sible.
The dwelling and outhouses of Mrs.
Lemuel Parker, in Scriven county, were
burned down on Monday night. The Are is
thought to have originated from a defective
flue iu the house. Nothing was saved from
the buildings and the loss is a heavy one, as
there was no insurance.
A few days ago a crowd of negroes were
in a field at"“Uncle'’ Wesley Houser’s, near
Port Valley, digging stumps. They had
built a fire and left a little girl near it to
keep it burning. When the crowd was at
some distance the girl’s clothing caught on
fire, and before any one could reach her she
was burned to death.
Mrs. Betsy Woodward, residing near Rid
dleville, in Washington county, took a
small quantity of strychnine by mistake for
a dose of calomel recently, that came well
nigh proving fatal. As soon as she was
assured of her mistake by the convulsive
movements of her limbs, she took lard and
sugar and the white of an egg, which for
tunately counteracted the [ioison and doubt
less saved her life.
James Hill, a well-to-do farmer, residing
near Thomasvillo, Fulton county, a small
country village near Clark's University,
met with a fatal accident. He was on
horseback, driving a drove of cattle, when

on Oct. 24, aud, having secured a license
through a mutual friend, they walked to the
residence of Rev. A. M. Williams, at Amer
icus, and, in the preseneo of a few friends,
were quietly married. For some reasons of
their own they determined to keep the mat
ter secret, and only made the matter public
Wednesday.
If reports lie true some sensational de
velopments are likely to proceed from the
Miss Elvira Ivey murder trial, which was
disposed of in the Siqierior Court of Jeffer
son county last week by an acquittal of Miss
Ivey. It now appears that one of the
jurors in the last trial sat upon the case in a
former trial, when the defendant was con
victed and sentenced to five years in the
jienitentiarv. It is reported that the juror
will be prosecuted, and the matter has
aroused a great deal of excitement in Jef
ferson county.
At Marietta Wednesday night the citizens
were awakened by the screams of a woman.
William Brown, a negro, had cut his wife’s

