On Tuesday last .fust when all
the merchants were closing their
doors to go to dinner, the alarm of
fire was given on the south side of
town. In a few minutes we learn¬
ed that the cause of the alarm was
the discovery of fire in the building
ofVornoerg& Henry’s grist mill
and cotton gin. Fire was first dis
covered in the top of the building,
wbioh must have blown hom the
smokestack and caught. When
discovered it was too far gone to
do anything but prolect the build
mgs near by. The residence of L
F Henry, ti e Metho list church and
Mr. Kelly’s barn caught several
times in the i oof but closely watch¬
ed until out of danger. The loss
is estimated to be about $1,500.
Murray Gounty Vindicated.
Much has been said in the news¬
papers during the pa t week, about
a band of masked men who visited
Dalton a few nights ago and se¬
verely threshed a goodly number
of her most disreputable, dissolute
characters. The special correspon¬
dent from Dalton to the Atlanta
Constitution, on last Friday, in a
short article upon the subject sta¬
ted that this was a masked mob
from Muirray county. While Mur
ray, it is true, has always been
kind and charitable to her neigh
bors, ever ready to lend to them a
helping hand in tli9 time of need,
yet, we must say tnat we feel very
confident that Murray had nothing
to do with this affair, and the
charge upon her, alluded to above,
must have had its origin either in
the imagination of the Dalton cor
respondent cr from some misinfor¬
mation on his part. Dalton seems
to he proud that such a thing has
occurred, because it has quieted,
at least f ir a time, an element of
crime which has been going on for
a season in that place to an unlim¬
ited degree The same kind of
correction has occuired in Murray,
though not on such a large scale,
at times when our society was af¬
flicted with such ulcerous charac
ters, whose cases it seemed the law
would not reach. So this, we sup¬
pose is the prime reason why our
county is charged with having par
ticipaledin the Dalton flogging.
vVe do not mean by this to impute
falsity to any one, but think more
consideration should be used before
attacking the reputation of a sister
county.
A Thief Sh ot in the Back.
Marion Moreland, of this place,
hap been missing corn from his
field in the edge of town for sever¬
al days past. So on Monday night
last lie borrowed T J Ovbey's
breech loading double barrelled
shot gun and placed himself in a
wash which passes through the
corn, and thought he would see if
the nefarious rascal could be over¬
taken. About 12 o'clock he heard
a rustling noise in the corn which
he soon decided was the object of
his watching. In a short time a
man with a handeichiel tied round
his head, socks pulled on over his
shoes and tied over the foot of his
pants, bearing a large sack of corn
upon his back, made his appear¬
ance in the wash a short distance
from him. Moreland leveled his
gun and snapped twice, but the
third time her report roareci out od
the midnight air. like a signal gun
from some lonely post. At the
report ot the gun the corn-field
robber fell, but after scrambling
around on the ground for a moment
or two he succeeded m getting up
and moving off in a lively canter.
Moreland fired at him as he ran off,
t?ut don’t know whether he hit him
or not. The sack wps dropped at
the first shot, ^ith shot a hole two in
ehes in diametr through it.
Whoever he is must uddoubtediy
be traveling around with some lead
in bis back. Hope he will be
caught and punished to the ut
most extent, for prowling around
at night is fast becoming* one ot
the .i»ost harrassing evils of this
country,
“A Thing of Beauty is a Joy For
ever”
Any one who does not possess
a love for the beautiful both in na¬
ture and in art should lose no time
in cultivating this; inspiring senti¬
ment. Love fof the beautiful
bl oms in flower yards, dances in
delight on the centre table quietly
rest upon parlor ^ceiling. Your
hooks, engravings and home ot na
mentations give excelhnt insight
to your taste. Yesterday morning
we were shown a brilliant picture
of industry,‘patience, perseverance
refinement, love for home and ad¬
miration for the exquisitely beauti
ful. We must acknowledge our¬
selves captured. We write of a
crazy quilt just finished by Mis.
M B Stuart, ot our town. In the
outset of a very meagre description
we must say that we saw nothing
on this line at the New Orleans
exposition that equals the one be¬
fore us. There are , in the quilt
293 stiches all of which are entire¬
ly different. There are 205 most
elegant designs. Among the de¬
signs we notice birds ten varieties,
tish true to nature, crosses, an¬
chors with hope writtenJnsilvery
letters just underneath, fruits of
many sorts, berries, spider in its
web, a glove that.you think of try¬
ing on, Santa Claus with his bun
die of gifts, square and compass,
fans, spear .with wreath around it.
Mauy other. beauties we might
point out but want of space foibids.
Allow ns one other^mentiori: That
of a little boy and girl with satch¬
el and books^going to school in
the happy spring lime. The exe¬
cution throughout deserves toe
highest compliment.
