6 GEORGIA WO FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATES TOED IN PARAGRAPHS. Borne Interesting Reminiscences About, Blakely A Griffin Youngster with ft Predilection for Letting Trains Run Over Him—Lynchers Longing to Get Hold of a Negro Scoundrel Near Adairsville. GEORGIA. At Baxley, Saturday, Frank Wilcox’s trial for murder, in Superior (jourt, which created great excitement and interest, resulted in his acquittal, by the jury. Hon. Jefferson Davis, who will be in Macon Oct. 'J4 and 25, unless bad health prevents, will be presented with a handsome stove by a Northern firm making an ex hibition there . ‘ the State fair. Thursday night at a church festival in tho upper portion of Monroe county, Will Jes ter shot and instantly killed Ben Lovett. Both colored. Lovett was a notoriously bad negro, and had served out at least two terms in the chain-gang. Mr. Huff, a trapper of Oconee county, has just returned from a trapping expedit ion up on the Oconee river. He nail throe fur benvara and an otter. He says there are not many on the river, and that lie canght all in the lot but one. Ho has a large number of traps. John Mimms, a burly negro, offered coma familiarity to a young lady of pure character and excellent family, near Adairs ville a few days since. When the scoundrel was located a party waited on him with a rope, but he slipped the cords with which he was tied and made his escape. Several shots were fired at him, but without any apparent effect. At Macon, Friday, Bennett Jones, of Twiggs county, lost hispoeketbook contain ing SBO or more. It developed Saturday that Dr. Mcllatton’s driver found it near Cross Keys, aud turned it over to tho doc tor. The doctor handed it to George C. Price, who advertised that a pocketbook had been found. The driver was rewarded for his honest act. At Gordon .Saturday a negro named An drew Brantley, had his arm horribly mang led by getting it caught in a gin. The flesh was torn from tho arm, leaving arteries and muscles exposed. Andrew is very much thought of in Gordon, and lie was at once placed under the care of Dr. AV'. W. Lee, who put the flesh 1 wick in shape after much careful work, and now the arm gives evidence of growing properly and becoming a good arm once more. It is considered a skillful hit of surgery. Last, Friday, B. L. Lewis, of Lumpkin, was driving along the road just beyond the Hannahatenee creek, when his buggy wheels ran over a monster rattlesnake. The dreadful rattling roar of warning was sounded as the reptile threw himself into a coil ready for an attack. Mr. I/iwis made the first attack, and gave him a salute of fixe rounds from a pistol. Failing in these to silence his battery, he attacked his snake ship with a fence rail, and belabored him until life was extinct. The deadly monster was about five feet in length, and carried thirteen rattles. When one of the incoming trains arrived at Augusta Saturday afternoon a passeu ger turned over his hand satchel to a ilarkey, who was lustily soliciting patronage for a presumably first-class hotel. After looking all over the town for the hotel represented by the darkey, the unfortunate vis,to!' was forced to a realization of the fact that he was the victim of an original scheme hit upon by a sharp thief, whose purposes were to secure the luggage entrusted to his care. The thief and baggage are still at large. The loss fails heavily on the passenger, as the valise contained a handsome now suit of clothing, besides several other articles of value. A certain section of Franklin county is in arms over a marriage which took place last Saturday. Farmer Buckalew had a daugh ter, Minnie, for whom he had picked out a husband. The young woman preferred a young man named John Adams, and wheu forbidden by her father to receive his at tentions she met her lover clandestinely. This all went very well until the early part of last week, when Buckalew, carrying his rifle, came suddenly upon the couple at their trysting place. He blazed away at once at young Adams, who escaped through the woods under fire. Adam’s friend took up his cause, alleging that he was a good enough man for Butkalew’s daughter, and before daylight on Friday morning a |>arty stormed the Buckalew mansion and cap tured the girl. She fouud at a convenient place her lover waiting for her. The whole party, armed to the teeth, made their way to Carnesville to procure a license for the marriage. As the girl was under age, only 14, the license was refused. The party then drove across to Carrollton, the bride and groom in a wagon, while the other members were on horseback with rifles ready for ac tion. In Carrollton tho necessary pa]ters were secured and the marriage took place. Since then the whole