Americus Bepubtican: Ear]y (Saturday
morning a sleek black buck from the coun
try. dressed out in his Hunday best., deeded
to drink out of a nozzle of a hose that was
placidly coiled in front of a store on Jack
son street. He had just wrapped his dark
features about the nozzle and closed hiseyes
in a kind of religion-ecsticy, preparatory
to taking a long, invigorating pull at the
cool, dripping fountain when a cl-rk
upon the inside, who had watched
the thing a little, turned on the
full pressure of 140 pounds to
the square inch. There was a smothered
gurgle and the sound of hissing waters for a
brief moment, then all was -till. The clerk
emerged from the store with a door mat,
and carefully wiped the water from the
calm features of young Cuff, a- be lay the e
so beautiful and tranquilly serene, fie then
turned him over, so that the water might
escape through the culvert under his nose,
to derly smote him with a barrel stave and
bade him go hence.
The lumltormen are cutting down tne
forests of Georgia with great rapidity. It
is estimated that they arc clearing 200 to
400 square miles of timber land in Georgia
every year. The Atlantu Lumber Com
pany has 40,000 acres and they estimate
that they will clear it in thirty years by
cutting 100,000 feet of lumtier a day. At
the present rate it does not seem iikeiy that
the next generation will see much of the
pine belt of Georgia. The French govern
ment has replanted forests to protect cer
tain districts from floods, as it was found
after some years of observation that the
disappearance of the forests had been fol
lowed by greater and more concentrated
rainfall, ami that it rushed down the bare
hillside-so rapidly as to cause great, dam
age. This calls to mind the fact that since
the iron furnaces have cleirod so many
thousand acres on the mountains to the
southwest of Rome, ti e st ruis coming
from the southwest have caused heavier
rainfalls than ever before, and floods have
arisen in twenty-four hours, as in 1884, a
shorter period than ever brought them
about before.

At Pensacola, a day or two ago, when
the Russian bark Altai was weighing anchor,
preparatory to going to sea, tho officers,
crew and pilot were surprised to fi id th*
ship hove short with the fifteen-fathom
shackle just out of the water. Just after
ward there was a very severe st'aiu on the
cable, and the captain, the mates and the
pilot lent the crew a hand at the wiud'ass.
The heaving was heavy, but, at length, the
cause of the difficulty was ascertained, as
one end of a piece of timber, wit a the cable
wound around it, appeared above the sur
face. In about three hours the captain had
stowed on deck a piece of oak, G 2 feet long
by 17x18 inches, and the ship went t> sea.

piece mu-t have lain on the bottom of the
bay for years, the teredo had done it but

Last Sundav night burglars effected an

and two silver watches, and a couple of re

outside “knob,” b eaking off the spindle
that connected with the tumblers. They
tbeu took a “Jimmie” and punched the
tumblers away from the end of the bolts,
when the contents of the safe were at tuoir
disposal. The money consisted of bills and
silver. The safe contained a number of
notes and other valuable papers, but these
not being negotiable and liable to tell tales,
were scattered about upon thefloor in front
of the safe. Tiiat they are experts at the
business, is evidenced by the scientific man
ner in which the work was done. A nigh
or two previously, burglars attempted to
enter the residence of Giles BUveu, and
also the residence of \V. H. Lou go. At the
latter place thev carried off an overcoat
and an umbrella.
Jasper Times: Uncle Ury Allen was told
before he siartod to B dlville, on Tuesday,
that if he crossed the Alapaha he would
have to swim bis horse before he .struck the
iron bridge, and t o wav the river was
rising, he wouldn’t get buck at all. Un
daunted he struck out and managed to gei
over, but on his return he found the l iver
terribly swollen. He was kindly put acres
the find, break in a small boat by William
Roebuck and Sidney Putual. Then
these gentlemen attempted to cross
the main stream, but as tho boat
was struck by the current it was hurled
against the bridge, quivered a moment,
turned over and shot under water. It was
•seen once after, then disappeared again.
Messrs. Roobuck and Putuai saved them
selves by clinging to the bridge and get; iug
up on the same. Both nre good swimmers,
and say they would have escaped anyway.
But they might have been knocked senseles
had they not gotten out. Uncle Ury finally
got Mr. McCall’s boat to bring him over,
and, cutting tho mail sack on his shoulder,
footed it to town.
