6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OT THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. two Texas Ponies Sacrifice Their Lives to Their Stubbornness Near Watkinsville-Buena Vista Merchants Have a Lively Soarch for $1,200 That They Had Put Into Their Safe, and Could Not Find. GEORGIA. About 2,500 bales of cotton have been re ceived at Hartwell this season. The same time last year about 600 bales. The Marshallville Cider and A inegar Company ships out thousands of gallons of cider every week. The shipment on Wednesday alone was nearly 2,000 gallons. H. A. McMahan, of Crawford, has in his possession a gold dollar bearing the date 1752, which makes it 135 years old. It is a Spanish coin and somewhat larger than the gold dollar of the present day. The old town hall at Athens will come under the auctioneer's hammer in a few das’®. This is one of the old landmarks of Athens, and has been the scene of many a political contest and midnight brawl. George Butt, of Buena Vista, ginned two hales of cotton last week which turned out well. Out of 1,420 [Winds of seed cotton he made 526 pounds of lint, and out of 1,222 pounds of seed cotton he made 443 pounds of lint. A sister sued a brother in a Justice court in Taylor county not long ago for $5. The case was called, and the Justice urged the counsel to go ahead, when the defendant got up in open court and said: "Here is your #5. Take it. ’’ One day last week Tom Andrews, of Montezuma, found a black bear in a hollow gum tree down the river at a point called the “Cut Off.” He cut the bear out of the tree, and killed him with an ax. Bruin weighed seventy-five pounds. A. P. Richter, of Madison, is the possessor of a rare and interesting relic of the late war. It is a neatly finished iron cot, and is the bed on which Gen. Albert Sidney John ston breathed his last. Mr. Richter has in disputable evidence that the great soldier died on it. McGinty & Hunnicutt, contractors, of Athens, have riyw in their employ ‘250 hands, and their pay-roll will reach $1,500 a week. These hands receive from 50c. to $3 a day for their work. This includes their brick yard, machine shop, carpenters and bricklayers. An incendiary tire at Jerome Massey's place, near Marshallville, Wednesday night between 11 and 12 o’clock, burned his g'n and engine bouses, cotton press, ten bales of cotton, 1,600 bushels cotton seed, two gins and condensers and every other attachment of his newly equipped ginhouse. At Atlanta Friday, Station House Keeper Foute went into a barber shop and was shaved. Half an hour afterward the right side of his neck commenced to swell, and in ten minutes there was a huge wen. He does not know what the swelling is or what caused it, and feels a little uneasy about it. The Legislative Finance Committee that has for several weeks been engaged in tho task of examining and overlooking the books of the Treasury Department, com pleted its labors Friday. Everything was found in a satisfactory condition in the de partment, and the officials are given their 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 people. 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. At Atlanta. Friday, in the office of the Clerk of the Superior Court, an application was filed by R. J. Jordan, attorney, for a charter for the “Notla Consolidated Mar ble, Iron and Talc Company ” tbe incorpo rators of which are Isaac ’ Kinsey, A. G. Kinsey, R. J. Tollesoii and others. The capital stock of the company is *1,000,000, with the privilege to increase it to $10,000,- UlO. The shares are worth SIOO each. The main office of the company is to be in At lanta. and its business will be to mine and quarry marble, talc aud iron ores, and to deal in mines and minerals. 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. I rage a little girl. He is a bad character, j and will lie sure to go up on two charge*— burglary in the night time and malicious | mischief 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. FLORIDA. Bronson has three churches. The academy at Jasper now numbers 54 scholars. Seville is trying to organize a volunteer fire department. The fig trees around Orlando are putting on their second crop of fruit. Lee Mulford, of Fort Ogden, has been granted an increase of pension.