neighborhood has di vided into factions, and several bloody fights are likely to take place. Among other beauties and phenomena, Griffin possesses probably the only young child in Georgia who would deliberately lie down on the railroad track for the novel pleasure of seeing a train of cars pass over his body. Possibly there may be something in the nerve of the name given him by his parents that inspired Gill nan Drake Tut wiler, the 5-year-old urchin, who now has to be kept in the house to prevent a repeti tion of such action. Almost every body has seen this child, with a gravity above hjaf age, running around the streets, a littlff, fat bit of humanity, seeking knowledge and as sociates among men rather than among the infants, of which he is really one. One day not long ago he got on the cowcatcher of a Georgia Midland locomotive to take a ride, but fell off and upon the track, where he lay while the engine and train passed over him, rising up at the rear end of the train unin jured and chuckling at the adventure. So amusing was it, that a few days afterward be went down to the train and deliberately lay down in front of the locomotive, unseen by the engineer, for the purpose of repeat ing the episode, and again succeeded in es caping without injury. But his singular predilections were discovered, and he has since been forbidden the track by the ma ternal authority, and has had his freedom curtailed iu a manner that must prove very irksome to his adventurous disposition. Blakely correspondence of the Macon 7Wr qraph: Blakely is one of the oldest towns of South west Georgia, and was settled by the Collier family ’way back in ’22. Here lives John M. Wade, one of tho “oldest in habitants,” who never goes from home, and has not even been to Albany since Til, when Col. Nelson Tift was the polite landlord of the famous old Tift Hotel, ami John Jackson was merchandising in a log cabin store near where Meyer’s store now stands. H. H. Robinson has been here a long time and has amassed a considerable fortune. We met here, too. Judge Thomas Williams, an old Gordon soldier. “Uncle Tommie,” as the Judge is familiarly called, was the mail-carrier of Lawton’s brigade, and when Lawton was wounded and the brigade given to Gen, Gordon, he liecame his mail carrier and followed him throughout the war. all through the Shen andoah valley, at Petersburg and Gettys burg—and gloomy Appomattox. Just in front of the court house, which is ill the centre of the town square, the old secession flagpole still stands like*a lonely sentinel. reminder of the passion and excitement and heroism of the days of the ]>ast. This pole is over one hundred feet in length, and was selected by James M. Stewart, who still re sides near the town. As Jeff Davis will soon visit Georgia, somehow, we know not why, this old pole has a fascination for us, and we look upon it with a feeling akin to reverence. The pole was erected the day after the fall of Kmnter. The Whigs anil Democrats met, and in due and solemn form, in deed arid in fact, buried the hatchet at it* base. The past was forgotten to make too Confederacy a success. FLORIDA. Lakeland has begun shipping oranges. Lakrlgnd hnsjspnt quite a largo dtlega tion to the Piedmont. At Lakeland thorn are already two candi dates in the field for Mayor. Several ladies are in durance vile at the quarantine iump near Lakeland. The yellow fever scare has puralyzed the business of the hotels at St. Augustine. O. P. Havens, formerly of Savannah, has opened a photograph gallery at Jackson ville. A large number of Ponce de I.eon me chanics left St. Augustine Saturday over come by fear. The St. Augustine Philharmonic Society has about thirty members, which number will lie rapidly increased. The name of the man who fell and was killed at Cottondale Friday night was Charles W. Rivers, and he hailed from La- Grange, Ky. Meyer & Muller, of Jacksonville, have sold to Lucien T. Canova the property oc cupied by the latter on Charlotte street, at St. Augustine, for $8,500. The express agent running between Gainesville and St. Augustine was put oil’ by the quarantine officers and not allowed to enter St. Augustine Saturday. A. S. Chalkcr, of Middleburgh, has as signed in favor of W. S. Wightman, of Jacksonville. Mr. Chalker’s liabilities amount to some #I2,OfX); the assets will cover the liabilities. The Episcopalians will build anew par sonage on their lot at St. Augustine, on Mu rine street, shortly. It will have every con venience, and the money required has already been raised. Reuben Carlton, the Brevard county desperado, who has been wanted for a year past for an assault on Benjamin Hogg, at St. Lucie, gave himself up to Sheriff Covar last week, and will be tried. At