow. He will get twenty five bales to tho plow, and, in addition, will make 300 bushels of corn to the plow. Had there been no fi-eshet or drought, he is satisfied that he would have made at least thirty bales of cotton to the plow, ius tea/1 of twenty-five. The drought, lie says, has injured his prospects for peas, potatoes and corn, and that his crops in their products will bo short. Relating his experience in farming, ho says that he makes more cotton and corn with eight plows than he did when he ran twenty, and ascribes his sucoess to intensive farming. Mr. Jones says that his success in fanning this year is greater than any season since lie commenced digging a living out of the ground, and in consequence feels corres pondingly happy. On last Friday night as a party of young people were returning to Cedartown from camp meeting at the Robins’ camp ground, a frightful accident befell them at the Ako bridge across Cedar creek, and their escape from death seems like a miracle. The party were in a hack and consisted of Horace Mc- Ghee, Fierce Yarbrough and Miss Mary Chambers, Charles Barton and Miss Hattie Huntington, Miss Irene Jones, who was of the party being left at her home. As the hack was driven on the middle span of the bridge a cracking noise was heard and the bridge with the hack and occupants was pre cipitated into the stream. Tho fall was more than 20 feet, and the water 10 feet deep. The hack was turned into the water at the upper side of tho bridge and tho party began a scramble for softy. Pierce Yarbrough assisted Miss Ilattie Hunting ton and by struggles and the aid of tho floating timber they reached the bank, though Miss Hattie had twice sunk. Miss Chambers was found clinging among the timbers and she was assisted out. Charles Barton found his way to terra firma without much inconvenience. Having safely landed the young ladies and left them dripping, they next went to the horses, still struggling in the water, and succeeded in cutting them loose, when they swam to the bank. The vehiclo was recovered the next day, but in u very much damaged condition. At the April term of Wilkinson Superior Court. James Lavender was indicted for shooting at another. Throe gentlemen be came bondsmen for him. About two months ago it was found he had disappeared. His bondsmen offered a reward for niin, and de tectives were soon upon his trail, and soon succeeded in settling the fact that he lodged at home, as he was seen to enter the house. The bondsmen were notified of this fact, and they secreted themselves near the house, saw him enter, followed close upon hitn and demanded admittance. Aftor some delay they were admitted, and a thorough search was instituted, but no Lavender could be found. This was repeated two or three times, when at. last on Saturday night last, they again saw him enter tho house, and knew he was surely there. They resolved to find him if the ashes had to bo sifted. In moving tho furni ture around, u small trunk was found to lie very heavy, and suspicion fell upon this as l>eing the hiding place of the prisoner, but how a man six foot tall could pack himself in so small a trunk was the question. The kif,- was demanded, but Mrs. Lavender said tiie trunk belonged to her sister, who lived three miles away. The party decided to send for the key anil investigate contents. A messenger was dispatched for the key, and the'party sat down to await his return. Something could be hoard inside the trunk as a man breathing. In due time the mes senger arrived, the trunk was opened, and the imping six-foot Lavender was fouud coiled up in the small trunk. Ho was lodged in jail at Irwinton Saturday to await trial in October. A man going by tho namo of Rev. J. N. Kilebrew, was arrested on Sept. 10, near Jeffersonville, in Twiggs county, by Deputy Sheriff Hunter. Monday he was brought to Eastman by W. "VV. Thomas, of Eastman, and put on" trial before K. A. Horton, notary public, charged with cheating and swind ling, aud obtaining goods as a minister of the Gospel under the assumed names of J. X. Kilebrew, alias John D. Adams and William Kilebrew. He ploaded guilty to all tho charges, amt was committed to jail in default of a SSOO bond. Kilebrew has a wife and three children in Johnson county. He left them to tho mercy of this cold world and the liberality of the good people of that section and came to Laurens county, while ho courted and gained the affections of a youug lady and was about to marry a second time when his Johnson county his tory overtook him. He was very kindly asked by the intended bride’s brother to vacate that settlement, and it did not take any persuasion. Before he marched down into Lumber city, with the news to his Baptist brethren that he was sent there by the New Ebenezer Association to work up, or look after those churches, with a view to forming anew association, he went to Hazlohurst and duped one Baptist brother out of a good suit of clothes, lie made himself very much at home at Rev. J. D. Thompson’s and spent most of his time there, where he wa.. beloved so well that ho soon gained the confidence of Mr. Thompson. There he borrowed some money and other articles from them and went to Messrs. H" hid don & Holland’s still and there met Mr. B. V. Holland, whom he told* that Mr. Thompson s**nt him over to get $lO, and he (Thompson) woulo return it to Mr. Holland in a few (lays. Then Kilebrew took the first train and left tho locality. Mr. Hol land met Rev. Mr. Thompson, aud learned from him that he had novor spoken to Kilo brew about the money, nor had Kilebrew to him. They furthermore learned that| he I was never licensed to preach, and that he was a pretender, and was using this as a means to defraud the public. FLORIDA. Brookßville is to have an artesian well. Gov. Perry left for Philadelphia Monday, to attend the Constitutional Centennial. On Wednesday the Commissioners divided Volusia county into teu justice’s district*. Tile African Methodist Episcopal Church will hold a camp meeting at Pemberton Kerry, Wept. 22. The sum of SHO was realized last Friduy by the Lie lies’ Aid Society of Altoona— which will go to help finish the church. A movement is oil foot at Bt. Augustine to pave Bt, George street awl the Shell road with asphalt, and start a lino of lienlic coaches. A meeting of ull the cattle owners of De Soto county will be held at Arcadia Thurs day to select recording officers ami ills cuss matters of great iiiqiortanoe to cattle men. Willie Woolfe, of Titusville, contemplates putting in ten or more acres of his rich j hummock Jand In early vegetables for ship j in. lit to Northern markets Ho expect* to realize from $250 to $505 per acre.

