Among the many curiosities, uaeful and ornamental, that will be on exhibition at the State fair, none surpass in interest the latest addition, which is the new breed of hogs brought out by J. P.

Murray, of Swains boro, while on his wny to Williamson's bridge, to look after some hogs, saw where a large rattlesnake had crossed the road.

By the Northeastern railroad, a little White boy by the name of Dover was brought to Athens Wednesday from Haber sham county on his way to Miliedgeville.

While quite young he received a fall, which ftill leaves a dent in his skull, and from this he has been subject to fits. Some time ago be fell into the fire, and lost one eye from this accident. He is probably a hopeless Idiot, and takes no notice of anything around him. Among the suits filed to come up at this term of the Richmond Superior Court are tome quite interesting damage cases. W. R. Aeherd is sung the Dartmouth Spinning Company for £30,000 for injuries sustained while working for them. He was struck by t shaft and maimed for life. Charles Blaok ttone is suing the same compauv for 95,000 for similar carnages, and Mrs. Frances Al len is suing the Augusta Factory for $20,0* Ml for the death of her hnsband which was faused by a wall falling on him while in their employ. At Hawkinsville on Saturday last eleven Warrants were sworn out against W. F. Ferguson and C. F. Roden and their clerks *nd employes. The warrants charged the proprietors and their clerks ami employes with selling whisky in violation of the loeal aption law. The warrants were drawn by Richard C. Jordan, Solicitor of Pulaski County Court, and were issued by Judge Ryan. The parties demanded indictment oy the grand jury, and gave bond for their tppearance at the next term of Pulaski Su perior Court, to be held in November. liast Saturday a man came to Hawkins ville and sold several bales of cotton, and tailed on Capt. Anderson, and said: "Cap lain, I’ve come to-dav to pay you up in full, Ind I told my wife if ever 1 did get able to pay you, I intended to make you a present !if the finest hat or pair of shoes in Hawk insville. You loaned me money, ami stood uy security at the bank, and helped me to jet a start in the world,and my crop this year will set me square,” Amt the man paid up in full and took < apt. Anderson around to the shoe and hat house of Mason & Taylor, Irnl presented the Captain with a five-dol tar hat. Pope Brown, of Pulaski county, has done tome extraordinary farming this year, lie >wns a farm of 125 acres, a portion of the and being within the corporate limits of HawKinaville. Mr. Brown cultivated the .25 acres this year with three horses. He limited eighty acres in cotton aod forty-five ores in corn. He has already picked, tinned, packed and sold fifty-six bales /if otton averaging 50d lbs. to the bale, and iss spent the money. He will got five or lx bales more, making sixty bales to the lightv acres. The forty-five acres in corn fielded over 500 bushels. Good crops of {roundpeas and peavine hay were also nade. Down in Houston county there is an ancient tillage called Old Wilner. It was once the Senility site of the county. While it was in is most prosperous days there was a big ehool there, and there tame a teacher from she North to take charge of the academy. His name was Moore. During his residence 'here he lost his wife whom he loved very iearly He had her buried in the old bury ■ng ground of Wilner, and out of his meager In mli- he created a marble tombstone at the •cud of her grave. As it was located in the wild wood, ns cemeteries generally were then, it was a favorite hunting ground for the juvenile population Thus it came about that' the half obliterated epitaph appears to day, cut, deep in the mossy stone: "Bovs, Don't Shoot Birds Around Martha's Grave The name, Martha Anne Moore, with date ■of birth and death, appear above. It is a curious epitaph, and ns none of the family live in this country it is the only bit of his tory left concerning the old teacher and his wife. An amusing anecdote is related of a Hawkinsville merchant who sold goods on a credit to a colored preacher. The man of the gosjiel had made a very ( Cur crop, and it was evident to the merchant that lie had i a slim chance for his money. *ln Saturday he saw the preacher and said to him: “Bee here, parson, you’ve got to |iav nie your ac count, lam going out to hear you preach to-morrow, and alter the sermon you must pass around the hat and raise a collection.” Sure enough, the merchant was on hand and took a front seat. The old colored divine preached an effective sermon, commenting on hard-hearted sinners, and the rich mail who would not forget the world and lay up his treasures in heaven. After the sermon the hat was passed around, and the mer chant was the first to put in a contribution. He dropped a half dollar in the hat. and the congregation began throwing in dimes, quarters and halves, until several dollars were in the hat. When the preacher retired from the pulpit the merchant fol lowed him and got the entire contents of the hat —just about enough to settle the debt. There passed through Albany Wednesday, en route to the orphans’ home at Macon, a little girl that attracted the attention and elicited the sympathy of every one who learned the story of her orphanage. It was little Cora Lee Jordan, the daughter of th" man Jordan who was assassinated by Sumpter Nieholls, in Baker county, two or three yoars ago. Her mother having died after the assassination of her father, she was left, at the tender age of 5 or *i years, to the cold charitv of the world, and kind ( hristian friends had secured a place for her in the orphans’ home at Macon, She was put on hoard the cars at Camilla, and around her nock was a tag liearing this inscription: “Conductors will please take care of me and deliver me to Rev. L. B. Payne, Superin tendent Orphans' Homo. Macon, (4a.” Nieholls was confined in the jail in Albany for about a year, and tried to commit sui cide. He was taken to Baker county for trial at tho last spring term of Baker i-iupe rior Court, a perfect wreck in body and mind, and there died after it had lieen de cided that he was a fit subject for tho luna tic asylum. Nat Anderson, who lias been the drum mer of the Salvation Army at Atlanta for the last six months, has put aside his drum and says that lie is done ivit-h the Salvation ists. He says that Col. Light is an old hog, that he pockets ail of the money and divides with no one. Referring to Col. Light, he says: “Col, Light just gathers in all the money in sight, and he is getting rich. I lost all my business on account of the army, and when 1 wanted to sell a history of my life and conversion, with a few gospel songs, he said 1 must give him all the money. I asked him where I could get bread and meat to feed my family, atid he told me to trust in the Lord. That fellow just takes it all and doesn’t do any trusting himself. 1 have lieen a drummer in the army for eight months and missed only seven nights. You know Capt. Hildreu, at Rome, left the camp because Col. Light gobble*! up all the money.” Anderson says that Capt. Ella Brucker is among the few good women con nected with the army. He says that she I eft Atlanta on account of the conduct of Col. light toward her. Some of his com. ments on the morals of the members will not bear publication. The Franklin A McDonald mine, in the eastern part of Cherokee county, is one of the best and most extensively anil success fully worked gold mines in Georgia. The company working it is not an incorporated concern, but is composed of J. MeC. Creighton, of Philadelphia, and James B. Young, of Pittsburg, Fa. This work has developed two characters and two grades of ores, each requiring a different treatment. One is a lngli grade ore, strictly a sulphuret, requiring treatment in the reduction as such, and is the same as worked forty years ago by the late Mrs. Franklin, John Pasco and others. A recent letter from there states that “there is enough of this elan of ore to keep a 40- stamp mill at work continuously for sev eral generations.” The other is a very largo vein, or closely connected body of veins of low grade ores, 200 feet m width, assaying $1 to $5 per ton, and can he safely counted on paying 91 per stamp in a well regulated mill. There is talk of forming a stock company and erecting a 1,000-stamp mill with every modern improvement and appliance for saving gold, to be worked by steam power and electricity. FLORIDA.