Gainesville Saturday Judge Finley continued the case against the Florida Fer tilizer Manufacturing Company, and has given tho filers of the injunction six days in which to give $lO,OOO bonds. The people living on the borders of San Pedro bay are having splendid sport shoot ing deer now. Four or five have been killed recently, and this game is said to be plenti ful thereabouts and in splendid condition. A move is on foot to establish a Masonic lodge in Green Cove. There are a number of good, substantial old Masons to start with, and an abundance of young material could doubtless be worked in to advantage. E. N. Wilson, a Northern man, who con ducted the Ocklawaha House, at Eustis, last season, will be the manager of the Casa Monica, at St Augustine, which will be ready to receive guests not later than Jan. 1. Frank Miranda, who was so badly in jured in Savannah recently by a colored man, having lieon struck a terrible blow on the bead with a stone weighing ten pounds, has nearly recovered, and is visiting friends in St, Augustine. At St. Augustine, Tuesday morning, an infant child of Mr. Graham, while playing in the street with a cup in its hand felt breaking the cup, the jagged edge of which made a deep cut in the cheek and throat, and severed an artery. The buildings for the car shops at Green Cove are nearing completion. They have been roofed, anil present an imposing busi ness appearance, covering, as they do, a large area of ground at the junction of tho Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West and Western railroads. The new Baptist house of worship at Oviedo, will be dedicated Sunday, Oet. Ik). Rev. W. N. Chaudoin will preach the ded ication sermon. There will be a three days meeting on that occasion, beginning Friday morning previous, and many persons from a distance are expected to attend. D. A. Cumbie, of Narcoosee, has a cotton plant near his place which is over five feet across the branches and contains from 850 to 400 blooms, buds and bolls. He and a friend counted 817, ami then gave up the task. It contains cotton in all it* stages, from the swelling bud to the mature article itself. Pensacola Commercial: The public will sympathize with A. V. Clubbs in that gen tleman’s failure to bid successfully on the public building, and the more readily when it is learned that Mr. piubbs was so sure of success that lie had given New York parties a bonus of $7OO oil the sale of the city mort gage bonds. Machinery is being delivered for the cold storage warehouse at Waldo, and work is being rapidly pushed. The house when completed will have a storage capacity of 140 car loads and an ice capacity of twenty tons [>er day. One-half of the ice will bo used for cooling purposes and the balance will be put on the market. Orders were received at St. Augustine Friday afternoon for Batteries I and L, Second Artillery, to proceed without delay to Atlanta, leaving only a sufficient number of men to protect government property. They left Saturday afternoon. This action of the government in setting an example for a fever panic is condemned on all sides at St. Augustine. Much indignation is expressed by the traveling public for the trials and priva tions that they are obliged to undergo in consequence of the present strict quaran tine laws. It is claimed that travelers are Unnecessarily detained, are obliged to go without shelter and food, and that if they ore so held they should be furnished food and shelter during the detention. Tlio three negroes who were arrested at Gainesville a few days ago for violating the quarantine law were carried before Justice A 'AnA Saturday and his honor ordered them released on the ground that there was no quarantine against Paiatka at the time the parties came to Gainesville. Two of them left the city, but the other was ar rested upon the charge of carrying con cealed weapons. The Chipola Hotel Company, of Marianna, have-fteen somewhat delayed in their opera tions -owing to the tardiness of a contractor, ,wjiy delayed returning to them the plan of TnO building. They have, however, received it and have forwarded it to another con tractor whom the directors had propositions from, and who will, doubtless, in a few days, inform the directors of his action, and will doubtless receive the contract, and begin work at an early day. It is only a question of a short time before the building will be commenced, and the work will Ix> pushed rapidly on. At the Immigration Convention at Gaines ville on Saturday, was a meeting of vast importance and intorast to old Alachua. Tlie meeting was well attended from all parts of the county by its best citizens. Not only was the subject of the immigration matter bandied, but the Silli-Tropical Expo