The huge derrick at the Cathedral at Bt. Augustine, fell with a tremendous crash Moudav morning. Borne say it was occa sioned bv faulty construction, while others are equally certain that it was caused by the carelessness of workmen. During a rush of business Thursday a clerk in a (vopular store at Bt. Augustine, accepted ass Confederate bill in payment for a small purchase, und handed back $4 85 in good silver of the coinage of Uncle Sam. Tho bill was afterwards redeemed. It is more than probable that St. Augus tine will go “dry” for at least four (lavs. The liquor licenses all expire Sept. 30,and the County Commissioners will not meet until Oct. 4to act on the new iietitions. Tho only way to avoid a general closing will be for the commissioners to hold a special meeting, which, it is said, they are not likely to do. The second attempt to incorporate Winter Park was made Saturday, but failed, owing to the lack of a quorum at a meeting called for the purpose. A unanimous sentiment in favor of incorporation prevails, but the unfortunate nomination of a strongly parti san ticket caused the absence of nearly one half the voters. A faulty record was a fatal flaw in the first attempt. Plans for a third trial are under consideration, and it is probable that a satisfactory and harmoni ous result may soon be reported. G. R. Pitzer, the present Postmaster of New Smyrna, and Christopher Westall, a prominent merchant, are circulating a peti tion asking that Mr. Pitzer be continued in liis office, but. if that is impossible, for Mr. Westall to be appointed in ids stead. It is lieing extensively signed. Milton Bryan is circulating a paper which indorses him as a good Democrat, a competent man, and one acceptable to tho people. It also has many signatures. All throe are well liked and re spected here, and between a desire to oblige all and a tear of offending at least one of them, some feel like taking to the woods. It is now said that Henry M. Flagler, is not content with building at St. Augustine the most magnificent hotel in the world. Information has been received from one who is supposed to know that Mr. Flagler will shortly commence the erection of another enormous hotel on tho land which he has filled in on the east side of the Bt, Sebastian. Two hundred men have been working for months in filling in tho old marsh bordering on the river, until old residents aro puzzled to discover landmarks with which thoy were formerly well ac quainted. Mr. Flagler lias already trans formed the old town and is now looking to ward the suburbs. Francis has formed an “Industrial and Citizens’ Business Association” in the inter est of fruit raisers, truck farmers, and all engaged in any industrial pursuit. Dr. Cyins, of the Penial Horticultural Society, was in attendance at the meeting for organ ization, aud was enrolled as a member of the society. He addressed the meeting in a very pleasing and practical manner, and made some valuable suggestions. The point lie dwelt upon as being of paramount im lrtanoe wns the harvesting or disposition of the orange and other fruit crops. He urg'd united effort and harmony among the members, and especially frequent meetings for the puri* woof discussing matters of in terest for the general good, and to determine upon some plan of universal action by all the societies in Florida. The filibusters under Beriben who sailed from Long Rev, twenty-five miles from Key West, in the sloop Dolphin, landed in Cuba, noar Mantanzas, Sept. 7, and lied into the interior, as hitherto reported. Later Cuban advices received at Key West Monday, states that four of the bandits who went to a house to get dinner, were informed on and surrounded by the civil guard. The guard, however, was received by a volley from Winchester rifles, and the bandits fought their way out and escaped. They were pursued and Manuel Garcia was killed, and two others wounded. Papers found among parts of their outfit left at the house show that both Torres and Bernet, now in Key Westj were to huve been members of the expedition. The sloop Dolphin has re turned to Key West. The Collector of Cus toms and United Btates Attorney are inves tigating the case. Mclntosh was aroused Saturday night by an excitement, which occurred at the store of W. E. Allen & Cos. A burglar had en tered the store about 11 o’clock or before, and was discovered before he got away with his plunder, which consisted of a general assortment of merchandise that he had bundled up, and amounted to about S2OO worth. Just before he was ready to leave he was called to the door to come out.. He did so, opening fire with a Winchester rifle as ho opened the door. He shot four times at S. 11. Gaitskill, who returned the fire with a double-barrel shotgun loaded with small shot and succeeding in wounding the thief in the foot, who, nevertheless, came out, running tho gauntlet of shots from Mr. Allen, who fired live times, nnd from Dan Barry, who fired four shots. The thief was tracked by his blood to Lochbie, where he stole I)r. Walker’s horse to make his eseape. The horse was found Sunday evening about three miles south of Reddick's. The thief is yet at