Foute went into a barber shop and was

The Legislative Finance Committee that

rail meed of praise for faithfulness aud hon
esty. The report also contains the state
ment of the State's exact financial condi
tion, which will be of great interest to the

Friday Comptroller General Wright re
ceived $275 dividend from some telegraph
stock owned by the State of Georgia hi the
Southern and Atlantic Telegraph Company.
The company is a defunct one, but the pay
ment of the dividend is in some wav or other
guaranteed by theWastern Union Telegraph
Company. It has been so long since the
stock was secured that no one seems to
have any positive information just how
the State secured possession of it. The
dividend comes with regularity and
goes to the general fund in the State treas
ury.

Several years ago, when Janies A. Allison,
of Cuthbert, was clerking for Allison & At
kins, he was sent into the country to collect
an account, with instructions to “board it
out" if he could collect it no other way. He
reached the house a while before dinner and
was told by the debtor that he could not
possibly pay the bill. Jim told him what
his instructions were and awaited dinner.
Dinner was announced and Jim partook
with the family. After watching him de
vour one meal the debtor decided it would
be cheaper to pay the hill than to board Jim
a week, went to a neighbor, borrowed the
money and settled in full.
Fort Valley Mirror: In a correspon
dence between Gen. C. D. Anderson and his
old color-bearer of the Sixth Georgia, Col.
U. M. Gunn, of Macon, Gen. Anderson in
forms us that CoL GunD, in preparation for
the review on Oct 26 at Macon, (which he
is much interested in) sent him a present of
a suit of clothes, on Wednesday, in which
he wished him to appear, while command
ing the old Sixth Georgia. The General
says he has his old Brigader General’s coat,
for which he paid $2,300, and we insist he
must wear that The colors of the Hixth
Georgia, which General Anderson will take
up with him, are the same that Col. Gunn
was carrying when he received his wound
in the seven days battle around Richmond.
On Thursday evening last H. C. Durham,
Jr., who lives about a mile from Watkins
ville, traded for a Texas pony that had been
partly broke, and carried him home. That
night he tied it with a rope that he might
catch it easily nsxt morning, we suppose,
but it became frightened and began to surge
against the rope, when it broke, the pony
falling flat to the ground. In the fall it
struck a sharp stake which ran completely
through the body, killing it almost instant
ly. One day last week while Lewis Amier
son was carrying a couple of the same kind
of stock home one of them took a notion it
would not lead, and began to pull back on
the rope it was tied with, but the rope being
extra strong it could not break it. But be
ing determined in its purpose it continued
to swing back until it broke its own neck
rather than be led.
Aleck Morris, who murdered Daniel
Lockett and cut the two unfortunate wom
en. near Madison, nearly two weeks ago, is
still at large. There is no clue as to his
whereabouts, but hopes are yet entertained
for hi* capture. Lucy, the wife of Lockett,
whose windpipe Morris severed with his
knife, is still living. Hhe says that Morris
committed the murder in order to get Lock
ett's money, and did succeed in carrying off
over si)o, which the murdered man had
stored away iu a small bag or wallet. This
same wallet, it is said, wus seen and de
scribed by one of Morris’ friends, in New
ton county, the morning after the murder,
while Morris was displaying its contents.
It is aLso claimed that the murderer used
chloroform on his victims before commit
ting the crime, as a bottle containing the
drug was found near the house after the
murder.
Bill Jon ob, an Atlanta detective, has
caught the negro who tore up tho school
books at Montezuma not long since. He
suspected a negro, and sent another negro
from Macon to Montezuma to employ him
to keep bar. In Macon, Glen Williams
alia* sam Robinson, confessed the crime,
and was arrested and taken to Montezuma
Sunday and put in jail. He says that he
and another party, whose name he intends
to give, got drunk and tore up the books,
and that they intended to break the piano
up with an ax, but vvas afraid somebody
would hear them. The negro ha* been em
ployed by W. P. Maxwell, at Spalding.
Williams begged the detective not to carry
him to Schlev county, as he was afraid tho
| people over there would hang him, as he
| had stolen some corn and attempted to out.