sition was dwelt upon by all wlio spoke, and it was the unanimous sentiment that the Board of County Commissioners should see the great g<xxi which would come to the county, ana appropriate at least $1,500 for the purposes of making a display at the Sub-Tropical, and at the same time aid the immigration movement. Tho City Commissioners of Pensacola have let a contract for a very handsome city building. It will contain the offices of the municipality, the police station, u hook and ladder truck house and an assemblage room, quarters and assemblage mom for a lioso company, a public hall with a seating capa city of 2,000, and thirty stalls for vendors in market. The building will front on Bal affix street 70 feet and run back on Main street 282 feet,. These dimensions do not in clude the police station, which is about 80 by 00 feet. The elevation is x r ery handsome, with a contra! tower, which, when com plete, will bo U 5 feet high. W. K. Hyor, President of the Pensacola Board of Health, left Saturday for Mem phis to investigate the Waring system of sewerage, as Mr. Hyer and the enterprising board over which lie presides will materially aid the city in inaugurating a system of sewerage with which very few cities in the Htata can compare. The City Commis sioners of Pensacola have forwarded a peti tion to Gov. Perry to reappoint A. V. TTTE MORNING NEWS: TEES DAY, OCTOBER IS, 1887. Clubbs a City Commissioner. Mr. Clubbs resigned to make a bid for the construction of the public building, bnt failed to secure the contract. His former associates desire his return to the board, as he is an active, efficient official. The steamer Okoeehoi.se started down the river from Kissimmee Saturday with dredge No. 2 all repaired and in good shape for an active campaign in throwing dirt. She will clean out any little liars which may have formed in the Southern canal, then pro ceed to the canal between Lakes Cypress and Hatchnoha, “scoop” out the ridge left in tlie centre of the canal when the double width was cut, and then proceed to Fort Gardner, where she will cut a canal into Lake Kissimmee. Dredge No. lis now cut ting from Lake Hiekpochee southwest to tlie Gulf. No. Bis moored in Lake Cypress, and will soon lie put in commission and set to work, while No. 4 will probably lie set to work removiip; snags from the river. There arrived at Jacksonville Saturday, via New Orleans, a car load of South American bananas for Messrs. Church. An derson & Cos. Soon after their arrival, several colored men went down to unload the car. One of the men unlocked the door and pushed it back and thrust his head in side, but just as he did so he gave a cry of pain and quickly withdrew it, when it was found that he had lieen stung about tho root of the first finger of his left hand by a scorpion, and an ugly looking thing it was. It was about two inches in length, with a long, hard sting on tlie end of its tail, and the thickest part was about an incli in circum ference. The sting was broken off in killing the scorpion, which was afterward taken to Dr. Williams’ drug store and placed in alcohol. Fortunately, it struck the man in a spot where the skin was thick and hard, and could not imlied its sting as deeply as it' it had lieen on a more tender portion of the lusty. The man was taken to Dr. Williams’ store, suffering the most intense pain,where the wound was dressed. His hand was also beginning to swell badly, and at last ac counts he had experienced but little relief. HARMLESS YELLOW JACK. A Jacksonville Physician Who Says it Cannot Spread. From the Jacksonville (Fla.) Neies-Herald. “What of danger do you apprehend from yellow fever, doctor?’’ we inquired of R. B. Burroughs, M. D., last night, as the thought occurred that no physician in the South is lietter, and few so well, posted on the sub ject now uppermost in the public mind. “You may say,” replied the doctor, “on iny responsibility, and with the utmost con fidence, that if a case of influenza, or “bad cold,” as it is commonly termed, were brought to Jacksonville from Tampa, Pa latka or elsewhere at this time, I should just as soon expect to see yellow fever spread from that case of bad cold as I should expect to see it from any case of yel low fever brought into this city.” “You take very strong and positive ground on the subject.” “And I mean it, every word,” resumed the doctor. “After thirty-five years ex perience in several cities of the South — after having gone through scores of yellow fever epidemics, and lost several members of my immediate family, I am willing to risk my professional reputation on the opinion that you may bring into Jackson ville to-night the worst case of yellow fever in all Florida, and whether the patient died