know how next time*” The groom-elect

The Floyd county prohibition contest has

ture, and of course it will be, if the repre
sentatives from Floyd advocate it, hereafter

A serious cutting affray took place near
the depot in Elberton Tuesday. W. T. and
J. H. Brownlee, two brothers, attacked a
man by the name of Vaughan, and cut him
seriously, if not fatally. Great indignation
was manifested by the large crowd in town,
and if the man had died it would have been
a difficult matter to oontrol the crowd. Tne
grand jury was iu session, and immediately
returned a bill for assault with intent to
murder against the Brownlees. Judge
Lumpkin fixed their bond at $3,000 each
which has not been given.
At Lawreaceville Tuesday the most im
portant aud sensational case on docket was
disposed of on motion of Solicitor-General
Kussell, viz.: the case of the state vs. Will
iam Griffin, charged with murdering James
Pierce, upon tne ground that he did not
have sufficient proof at his control to au
thorize a conviction. Tne long-standing
case of the state vs. Bucker Bradford,
charged with bastardy, was continued by
the state, and a demand taken by
the defendant. The other party to tbe case
is Mr. Bradford’s cousin—both being mem
bers of good families—but few believe the
defendant guilty.
Senator Brown is a devoted member of
the Baptist church and has proved his zeal
by frequent large contri utions to the enter
prises of that denomination. His gift of
$50,000 to the Baptist theological seminary
at Louisville, Ky.’, is well remembered. The
congregation in Atlanta to which the sen
ator belongs want to build anew church.
Ihe senator headed the subscription list
with SIO,OOO, his son, Jo-eph M. Brown,
$2,000, Elijah A. and George, two other sons
SI,OOO each, Mrs. Brown SSOO and Miss
Brown s.>oo. The Brown family thus gives
$14,800, about one-fourth of the whole
amount needed for the new church.
Saturday afternoon the clothing of tbe
little 3-year-old son of John Brown, sawyer
at Downs’ mill, Marion county, caught fire.
' he clj ‘ lcl ws b irned to death. The
child’s mother left the little one alone in the
house for a few minutes to goto the spring
after a bucket of water. When she returned
tbe littie one was struggling in the lust
agonies of d-atb. On the same afternoon,
"l “le same locality, the 6-year-old dauglW
of TP Owens met a similar fate. Hue was
out in thu whore ho \va* <*nga;i*xl in
Clearing anew ground. The girl got too
cio*e to pile of burning brush, and her cl -th
ing ignited. Sbe was burned so terribly
before assistanoe arrived that she died the
next afternoon. TbU occurred on Dr
Mcl-aughlin’s place.
Atlanta eom*|eind*noe of the Augusta
Chronicle: Tliare is something peculiar
about tlie sons of Senator Joseph Brown. He
lias four, and every one of them is a. steady
a clock, and business ail over. This it not
the case with rich men’* sou* tut a general
lint*. Wealth generally bleed* a love tar
1 lnxurv and leisure. The sons of Senator
i Brown, ho ' ever, work as any laborer in
I the citv. To see them at their desks
; one would suppose that their living
depe dad on their montnlv salaries. Hav
ing tiie.r m >ney and family influence m st
young men would fee! that they were due
the world nothing, and proceed to monopo-
I itze iG luxuries without paying the tribute
of hard anl honest labor. Each of Senator
Brown’s sons s laboring hard and honestly
in a chosen field, and will leave the world
when dead richer and better. It is a great
calamity that men of this ca-s are so rare.
AVrightsviile Headlight: If “ignorance
is bliss.” then the happiest man in all this
wide world lives in Johnson county. At
any rate, the other day while our post
master was arranging his mail matter for
the outgo ug pouch he accidentally came
across a p -staff card. Nothing unusual in
this, but then up in the usual “right hand
corner” of that innocent little p. c. was a
2-ceht postage stamp! Jewhilikins! what |
a reckless patror.izer of Uncle Sam is
the sender of that postal card. But
we suppose the message it contained was of
vital importance, and he wanted it to “get
there.” This individual, with ni.Ta stamps
than brain, is, ]>erchanee, a dist int relative
of a certain well-known citizen of ourtowo,
who, in his courting days, wrote a few
lines on a postal card to his intended in a
neighboring town, procured an envelope,
thrust his postal card inside, and, sealing
the envelops* he forthwith attached the
then accustomed 3-cent postage stamp and
set it afloat. We have evidence tbat “the
letter she looked for” did come.
Athens Banner: A prominent citizen of
Oconee county said while speaking to a
Banner reporter about the late app int
ments of negroes to responsible offices in
that county that the good people of Oconee
were aroused to a considerable extent of in
dignation about the matter. “The respect
able white citizens of Oconee have deliber
ately determined to put up with no such
proceedings,” said the gentleman. “They
say they know the cost of mob violence,
but will pay it before they will submit to
the appointment of negroes to offices over
them. If the negro gauger is sent back
so his post in that county by Collector
Johnson they will give quick orders to
leave again, and if he doesn’t leave he will
be killed. Moreover, it is reported that
CoL Bill Posers will put several negroes in
the census offices of this county as enumer
ators. If he and es they will be driven out of
the county without "delay. The people of
my county mean wbat they say. They
don’t object to white republicans, but will
positively use force to put the negro out of
office. They will abide all oonsequences,
come what may.”
Atlanta Journal: J. H. Thibadeau, who
was recently appointed census supervisor
for the Third district, in which is Fulton
county, has already begun the work as
signed to him. He has written and is still
writing letters to the officials in each county
of bis district to obtain from them informa
tion which will be of great assistance to
him in pushing the work to a successful
termination. He is getting from these
gentlemen the number of industries in his
county, the water power and the probable
number of inhabitants. Next week Mr.
Thibodeau will leave Atlanta for a personal
inspection of his district. He will go first
through Fulton county, and then through
the other counties in the district, twenty in
all, only two of them, Douglas and Carroll,
west of the Chattahoochee river.
AVhen Mr. Thibadeau completes this
work, which will be about May 1, be wili
report to the authorities in Washington as
to the number of districts which should be
in each county, as to their population and
geographical situation, etc., together with
the number of enumerators needed and the
names of such men as he thinks are fit for
this import, ut work. Tbe department will
then decide whether or not the men are ac
ceptable, and if so, will then authorize Mr.
Tuibadeau tocommi-sion them, aud will de
cide upon tli* apiount of compensation they
shall receive! 'The active field work will
begin J une 1, aud each enumerat >r will take
the condition of each family in his district
June 1, together with the number of birtbs
and deaths since June 1, 1880, when the last
census was taken.
Athens Banner: Lincoln county, not far
away from Athens, has for many years
claimed the only hermit in Georgia in the
person of Janie* Howard. The man’s life
has been a mystery, and now that rumor is
afloat that he has -lied in some hidden habi
tation, the story of his career is on the lips
of every one for miles around. His pro
longed absence from the town of Lincolnton
has given rise to the rutuor of his death.
Howard was at one time quite comfort
ably off in this world’s goods. He
came to Lincoln county when a young
man from no one knows where,
engaged in agricultural pursuits, and
managed to make a snug little fortune.
One night while coming from a fox hunt
he was attacked by some unknown parties,
knocked in tbe head, and left for dead after
his pockets had been rifled. This was just
after the cival war, when negroes were in
some sections reckless iu their onslaughts.
Since that night Jim Howard has not been
a sane man. Then his mysterous and
wretched life begun, and for more
than twenty years he has been a soli
tary inhabitant of a dismal shanty near
Graves mountain iu Lincoln county, half
lusane, and a frightful sight to look
upon. About once or twioe ayear he would
come out to the Tittle town, Lincolnton, to
buy powder and shot and a few necessities,
usually bringing blackberries, which he ex
changed far his goods. He rarely spoke,
and was with all quite a sensation and a
mystery. The report that he has died has
caused a great deal of interest among the
people of Lincolnton, though some people
say he is still alive, and lives in the wilds of
Lincoln county’s mountain.

