From Mr Louis Parker, a reliable gentleman, wno came through Trion Factory town oti Wednesday lost, we learn that a terrible crime hut been committed one mile from Trion Fac tory. From him we gather the following facts: Mr Ephraim Marsh, un old man about sixty years old (but in no wise related to the fumily ol the Marshes connected with Trion Fuctoiy), owus a large farm one mile front the factory, and on his place there is a store kept hy 11 F, Roberson, a man who bus a wfs aud two or three small children. Last week Mr. Roberson left home for u neigliboiiug town for the purpose uf buying goods, expecting to be gone several days. During It ia absence old man Mursli, by some pretext or other, prevailed on Mr. Roberson’s littb eleven-year-old girl to go down to the stable, which is a con siderable distune.* from the store. After they had both gone into the stable, he told her wliat lie intended doing, and said if she ever told any one he would kill her, aud her father aud mother. The little girl was over corns by fright, and the old inau forci bly committed a most hienous crim- upon her. While the outrage vus going on they w re discovered by a young inau liv.ng on the place, aud he informed some friends of it, bnt they would not believ. it until the little girl told her mother as soon us her lather returned. Old man Marsh remained in the neighbor hood until the day before the little fatli-r came home. lie then disappeared, and up to the present writing has not heen urrest- ed.

I have no idea that I can convince him of his er ror (as I never did convince anybody that I know ol) und if he convinces me I will not uUmit it.

The recent spell of lair and pleasant weather gave the farmers nil oppor (unity to do a good ueul of plowing, and I think the most of them ini pro v ed the time. I went to Centre, our county seat, the other day, for the first time. It is about sixteen miles lront my resi dence, which is one reason why I did not visit the place sooner. It is rath er an old looking town, but is high, dry, clean und a pleasant place to live in, I suppose. Superior court wus in session, and un important murder case being on hand, I f >und it diffi cult to get a seat in the court room, uud staved out of doors most of tho time, while in town, listening to an aciioneer, win was doing Ins best to fie witty, uud to sell his goods, which he declared had been stolen by hi3 agents iu New York and s -nt to him to be disposed of. likely he told the truth in a joke. There whs a urge crowd on the streets and in t e court house, but only occa sionally did I meet with one that I knew or that knew me. At the ho tel I formed the acquaintance of Col. Cooper, who for a long time has been one of the most prominent lawyers in North Alabama. He was origi nal ly from Pendleton, b. C., and those who lived in that village and district forty or fifty years ago, will remember him. Much of the coun try between where I live and Centre lies well and produces finely. It ia Georgians continue, from year to year, to come in ‘to possess the land,’ and there is a section of country east of Centre called "New Georgia,” be cause of it being settled principally by people from that state. My neigh* bor, Estes, said to me the other day that another crowd ol Georgians had moved into the neighborhood. ‘Well/ said I, "what is Walt Fry going to do about it?’’ "Oh,” replied he, "Walt hits done turned oner on your side.” Walt is tlie man who said that a white man would soon have no chance here if so many Georgians did not quit coining. It is natural I suppose for almost every one to have a partiality for the land of his nativity, associated as it is with his earliest and best friends, uud with what the most of persons deem their happiest days. The jioet Scott suys: "Lives there a man with soul so dead, Who to himself hath never said, •This is my own, tny native land.’ ” In common with others, I reckon I sometimes indulge patriotic feelings und feel u little proud of tho fact that I am a native Georgian, but, af ter all, it was only an accident that I wus born in that state, and I don’t know that it is anything to boast of.