on the scene almost immediatelv. and at

fugitive in a clumn of hushes, almost dead.
In his hand he held the bloody knife with
which he had cut His own throat. He was
brought back into town, and at last accounts
was dying. The woman may recover.
Jealousy was the cause.
Griffin Sews-. Sunday night was very
cold indeed, severely cold for the ice fac
tory, which suffered a considerable loss
from the freeze, one that it will take weeks
to repair and arrange. It seems that on
Saturday night after work had ceased that
the water was not turned out of the engine
and the numerous pipes necessary to run the
machine. The consequence is that water
froze in many of them and also in two of
the engines used, causing them to burst and
rendering work impossible in any portion of
the building until new castings of the en
gines and new pi|>es can be secured. It is
even impossible to continue the work of
drilling out the well until the engine for
that purpose can be repaired. Manager
Smith estimates the damage to the machin
ery at from $4OO to $5OO.
At one time during the late civil war the
National Hotel at Dalton was used as a
temporary hospital. Recently ns some
workmen were engaged in making some in
terior repairs about the building, a letter,
faded and yellowed with age, was discov
ered behind the plastering of the wall of
one of the rooms. Upon examination the
letter was found to have been written by a
soldier of the war, probably while lying
wounded ia the buildiug. .Much of the clii
rography was illegible, though enough
could be deciphered to show that the
letter was a brief history of the war, which
the writer had doubtless intended to have
forwarded to his home folk. How it came
behind the plastering is a question to be
solved. Maybe the wounded soldier in an
attack of delirum slipped his epistle through
a crack in the wall, mistaking it for one of
Uncle Sam’s mail boxes.
Americus Recorder: Most of our busi
ness men know more about business than
hunting, but occasionally one will make
up his mind that it would do him good to go
out with the boys for a day’s sport. Such
was the case with a prominent business
man, closely identified with our banking
interests. Thanksgiving Day being a legal
holiday, and the liauks intended to close, as
usual, our friend joined a party just being
made up to go out hunting during the day.
He hied himself to a sporting field and bor
rowed a magnificent gun of the latest pat
tern of breech loaders. Going buck to the
crowd with his gun, lie looked it over care
fully, and then remarked: “Why the ram
rod has been lost. I guess I’ll go'around to
Rogers’ and have a now one made for it.”
It was with difficulty the crowd kept qui( t
until he hud started for the gunsmith’s,
and it is not known yet whether ha lias
found out how to use a ramrod on that gun.
Ijust Wednesday night a negro called nf
J. U. Middleton’s near Brentwood, and
said he wanted to buy some cane. Mr.
Middleton walked out to get the cane for
him. After handing the cane to the villain,
he gave Mr. Middleton a blow over the hea l
witn a club he had prepared, crushing in his
skull. Mrs. Middleton heard the blow aud
ran out, calling to her husband. Receiving
no reply, she went toward the cane patch
sun met the negro. Ho struck at Mrs.
Middleton, and her life was only pre
served by the faithful dog. The dog chased
him some distance. Mr. Middleton had
skillful medical attention, and all that
family and friends could do was done, but
he died on-Satimlay. The murderer’s name
* R Tom Murphy, and Simon Shinholater
and Ed Browton are accessor ie l . The three
negroes passed Mr. Middleton’s three weeks
ago and went into his cane patch. Mr.
MidMetou put Jug dog ou them aud the dog
bit Tom Murphy, and he murdered him for
protecting his property. A reward of SSO
for the arrest of any of them is offered.
Tom Parker (colored) found with a
sack of corn belonging to G. M. Davis,
which it was afterward ascertained was
stolen, was arrested at Macon Wednesday.
Mr. Davis said he would net pros cute the
case if Toni’s father would whip him. Tho
father agreed to give luma genteel thrash
ing, and at 13 o'clock Wednesday was at tiie
barracks with a long strap which had the
appearance of being a section of a buggy
trace. Tom was not aware of what was
coming, and when it was announced
that his father had come he was
about to jump with joy; but when
the door of the cell opened and
his father appeared with tho ugly strap, he
wilted. The father was not disposed to
stand upon ceremony, and at once com
manded Tom to relieve himself of his coat
and shirt, instauter. This was done, but
with grent reluctance. As soon as the tiody
was bare tho strap swung high iu the air,
quivered for a second and then came down
with a swish and a swaek that caused the
black skin on Tom’s 1 tody to turn white in
stripes. Thirty-nine times did the strap
come down with swishes and swaeks, dur
ing winch Torn danced a Pawnee war dance
ami yelled like a Kiekapoo. IVhen the last
lasii fell, Tom was made to put on liis shirt
and coat and was led home, feeling as
though he would uover take a grain of corn
again.

W. Williams, for burning his gin house. In
the criminal prosecution some time before,

Mr. J. liorillard, of Now York, lias de
cided to retain the steamer Indian River at

damage was done to vegetables. Grange
trees did not suffer at all.

At Hawthorne all the orange growers are
speaking their indorsement of P. P. Bishops
fight to get the rates reduced on oranges.
They say the idea of sls being charged per
car for hauling oranges, which are compara
tively easily handled, when lumber and
brick nro hauled the same distance for sl2,
does not look much like justice to the grow
ers and vegetable men.
At Hawkinsvillo Hickory, onoof the Dado
lioys’ North Carolina hounds, got on a trail
a tew days since, near where the boys were
at work. After trailing it around some
time he began to bay. The boys went to
him and found ho bad an immense rattle
snake and the snake had a full-grown
rabbit half swallowed. The snake was killed
anil found to be 5 feet 7 inches in length.
The boys wore uncertain whether the dog
was trailing the snake or the rabbit.
Although Ht. Augustine has increased
within a twelve-month nearly 2,000 souls,
yet the rate of mortality is HO i>er cent, less
for the past six months than for the corre
sponding six months of lost year. This
makes a very good showing for the health
of the city, and proves tlio fact that the
removal of earth and the lining up of
marshes had no injurious effect, as was
feared by many. The physicians say that
there is much less fever this year than
formerly, aud that St. Augustine, both
summer and winter, is a remurkably healthy
city.
J. IX Easter]in, Superintendent of the