Gov. Gordon has commuted the flue and
' imprisonment of Dr. John G. Elder, of Jas
j per county, from #l5O aud twelve uiuntli*’
I imprisonment to a fine of $75. Dr. Eider
was convicted at the September term, 1867.
of Jasper Superior Court of tho offense of
furnishing liquor to a minor, and the sen
tence above was imposed. Avery large
jmtition was presented to the Governor a*k
j ing for the pardon of Dr. Elder, or the com
-1 mutation of his sentence. It was shown
that he was in the habit of prescribing
whisky as a stimulant and a tonic to the
father of the minor; that he could not recall
the circumstances of the offense for which
he was convicted; that he had always borne
a good character, and the officers of the
court, the grand and traverse jurors, to
gether with members of the bar and minis
ters of the gospel, united with a large num
ber of citizens in asking for the pardon.
The panel's were made out Friday and for
warded to the Sheriff of Jasper county.
It is now very unlikely that the State
House will be decorated on the occasion of
President Cleveland* visit. The House of
Representative* has insisted upon the state
ment that it has no authority or power to
appropriate money for such a purpose. Its
refusal is not, based upon any unwillingness
to decorate in honor of President Cleveland;
the enthusiastic cheers that greeted the
name of the President in the allusions to
him in Mr. Randall's address in the House
show unmistakably how the House feels to
wards the chief executive. There is a sin
cere belief that the appropriation would lie
unconstitutional, and an effort was made to
collect the necessary amount of money by
voluntary subscriptions. Quite a nice sum
has been realized so far, but not enough yet
to justify an attempt toward decoration.
The Adjutant General, who lias charge of
the public buildings, believes that it will be
better not to decorate at all than to attempt
a decoration that will be certain to fall far
below what is expected of a great State in
such a matter.
A little sensation was created at the store
of Clement* & McCall, at Buena Vista, Fri
day morning, on account of #1,200 being
missing, which they thought was stolen.
They received a large safe on that morning
with a great many inside drawers, and it
was with some difficulty that they found
M-e right keys to unlock them. In the ex
citement Jim Lowe hail unlocked the bot
tom drawer in the safe and placed a little
drawer containing the money in it and had
forgotten that the drawer had ever been
opened. The money was missed and
every drawer that they thought had
been opened was searched over and over,
the cash drawer under the counter was ram
sacked in every hole and corner, and they
eveu looked behind boxes and barrels, but
the package of money could not be found.
Messrs. Clements and McCall began to grow
nervous, aud a pallor came to their cheeks
which the loss of $1,200 would bring to any
one’s cheek these hard times. Finally some
one standing by said the bottom drawer
had been opened, and mentioned the num
ber of the key that would unlock it. This
key was placed nervously into the lock, the
drawer was opened, and there the little
drawer containing the cash was found, and
with it a rosy hue came back to the cheeks
of the proprietors of the store.
A pathetic request was made of the Gov
ernor Friday by a convict named McAllis
ter, confined at the Chattahoochee brick
yard. McAllister is working out a sen
tence for the offense of shooting at a man
named O'Shields some time ago. Several
petitions for his pardon have been made,
but each time a protest was entered by
O'Shields against the pardon. Within the
past t'eW weeks O’Shields has withdrawn
his objections, and it is very likely that Mc-
Allister will be pardoned, as there are a
number of mitigating circumstances con
nected with the case. The request made
Friday was by telegraph. McAllister
received a message that his
sister was dying in Atlanta with
a summons to come to her bedside. He
telegraphed the Governor the facts and
asked tnat he be allowed to wear citizen's
clothes. The Governor was uot in when
the telegram arrived, and as there was but
very little time for the answer to reach Mc-
Allister in time to take the train to reach
his sister, nothing could be done. The law
allows the Governor no discretion or au
thority in the matter of relieving convicts
from wearing stripes. The law is obliga
tory, and while frequently cases arise
where circumstances would seem to warrant
temporary release in the matter, the execu
tive has no power to do so.

Last Sunday a dog belonging to O. Futch,

nut, about an inch long, covered with fine,
downy, slate-colored feathers, spotted with

stings, and theie are two villainously sharp
ones near its mouth. Dr. Lawrence will
preserve the specimen as a curiosity.
Titusville Star: We received Tuesday
evening from Mr. Gardner S. Hardee, of
Rockledge, an orange grown on his grove,
which caps the climax for size over any
thing iu the State or elsewhere. The variety
is known as the Jjondon navel. It is fifteen
and a half inches in circumference, anil
weighs exactly two pounds and two ounces.
This specimen is not a grape-fruit, or pome,
or any other overgrown variety of the citrus
family aside from the orange, but is a bona
fide orange in every respect. It is the
largest, by far, that has been recorded in our
State.
The Secretary of the Interior has re

tute suit against William S. Dorsey,

Chipley, to recover the value of 719 rail
roan ties, which were cut by the former
from public lands, and delivered through
the latter to Division Superintendent
Marsh, of the Louisville and Nashville rail
road, and paid for at the rate of 30c. per
tie. He suggests that if the attorney deems
it expedient, to make the railroad a party
to the suit he shall do so.
Jacksonville Times-Union: Too much
credit cannot be given Mr. B. F. Dillon,
manager of the Western Union Telegraph
Company in this city, for the prompt man
ner in which the news of yellow fever at
Palatka was received at this city, which
enabled the Board of Health to cut off all
communication with that place before a
single person had time to come through
after the news was made public in l’alutka
that a man had died from yellow fever.
As soon as the Times-Union reporter heard
of the facts and went to his office, Mr.
Dillon went himself to the instrument and
sent the message asking for information,
and himself took the reply. Also, when
Dr. Mitchell went to the telegraph office to
inquire more thoroughly into the situation,
Mr. Dillon gave the matter his personal at
tention. lie not only rendered, in this
way, most valuable ana timely service, but
has also tendered the Board of Health the
free use of the wires during the emergency.
His action in the matter should be most
heartily appreciated by all.