or recovered, not another case would grow out of it —utterly impassible.” This makes assurance doubly sure. We were discussing the interesting diagnasis of Dr. Hcuhmidt (of New Orleans) of break bone and yellow fever. The most carefully prepared paper on this subject known to the profession is that of Dr. R. B. Burroughs, in a pamphlet on the diagnosis of yellow fever, bone lever and bilious fever. He has made the three diseases the subject of profound study and oliservation, and has plates of the livers taken from the dead by Dr. Mc- Farlane and himself in yellow and bil ious fever. From his clear delineation it seems easy to distinguish the three dis eases during life, and certainly after death. He states that death hardly ever occurs in break bone fever unless the patient has heart disease, and that yellow fever is sel dom contagious: that is to say, it is seldom contracted by one individual from another. In the pamphlet to which we refer it is easy for even a layman to compare the prominent features of the three maladies, as follows: INVASION ANII JIURATION. Yellow Fever. —lnvasion sudden; one paroxysm of fever lasts from 12 to 72 hours; has no critical discharge. Break Bone Fever. Invasion sudden; two or more paroxysms, with regular remissions: fever lasts from 3 to 8 days; has critical discharges; spreads generally more rapidly. Bilious Fever.— Invasion not so sudden; no definite number of paroxysms: fever lasts from (i to 18 hours; distinct periodicity; critical dis charges; a cold, hot and sweating stage. TONGI'K. Yellow Fever. Creamy white; sometimes red at edges; mouth not generally sore. Break Bone Fever Generally whitish anil peculiar bitter taste, like quinine or quasia, and sore mouth. Bilious Fever— -Very foul and brown, or brownish yellow; sometimes sore mouth. r.VKs. Yellow Fever —lnterjected, watery, smoky look; often reddish yellow, with drooping lids. Break Bone Fever -Red and congested: in tolerance of light; dilated pupils; very painful eyelids oedeniatous. Bilious Fever— Sometimes injected and pain ful ; not so marked. SKIN. Yellow Fever— Yellow generally in fatal cases: in second stage, hot and dry. Break Bone Fever Eruption slight and tran sient in first fever; decided in second, Jike urti- I'Hlia, herpes, or elevated and red like* measles; generally hot and dry. Bilious h>ver Sometimes bilious looking or brownish yellow; later aucune; In bad cases, hot and sweaty. pci.se. Vellore Fever - Nut increasing pari passru with heat; may fall as temperature rises; generally under 110, and goes down to 40 or 60 heats to the minute. Break Bone Fever —lncreases at first with rise of temperature; reaches 120 or 140 pier min ute. After fever, tendency to run down to IP or (50, and In faintness and weakness heart. Bilious Fever— Increases with rise of temper ature; reaches 120 to 140. I'RINK. Yellow Fever— Almost always albuminous. Ballot, found it so in 300 cases; generally scanty; tendency to suppress. Break Bone Fever— Generally abundant acid and free of sediment. Thomas examined a number of cases and found no albumen; gen erally not albuminous. Bilious Fever (~-noisily arid, scanty, high colored; lateriteous, high specific gravity and seldom contains albumen. PKCUU Aim Y Of* MATTER AND MANNER OE VOMITING. Yellow Fever -Generally, no bile in matter vomited: when seen, a favorable symptom. Its ahsenoe diagnostic, chocolate or reddish form coffee ground sediment; microscope shows hematoidiu and blood disks, expelled with force.

Yellow Fever Its state diffors in different epidemics; generally less affected than in other fevers; often apathy and indifference from want of mental power, convulsions ami coma; some times from urinlc poisoning; fright more induc tive of disease at first than in other fevers Break-Bone Fever— Dull; a sort of hebetude of the mind. Bilious Fever —Generally more affected than in yellow fever; stupor often tor days before death; have seen mind clear to the' last, gen orally the reverse. In break-bone fever the pain is decidedly more severe, and a more common symptom in the other fever. It is not yet decided whether dengue is contagious, though it is rarely ever fatal. The foregoing facts should enable any one to detect the nature of any of the three fevers, and may lie of present value to our friends In Tauipa. A BRINDLE BULL IN TOWN. How Two Heartless Citizens Betrayed the Confidence of a Visitor. From the Thomson (On ) Journal. J-ast Thursday night a small brindle bull came in to Thomson aud acted in a most un becoming and disgraceful manner. When lie crossed tlie railroad lie lifted up Ills voice and informed the town that he was from the Montgomery district, and that he was on an everlasting, pluperfect spree