Campbell, of Ocala, has harvested forty tons or very fine crab-grass hay off of a two-horse farm, which he is selling for sls a ton. A. D. Johnston, Jr., an old resident and one of the prominent stock men of South Florida, died at the residence of his brother, T. A. Johnston, two miles south of Orlando. The Prohibitionists carried Bradford county in Friday’s election. Starke pre cinct gives I*lß majority for prohibition. The vote was: against selling UOS, for sell ing 77. George W. Davidson, for several years one of Orlando's most popular young busi ness men, died of consumption, at Quitman, Ga.. on Oct. 5. His disease was consumption and his death had been expected for some time. At Ogilvie’s store at Orlando the men de cided to test some rat traps last Saturday night, just to see whether the traps were effective. Several of them were set in the evening, the result being two rats and a ’possum taken in out of the wet. The Morgan 1 .ine of steamers have com menced to stup at Cedar Key on their way to Key West and Havana They will run as usual. Going to Key West, "they leave Cedar Key on Friday: returning, they leave Cedar Key on Saturday for New Or leans. Those who are fond of hunting bear, will find a plenty of them along the north shores of Banana creek. Brevard county offers $5 p-r head. They are uow de vastating the cane fields in that vicinity, and a hunter can make it profitable in that vicinity.

This is th first mill of this kind in the State, and will add materially to our local trade. Ground bone is a v*ry fine fertili zer, and Mr. Spier will, no doubt, hnve a good demand for it J. U Martin, of DeFuuiak, who returned from Nebraska last Saturday, is enthusiastic over tho prospect of a woollen mill. A nas'i ing will be held in the near future, and all citizens are urgently invited to attend, for tho purpose of formiug a stock com pany. The probable cost ranges, according to size of the plant, from SIO,OOO to $25,000. A Keifer pear, on exhibition at tbe drug store of Mr. 11. V. R, Schrader, at Talla hassee, weighs one pound and nine ouiiees, and measures very Jiltlo loss than 15 inches around. This pear came from the grove of Col. John Bradford, of Bradford' ille. I jeon county, and is the lioss pear of Florida. There were three ot hers in the same cluster nearly as large. At St. Andrew's Bay, J. H. Smith, a 14- vear-old boy, had his hand terribly lacerated ny an edging saw at Moat's mill. The tfmmb, first and middle fingers were severed and the other fingers torn off at the first joint, The people of the place are indig nant at the refusal of Dr. Jansenius to attended the wounded boy unless he received his fee lieforehand The bov lay for four hours, suffering terribly, before Dr. Kester, who was away, arrived and dressed the hand. Last Sunday a dog belonging to O. Futch, who lives near Chuluota, spent a great por tion of the day barking up a tree near his master's house, in a way decidedly unbe coming a dog of moral tendencies, and who had been raised under religious infleunccs. Toward night Mr. Futch, becoming tired of tbe conduct of the dog, went out and made an inspection, when he was astonished to find that tho dog hail -discovered a lee tree, and was doing the best he could to make the fact known. Reinie Winkelmann, of Oaklaud, left for the Gulf last week to bring home a wagon load of mullet. The journey there and hack will cover nearly 200 miles. At tbe Gulf tbe fish will cost only a piece, and 1,000 of them can be hauled on a one-horse wagon. Around Oakland they are worth from lie. to Be. a piece, and many teams were once en gaged in this profitable business. The Orange Belt railway, having tapped the Gulf, will cause those trips to become things of the past. Cynthia Sevey, aged 12years, of Orlando, was stung on the neck last Monday morn ing by a hideous and most peculiar looking insect. The girl was dangerously affected by the sting, but Dr. Lawrence brought her out nil right. Tho strange creature is called a “saddle worm,” aud is shaped like a beech nut, about an inch long, covered with fine, downy, slate-colored feathers, spotted with yellow. Six of its legs are provided 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 quested the Department of Justice to in struct the proper District Attorney to insti tute suit against William S. Dorsey, of Bombay, and J. N. Daniels, of 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. LEMON ELIXIR. A Pleasant Lemon Drink. Fifty cents and one dollar per bottle. Sold by druggists. Prepared by H. Mozi.ey, M.
