Lexington Echo: Saturday evening last
1 Prof. Weaver received an official offer of
: the professorship of either languages or
| mathematics in the Baptist Female Semi
nar v in Gainesville, leaving it optional with
him as to which professorship he would ac
cent. Also that his daughter. Miss Marion,

as a matron. These were indeed tempting
offers, and the professor would have ac
cepted them but from the fact that tbev
would require him tc resign the principal

six mouths' notice to the trustees and to

Telegraphic advices to the Americus
Times-Recorder from Omaha, on the Sa
vannah. Americus and Montgomery rail
road, give information of a murderous
assault made upon Mr. Watson by a crowd
of negroes Mr. Watson is foreman of the
material work on the road at that point,
and a few days ago discharged a number of
the negroes who were working for him.
jASt night while on hi way home be was
attacked by a large orowd and badly used
up, tui clothing being cut to pieces and he
being terribly beaten and bruised. His in
juries are not serious. Mr. Watson de
fended bun-elf manfully and succeeded in
disabling several of his assailants, but was
finally overpowered by force of numbers.
Ho was able to identify most of the party,
and as a consequence fourteen negroes have
beeu arrested and confined in the Stewart
county jail at Lumpkin. The motive for
the assault is supposed to have been revenge
for the discharge from work.
A special from Lumpkin to the Macon
Telegraph says: “Perhaps no case wili be
tried this week of more interest than that
of Samuel P. Owens, charged with bigamy.
Owens is a Putnam county man. born and
reared there. Years ago he married Miss
Anna Ward, also of Putnam, in 18’JO,
without any apparent cauaa, Owens left
Putnam oounty, abandoned his wife and
six children, and went to Miliedgeville.
Remaining there a short while, be wandered
to the growing town of Cordele, where he
established a thriving busiuesi as a ma
chinist. Owens is a man of pleasing ad
dress, talks well, aud while iu Putnam led
a religious life, and was regarded
by his Methodist brethren as a
first-rate 'exporter' ia times of big
meeting*. Miss Morton of this oounty, a
very pretty young lady of exoellent family,
visited her brother at Cordele while Owens
was there. He met her and became enam
ored of her attractive face acd charm.ng
manners. Owens played the role of a single
man, and this lnnooent young woman gave
ear to his story of love. He visited her at
her home in Stewart, made a good impres
sion upon the Morton family, and the re
sult was a marriage. It was published in
the papers. The publication was read with
astonishment in Putnam county, for prior
to the iuarriage Owens had hi* nephew to
write home to his wife that he had died of
the g*Jr, The nephew also sent to
Mrs. Owens her husband’s trunk of
clothes. The story of his death wr.i dis
credited, however, as the trunk coutaiued
such few artioles of clothing. After hit
marriage to Miss Morton the two went to
Anniston. Ala, where Owens was arrested
and brought bach here for trial.
W. T. W ard acd others from , Putnam
ware hare at the perlunlnery trial to iden
tify Owens, but ha pretended not to know
them. At the trial ho waived examination
and demanded indictment by the grand
jury. The grand jury this week found a
true biil. (.'apt. a. K. Lawrance, W. T.
Ward, brother of the Putnam county wife,
and Dr. & H. Adams of Putnam county
are here as witnesses for the state to iden
tify Owens."

i no blocs market to day displayed no cliauge
ia the temper whic.i hat marked it during the
whole week, but with a very moderate volume
of business and almost strictly professional
trade, a firm tone was presented, with slig.it
fluctuations and only small changes in every
thing traded in. The widest movement wai in
Sugar, which had a range of l per cent. But
the features of the market were Richmond and
West Point, which were the only stocks scoring
transactions at over 10,000 shares. Iu their
movements they fairly represent the temper of
the whole market. Foreign houses were mode
rate buyeraof their specialties, and other large
interests were doing little in the market, either
for support or accumulation of stocks. There
were the usual realizations by the smaller class
of bula on the rise of the last few days, but the
improvement in prices has not been such as to
bring any amount of stock upon the market.
Trading, therefore, was very light, and fluctua
tions were strictly upon a par with the business
done. Market closed dull but firm. The sales
of listed Mocks were 94.000 shares.

New York, Oct. 24 —The cotton review
say,: 'Futures were variable, opened lower,
further declined, quickly rallied, further im
proved, closing quiet but firm at points
advance over yesterday’s closing prices. Liver
pool disappointed our bulls, and scared some of
the outsiders who have been buyers recently.
Besides, the visible supply begins to loom up
uncomfortably large, being more than 6tt),Uofl
bales in excess of last year. Again, some
would bs experts in such matters began to pul
out increased estimates of the current crop.
But at 89c for January the decline was
checked. Operators began to exchange views
rsgardiug the effect of the smaller movement
of the crop. Bears began o buy to cover con
tracts, and value* ma lea recovery of about 8
poiuts from the lowest figures of the morning,
with an inclination among the bulls to look for
something of a bulge on Monday morning un
less Liverpool shall again disappoint them.
There wer* abundant frost accounts, but the
raovemaut of the crop no* adsorbs all other
quertions Betters from interior towns indi
cate smaller figures at once, bpot cotton was

Obica'io, Oct. 24.—Wheat wa* fluctuating and
somewhat weaker at times to-day. as the trade
was most local. It presented a rather firm
front most of the day, but held verybteady, gen
eral fluot nations covering a range of only about
He. with the great bulk of the trading in De
cember at 936®.9596c. Business was very slack
ns a rule, but despite this a steady, strong
feeling was maintained most of the
day. (lorn showed a little more
strength early in the session aud made some
advance, May getting the most benefit with
year rext iu line, but offerings ware liberal aud
there was some decline. A steady, quiet feel
ing ruled during the last hour, with
November around 604®.MJ)4e and May
42>6c. Oat* started rather firm, November
selling from 30c to 80)4cand May 8114 cup to 820,
but th* demand was sluggish, export business
light and the feeling weakened some during the
last hour. November was off to 2996 c and Mav
to 31)6c. Hog products were easy early in the
session, but finally turned strong, but tue
strength was not all held.
