trate wall.

tainable it is thought that Beck was justi
able, he having been knocked down two
different times by his assailant before he
offered any resistance.
Smithville News: There ?s an old timer
in J. F. Johnson’s possession. It is the
outer leaf of an old almanac, which was
edited by Thomas P. Ashmore of Lincoln
county and published by Guieu & Thomson
of Augusta in the year 1839, just fifty years
ago. The leaf came in the possession of
Mr. Johnson not long since by a negro man,
who found it in the oid dwelling recently
vacated by James Adkins.
A Mr. Clayton recently went into tho un
dertaking business at Boswell. He sent in
his application for membership to the Fu
serai Directors’ Association and was re

well, and the place is too small to support
two. By some sort of ah agreement the
Coffin manufactories only seil to membeis
of tbe Funeral Directors’ Association, and
Mr. Clayton found that the market is closed
against him. Mr. Clayton has gone out of
the business.

A party of young men, curled and dressed
to visit *heir Sunday girls, w.-re standing
outside the Kimball house at Atlanta, when
a large roaea w riggled out of a crack and
perambulated across the sidewalk. One of
t”e young men, who is known to be far
from a total abstainer, noticed the insect
and called his Companions’attention to it.
All hxiked where he pointed and then looked
at their friend in an inquiring way, and
denied that they saw anything at ail. A
frightened look came over the youth’s face.
He looked doubtfully at the r ach for a
m note and then turned his back on it and
said: “Of course you couldn't see it; how
Could you when there was no roach there.

Strangers in the city last
Friday were surprised to see so many jugs
being hauled through the streets of the city.
They were naturally under the irnpressi u
that they were the product of one of Daw
son’s big manufacturing enterprises. While
not made here, these jugs were to be used
by one of Dawson’s enterprising citizens.
They were sent here to be filled by Frank
Bethune.but for whom’is nobody’s business.
Mr. llethune will send s use of these jugs
to Shellman, some to Cuthbert and some to
other places. He has been prevailed upon
to use a few of them here at borne, but as
the supply of “bug juice” is equal to tbe
demand Imre be will mostly use bottloi iu
this immediate vicinity. In Cuthliert and
Shellman it is different. The supply is not
equal to the demand, hence the jugs. Tbe
jugs, it is calculated, will hold 5,000 gallons
of whisky, and 50,000 drunks for an ordin
ary man. This tends to show that Daw
son’s importance as a distributing point is
recognized throughout a large section of
Georgia, especially the “dry” section.
Col. Whitlock, the veteran hotel keeper
at Marietta, tells the following story, and
there are few better s tor/-tellers iu
Georgia than Col. Whitlock: “It-was many
years ago, and one of our leading mer
chants was a Dutchman, a quarrelsome old
fellow, who loved his beer better than his
neighbors. One day a countryman brought
two wagon loads of loose shingles ;n town
and offered them for sale. A young man
named Winters, a good-hearted fellow, who
loveil his joke, bought the shingles and
ordered the countryman to throw them off
into the Dutchman’s store. ‘An old fellow
in the store will got mad and try to stop
you,’said Winters to the countryman, ‘but
don’t you mind him; he is my clerk, and
can’t understand English.’ So the countrv
mon drove around to the Dutchman’s store
and began to throw off' the loose shinglos
right into the frontdoor. The Dutchman
raved, and cursed, and swore, but the
handfuls of shingles kept falling upon the
floor until both wagons wore emptied, 'The
oid Dutchman was too stingy to hire help,
and it took him two days to got his store
cleared of the shingles.”
Sidney O iff, a negro railroad hand, was
shot aud killed Sunday night in a house on
Hazel street in Ty bee, a suburb of Macon,
opposite tlm Methodist church, below the
Georgia mills. Goff and two negroes
named Asa W iiliams and Dembo llrisbv
were gambling in a hou-e owned by a white
man named Cronin and rented to Brisby.
Williams, losing heavily, became angry
with Goff, and, jerking out a 38-caliber re
volver, threatened him, saving that he
(Goff) was playing unfair. Goff resented
the accusation, and, rising to his feet,
started toward Williams, wheu the latter
fired at him, the ball entering the left
breast, striking the collar-bone and then
deflecting toward the heart. After he had
been shot Goff rau out of the house and into
tlm street where ho fell on his back, dying
in a few moments. A largo crowd collected
and the house was quickly locked up and
Williams and Brisby took their departure,
Brisby, it seems, taking the revolver. At
midnight Williams was arrested. He had
an ugly stab iu the right side of the neck,
which he claims was done by Goff in the
early part of the night, at the Brisby house
in Tybeo. Williams will not acknowledge
the shooting, but says after the cutting he
went lo Hammond's bar on Fourth street
after police officers.
The African Methodist Episcopal church
has apparently done much good among the
colored people of the south. Its member
s ip is constantly increasing. This denomi
nation has an organ published in Philadel
phia, whence the sect first sprung. This
organ is a neat monthly magazine known
as the A. M. E. Church Review. It has
been usually well edited and a really inter
esting periodical. The April number of
t .is magazine appareutly made anew de
l>arture. Insto and of preaching a gospel of
peace and purity it is filled with low, ob
scene and inflammatory utterance, sueh as
are calculated to do untold harm in stirring
up the lowest iiasdons of the negro. This
number of the Review has done direct harm
in one instance at least. The
other day, down in the
neignborhoou of Ty-Ty, a colored preacher
took tlie magazine as his text, and instead
of delivering a sermon, read with great
auction the debasing utterances therein.
He dwolt particularly upon the first article
in the book, the contribution of William
Hannibal Thomas, a former Lake City
(Fla.) negro, m which he recommended that
the snotgun ho used against the white men
iu protecting the virtue of tho colored
women. Thom is reiterated tho statement
that “from time immemorial tho white
women of the south have been particularly
partial to their colored men servants, and
that this fondness is increasing under tho
mellowing influence of freedo n,” and his
siatemont itiat the young lady who was
raped some time since by a negro, who was
lynched for the crime, had been for years
the negro’s paramour, “as was well known
by the lynchers.” This was all most heartily
enjoyed by his sable hearers, who, coming
from the adjoining turpentine farms and
saw mills, were generally tho off-scourings
of the negro race. Shortly after tho
harangue was ended, the preacher suddenly
disappeared, and the country knows him no
more. It was as if the earth had opened
and swallowed him up. No trace of him
can be found. His unannounced departure
is enveloped in an awful tragedy, and his
people fear that some dreadful mystery has
happened. A large number of the Reviews
have been circulated among the negroes in
the pine belt.