Y .March 12tli 1881.— That all forms of property have felt the effects of our great | rosperity is eriden oe<l by the reports of the advance in tlie rents of leal estate the increased activity in the reni estnte market, and tho higher prices which are obtained for purcels that arc gold. It is not only in this city und vicinity that these phenomena have appeared, but the same is true in a great er or lesser degree in many part* of Ihe country. In Chicago, for instance, there is an advance tu rents from fifteen to fif ty per cent. Real estate was the last form of property to suffer from the pan ic. It Us been the lust to feel the effects of returning prosperity. W/mt is called a "boom" in real estate may not come immediately, but it is highly iinpiobabl- that the prices of all forms of comuiodi ties should increase and the price ot real ,gtata remain stationary, ami that mouey should seek Investment withuut inves tors finally turning their attention to the direction of real estate. Americans do not sufficiently realize or appreciate the freedom granted the pub lic by their betels. The American land lord throws open his ‘office’ to tne crowd. The ‘-office’’ is simply a great Iiall in which any decently dressed and decently behaved person may enter. In New York the grand centie and depot for the meeting of public men fi>r informal cau cus nnd discussion and for see'ng the travelling and local world of notoriety is the Fifth Avenuo Hotel. It is the public social centre of the city. Drop in for a few minutes and let us see whom wo may. Yonder is Congressmen Towns end, of Ohio. Near him Congressman Rice, of .Vxstftchsetts. Near by, Colo- n l 3/cComb, a railway magnate of Dele- ware, a gentleman in appearance of the modernized old school, who might pi an enormous breadth of shoulder and a flowing sandy beard, is the ex-Confederate General Sterling Price. Four men who belong in public seen in less than five minutes. On leaving the hotel I met Manager 611- lig, of tho American Exchange in Eu rope (who, by the way, was, like thereat of world, going to Washington), and asked him about the truth of a tumor that the Exchange waa to set afloat pal* ace steamers which should carry neither cattle nor emigrants. He think* there la a demand for such a line of steamers, and though tho Fxchange does not care to enter into such an enterprise, yet Mr. Oillig any a the public must have what it wants. Z.ucky public? You may expect anything in your stateroom from a silver foot-bath to a point-lace night-cap, and nnyth-ng on the hill of fare short of orto- lang eggs or a slice of cold missionary. Just now the Exchange has its hands full of circular notes, accompanied by letters of identification. The note* are backed by United Htates bonds, and the holder will find them as good os the money of the country wherever presented- It is really tho introduction of a system of in ternational currency which is bound to grow as we become more intimate with our coirtins on the other side, and espe cially as the ladies take to visiting alons. or several years the Exchange has play ed a part of social providence to babea in the woods who would get lost, and it continually ldcieasing in efficiency. General Joseph II. Hawley waa chosen its president, from among a numbir of prominent p-rsons suggested, on account of hia business nervo, as well as for Intel lectual ability and (lersonal integrity. Grant and Parson Newman havo turn ed another corner, and arc new trying again to galvanize the World's Fair scheme into life. The ungodly aay that the ex President and lilt father confessor have been promiaed a large block of stock if they will stick to the ship. Grant will do it on three conditions, especially as he now desires to float hia Mexican railway scheme successfully and get his United BUtes National bank fairly es tablished. There’s millions in the Mex ican job,and Grant lias tho right sort of men helping him in it. Some of his friends say that when he goes back to Washington as President, in 1885, he will bo tlie richest man there. A bill has passed In the Albany Leg islature this week requiring that tho uae of Arc escapes and the ert of swimming be taught to children in schools; Such legislation indicates that common sense is slowly permeating tlie minds of our law makers. The naUtoriumt or swimming eoltools which were established here du ring the last two summers did a good work, though they were crude in appoint meets. But while the art of swimming is a good thing it is to be hoped that the streets of New York will not often bo as they were a dozen times d tring the winter just past, when it was no unusu- ul thing to soo a waif standing on thu aurbatoue looking across tho waste of waters, evidently propounding a mental conundrum whether to sink or swim, and finally giving It up in favor of wading, rite law in question is an indirect recog nition ot the fact that we ora n travelling people.

This regarded as being much more fa’ma-[man, almost a giant in proportion, The Atlanta Post Appeal states thut a few nights ago Miss Hattie Smith, u young miss of thirteen or fourteen years of nge, who resides on Cooper street, in that eity, went to the well to draw a bucket of wa ter. When she got to tho well she found the well-rope bad got off the wheel some way, and she stepped up on tlie welNcurb to replace the rope. As Hue did so her foot slipped and she was precipituted into the well forty feet below. Fortunately there was a colored woman standing near by when the ncoident happened who gave the alurm, and efforts were at once made to rescue the poor girl at the bottom of the well. She main tained a noble presence of mind and clung to the well-rope uutil assist* ance came from above. Hattie de scended the well feet first aud got pretty badly shook up in the descent, having one of her ankles broken in two places. Her escape front death was something marvelous, fc/he re mained in the well nearly fifteen minutes before she waa rescued from her perilous position.