ago and created a very fa vorabie impression.
Apopka Advertiser: Tbe attachment
which has caused so much comment in re
f ard to the affairs of the Pierce & ’furry
nvestme it Company was put on two car
loads of lumber, worth S3OO, to satisfy the
claim uf Ge -rge Davis for SBO, for labor in
tbe company’s mill here. It is generally
known tbat the failure to realize from the
contracts on public buildings at Leesburg

from making its regular monthly payments;
but Capt. Pierce expresses his belief tbat

its debts.

The Dooly county bonds have been placed

Coffee county has thirteen st >am mills
that cut annually $600,000 worth of mer
chantable lumber, fifteen turpentine stills
the annual product of which is not less
$160,000, and within the county there are i4O
farms with an average of twenty-seven
acres each. These lands can be bought at
from $1 to $5 tier acre, and will make with
proper cultivation S6O worth of cotton, 200
bushels of sweet potatoes, worth not less
than 40 cents per bushel, and $75 worth
sugar cane per acre, and the greatest varie
ties of other crops, vegetables and fruits.
The subscription books of the stock of tbe
hotel at Amerieus have just been cl sed,
with nearly SIO,OOO subscribed. These sub
scriptions were entirely voluntary, and tbe
mere fact that tbe building of tbe hotel was
already guaranteed by parties other than
the subscribers to this amount of stock ac
counts largely for the limited number of
shares taken. A little over a month ago
ten of the substantial business men of the
town agreed to build a big hotel, to cost not
less than SIOO,OOO. They believed that such
an investment would aid more, or as much,
towards advertising the city and attracting
immigration this way as anything that could
be accomplished. S. H. Hawkins, P. C.
Clegg, M. Speer, J. AV. Sheffield, John
Windsor, Thornton AVheatley, G. AV.
Glover, C. M. AVheatley, C. C. Hawkins,
and AV. E. Hawkins were the prime movers
in the groat enterprise. These gentlemen
submitted a written proposition to the
county commissioners, in which they
pledged themselves to erect a hotel to cost
not less than SIOO,OOO, provided the com
missioners would deed to them for the nom
inal sum of $5,000 the old court house
square as a building site. This the commis
sioners did, thereby assuring the building
of the hotel beyond a doubt.

Harry H. Phinizy and George T. Murrell
are mentioned as probable successors to
Hon. H. C. Tuck from Clarke.

Leverett, published in the Macon Telegraph,
which closes with the advice by the former
to tne latter to got out of tho race for secre
tary of state, telling him he can’t beat Phil
Cock.
Cuthbert Liberal: Local laws ought all
to be published when they are passed. The
idea of people being subject to a law of
which they know nothiug is absurd. The
next legislature ought to make provisions
for the publication of these laws in such
way tbat the people can see them.
President Livingston of the alliance says
that tho farmers’ alliance will not put out
candidates for congress, or other important
offices, but will fight for their rights inside

primary elections, and not otherwise. The
legislation they propose includes flexible
currency and railroad regulation.

The death of Kemth, tbe half-mythical

of Feunella; she, to b- revenged, caused
Wiltus, tho mint ingenious artists of tbe