generally. He said he was here to horn out the stock law or anything else that came in his way, and he dared the United States to stand before him. He said many improper and unkind things about tlie people of this town, and volunteered the assertion that he could shoulder tho depot and carry it tfl Brier creek. He said that Thomson was putting on airs and ought to lie taken down, and that lie was here for tiiat purpose; and when he bellowed up toward Brier Row it looked like he was going to upset the entire block. But when he reached Scott’s corner he turned down Railroad street, still talking extravagantly about what he was able to do. At HolzendorFs store he threw his tail over his back, turned over a box and smashed a barrel, and then called for Col. (>. Washington Seay and dared him to bring out his wild mules and imper ishable wagon. Col. Seay lioiug sound asleep diil not respond, but Jack Smith and Fetor Knox did. Jack found a bundle of fodder which he held to the bull’s nose. Tho bull put dewti his irate tail and Jack pro-ceded to toil him that he was entirely m staken about Thomson. He assured him that the people of the town were very kind and hos pitable, and that Col. Seay was a gentleman who wore one gallus and chewed plug tobacco. He also stated that if lie would follow him up town he should have a barrel of fodder and two bundles of corn, and Inter promptly agreed to carry a bar rel that he might butt aud smash at his pleasure. The procession up the street was very im pressive. First, Jack, with a melancholy face and a bundle of fodder; then the bull, stating, every few yards, that he was a son of Andrew Story’s famous animal, and that he could hold the courthouse or any other man out, in the wet, and then, with an empty barrel, l’etor, solemn but deter mined to uphold the honor of the town. At the hotel corner Peter suddenly disap peared. but soon returned with a rope which looked ominous and suggestive, lie was a little late, but lie saw that the bull was following Jack, and the all-important tail was also in the procession. Mr. John F. Sutton’s back lot never wit nessed such consummate deceit and duplic ity as these two boys practiced upon that country bull. While Jack Smith held the seductive and tempting fodder to his nose, Peter attached a rope to his tail, with a running noose at one end and a barrel at the other. Then they opened the gate and told the bull that it was getting late, aud that it was time for him to get home. It is re markable how suddenly, promptly and speedily he did get up and git. When he turned Judge Thrasher’s corner, the barrel swung him out in the street, but it did not stop him from saving that Thomson is a huge humbug. At the railroad crossing the barrel, which was doing its beet to keep up, struck an iron and landed on the bull’s back. Then that entire part of the towh re sounded with his remarks. It is astonishing what florid language he used and how elo quently he emphasized it with that barrel. He talked ail the way out the street and said many unpretty tilings. He passed Judge Worrill on the sidewalk, who stood and looked at the procession while it dashed by. He says that the bellow, the bull and the barrel were so close together that, he couldn't tell how they ran, but rather thinks that tlie barrel was ahead. Wo have heard only once of this irrup tive and erratic animal. About 12 o’clock he crushed through Judge Hodo’s front yard. The Judge happened to be up when the procession passed. He says he is confi dent, that the bull was in front, and he knows the barrel was next, and be thinks the bellow followed and hung to the trees and had cuss words in it. He says that, from the nppearance of the bull, it seemed to him the animal had had a God’s lavish of Thomson and of barrel. Fast Traveling. From the A merinis (On.) RemMican. Henry Johnson came in from Webster Thursday. He says that the Amerieus, Preston and Lumpkin trains are most too fast for tlie slow people over there. An old lady got on the train last week, took a seat at the window and was talking to her daughter on the platform. The bell rang to start off. and the old lady reached out her head to kiss the girl. She smacked her lips, but was disgusted to see she had kissed a big black negro man at Plains of Dura, twelve miles on the way to Amerieus. Advice to Motnera. Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves tho little suffer at once; it produces natural, quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain and tho little cherub awakes as “bright as a button." It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, re lieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether arising from teething or other causes. 25 cents a bottle.