large. He did not take the pur loined goods with him. Seventeen shots were fired in all. The burglar was a col ored man, coal black, heavy set, not very tall, and is known to bo wounded in the right foot, and probably in the right side or shoulder. It is only a short time sinco that Harry Kane, a former harness maker, and a resi dent of Jacksonville, was released from cus tody upon a charge of being concerned in the sinking of the steamer Twilight, and the murder of Engineer Grant Connor. There was no evidence, however, introduced to substantiate the charge, and be was conse quently released. Even before that time there existed a bad state of feeling in and about Middleburg between Messrs. Chalker and Haughton’s respective friends, growing out of an old feud, and tho arrests and ac cusations growing out of the Twilight af fair seems to have somewhat intensified this bn/1 state of affairs, and resorts to arrests, imprisonment nnd court* have recently been made. A few days ago the employes of Mr. Chalker’s log camp and log railway in Clay county were arrested at the instance of Air. Haughton ou the charge of trespassing upon his land. They were taken to Orange Park before Justice Copeland nnd required to furnish bail each in the sum of SSOO for ap pearance before the Circuit Court. The bail was furnished. Ou Wednesday last Kano and a colored man in the employ of Uaugli ton were arrested upon a warrant sworn out by Chulker, charging them with malicious mischief—obstructing the log railroad. Justice Kirkpatrick, of Green Cove Spring, required but of them in the sum of SIOO each. Thoy could not furnish it, and Kane and the negro were committed to jail. AT SIXES AND SEVENS. An Entire Coach of Passengers Thrown Into Confusion. From the Augusta (Oa.) Chronicle. Friday night, when tho Central train pulled out of the shed, a white man was comfortably seated iu the ladies car with his feet on the seat in front, quietly pulling ohmv .it a cheap cigar. By the time the conductor mu le his appearance, he had the coach well tilled with tho malodorous breath of his “two for.” On lieing told of the rules prohibiting smoking iu that car, lie promptly attempted to throw the offen sive weed out of the window, hut was ■lightly hindered in the operation by the sash, which was down. However, with the assistance of the conductor tie offensive ar tide was led uiuiuipen window aud dropped out. With sighs of relief the conductor and )sseugen> settled down into the ordinary routine of train life, lint their dreams of quiet Were liow rudely dttturlied, much to the edification of a few hearties* drummer* who, just at this time, returned from the smoking ear mid were wlpiwwr* of the strange and startling actions of the recent otlvinter of the cou. ( *uiy rulee. Ho wax now thoroughly undressed, and, save the presence of his shoes, in fit trim for retiring, but instead of doing so he became suddenly desirous of cooling his parched gullet that had been in flamed by the day’s potations, nnd started out in search of the cooling draught. Sev eral lady i/asseiigers were very much morti fied, and evidenced their inclination to faint at once by screams when the horrid man passed them in his not over-clean base ball suit, going for water and "returning. Ho finally reached his seat and the majority of hit" clothe*, and oozily curled up, and in a few moments was dreaming of all the charms of an anti-prohibition town. Here he was found by the conductor, it all hav ing happened between his putting tho cigar off and making a return trip through tho train. Collecting tho sleeper and his discarded garments, in cluding tiie overcoat of a fellow-passenger that had been put one side carelessly, was tho work of a moment, an 1 he was dragged, now hopelessly drunk, to one side until the next station should is: reached, and here he, his clothes, maudlin visions and three hot ties of bad liquor were nut off. When the train had pulled away his satchel was found stored away under the seat, and it being open a peep within revealed a soiled paper collar and a jug of something. Several ot tho party testel the concoc tion, ami grave doubts about the particular nature and quality of the stuff were ex pressed;some pronounce 1 it “agaric,” others “nerve food,' and a few thought it very vile whisky, and felt sure the man must have secured it with designs oil someone and drank of it through mistake. At all events it was a deadly concoction, and warranted to do its work, at forty yards. Moral.—-Avoid laid liquor. MEDICAL.. Darbys Prophylactic FLUID. Use it in every Sick-room for Safety, Cleanliness and Comfort. IT will purify tho air and render it wholesome. The removal of the effluvia which are always given off in the sick-room, promotes the re covery of the patient, and the safety and com fort of the physician aud attendant Persons waiting ou the sick should use it freely. Water in which the sick are bathed should contain a small quantity of the Fluid; it will render the skin soft and pleasant, allay itching, prevent bed sores, scars, etc , removing all heat and irritation, together with any unhealthy or offen sive emanations from the body.
