Murray County.
The mineral resomoes of Murray
have for a considerable time in the
past, attracted some attention, Ma¬
ny glowing, and in lact, quite fab¬
ulous stories have been told con¬
cerning the immense d posits of
metalic wealth that lie hidden a
rnong theCohutta mountains a
long th° eastern portion of the
county. But it is of a more recent
date that some tests have been
mads, showing that there is some¬
thing real in the long told tales of
the great worth of ‘‘North Georgia
mines.” During the present year
a number cf tests have been made
by experienced miners from vari¬
ous quarters, who say, that they
have taken some specimens of ore,
from the Murray mines, of the very
finest order. And we think all
that is needed to make this, rank
with the most popular mineral re
gions of the country, is capital and
labor to lay open the rock ribbed
bills and expose to the searching
eye of man their time secreted
contents.
Our olimate, like the .vhole of
“North Georgia,” is as. pleasant
and genial as an Italian summer,
noted for health, the first great es¬
sential to human happiness. Here
the people,are not environed by
endless fogs and mists, the greal
producers of down cast, melanchol
y souls,,hut the flsaky snows of
winter andgentle showers ot spring
arelquickly passed, and the way for
passing hours is almost,constantly
guided.ty a flood of light from a
silvery moon, or an ocean of flame
from the distant bud.
A Stranger Found Dead?
Two miles, east of Mr. Seth A.
Gregory's, near the Ellijav road,
June 28t.h, was found dead, by G.
W. Aly and others who were out

ty years of age, had been dead
some three months. They gave
the alarm at once and in a few
hours fifty men were on the spot.
It being out on the rugged moun
tain, the coroner's whereabouts
unknown, M W CloerJ. P. and C.
L. Terry Sheriff, deemed it advisa
ble to summons ; and empanel a

our best eitizens^were present, the
jury was quickly made.
l'be jury; after being properly
sworn repaired to the place where
the remains were lying, and began
the investigation. The facts de¬
veloped were as , foIloWs: “Found
ihe boues of a man, inside of two
suits of clothing and on and about
his person were discovered two
pocket knives and one razor, (all
closed) one dollar in money, a lot
of ammunition and a Colts revol

deceased.*’ Witnesses sworn Us
tified as follows-. Lee and Welborn
Williams stated thatjhe^ last of
March a man in dotage passed out
going toward Ellijav and that they
believe this to be the same person.
Lee Coirel testified ihat th ^cloth¬
ing fills the description of those
worn by a man who passed through
the last of march going either to
Dawson county Ga , or to Bunc¬
ombe county,N. C., where he has a
son living. A charitable Christian
lady gave a traveler dinner as he
was making.his way, through the
neighboheood the last of March.
Mrs. John^Gregory says she can
swear to the hat as the one worn
by the old man who called for din
nei in March last She says he
told her he had some children near
here and a son living either in
Dawson county Ga., oi Buncombe
county N' C., she does not remem
ber which. The verdict ol the jury
was: “that he had taken his own
life, by shooting himself-’ the act¬
ing coroner had bis remains all
nicely collected—placed in a box
and decently buried on the spot
where he was found. Hi* property
