Wynn and Thompson Colbert, will move to the country to reside next year, we learn. Rev. S. S. Landrum, of the Chris tian eiiurch, has preached several in teresting sermons at the Baptist church this week. We learn that Rev. J. W. Bishop, of this place, will accept the call of the Baptists of West Point recently made to him for the coming year. In consequence of the price of cot ton remaining low, there has been yet no great rush of the staple to market. A good proportion of the crop remains yet unsold. Mr. Joel M.

On next Saturday week, the 8tli proximo, another meeting will be held at the Presbyterian church looking to the permanent organiza tion of a county Sunday School Asso ciation. It is desired that every Sunday school in the county shall be represented. The move is an im portant one, and should not be al lowed to fail of success. The Rt. Rev. John W. Beckwith, D. D., Bishop of Georgia, officiated at Episcopal services held at Knights of Honor Hall on Sunday last, morn ing and evening. In the evening regularly confirmed the following persons: Mrs. S. E.

W, Roberts, pastor of the M. E. Church, left- on Monday for Dalton to attend the meeting of the North Georgia Conference. Mr Roberts has labored zealously for the cause of Christianity and has accom plished much good in our midst, and by his upright demeanor has greatly endeared himself to our people. If, in tlje wisdom of the Conference, he should be returned tiie coming yea; the act will be warmly approved. • One of our most worthy and popu lar young men, Mr. Charles F.

Tria- and Conviction of George Kirk. { the N(> \ ember number of The La- j In the Superior Court last week the j , ora * T of unusual case of the State against George' ^n Thonie contributes Kirk, for murder, was tried. The an article upon “Art Applied to Bed- Killing Near Taylorsville. A dispatch from Cartersville to the Atlanta Constitution, dated 19th, gives the following account of a diffi culty, and its fatal result, which oc curred near Taylorsville: Thursday night of last week a difficulty occurred about five miles from Taylorsville, and near the county line, between 3Ir. John A. Owen and 3fr. Win. L. Simpson. During the-difficulty Simpson struck Owen with a billet of wood about three feet long, inflicting a fatal wound, from the'effects of which 3Ir. Owen died Saturday night. Coroner Willingham held an inquest yester day over the body. The jury, after hearing the testimony submitted, rendered a verdict as follows : We, the jury find the deceased, John A. Owen, came to his death by being stricken over the head with a large stick by William L. Simpson, and tiiat it was willful murder. Coroner Willingham issued a warrant for the arrest of Simpson, who has so far managed to keep out of the way of the officers. The cause or the diffi culty was an old grudge aided by whisky.” Board of Education.

John B. Alden, Publisher, 18 Vesey St., New York. Gold, Silver Watches, Cheap, at Turner’s. We don’t think Turner stole those Watches, but the naan he got them from may have done it, judging from the prices asked for them. case was,the first called, after the as sembling of the court on 3Ionday, and the trial occupied tlirqe days, during which there was a lively in terest at all times manifest, the court room being continually well crowded with spectators, among Which was noticeable a goodly proportion of col ored people. The trial being the first murder trial in our court for some time, about which there was much interest, gave our local attor neys in the ease an opportunity for research and a display of legal wis dom such as is only now and then •met with. The State was represent ed by Col. J. I. Wright, the Solicitor Genera], assisted by 3Iessrs. Janes & Richardson and King & Bunn, of the local bar, and Judge J. \V. H. Un derwood, of Rome, while the defense was represented by 3Iessrs. Blance & Noyes, Thompson and Glenn. There were about fifty-six wit nesses in the case, the examination of which occupied about one-hsif of the time of the trial. The examina tion was rigid, thorough, and rather spirited at times, the prosecution and defense each having evidently re solved tiiat no stone should be left unturned to develop all the fa- likely to have bearings favorably on their own side of the case. The ar guments in the ease were made by Messrs. Bunn, Richardson and Un derwood, in behalf of the State, and Blance, Glenn and Thompson for the defense, 3Ir. Bunn making the open ing speech: The prisoner’s counsel made a stirring effort. The speech of Col. Thompson was a particularly well prepared and earnest appeal for his acqu.t al. The speech of 31 Richardson, of the State’s counsel, who is yet young at the bar, was full of practical points. The manner in which lie handled the evidence evinced a peculiar tact that is suscep tible of being turned to a useful ac count and proving an auxiliary to his lasting success as a lawyer. Hon. J. W. II. Underwood, for the State, who closed tiie arguments in the ease, went to his subject with a free dom of manner and appropriateness of expression at once impressing and winning tiie close ear of jury and spectators,and betraying notably tiiat gift of knowledge and the abili ty to impart it, which ail who know his career, are ready at ail times to accord as his possession. His speccii was an able demand for the law’s vindication. The jury was an un usually bright body of men, made up from a fair-minded, intelligent class of citizens, and seemed to weigh properly the gravity of their task. Judge Branham’s charge to them was a lucid exposition of the law in the case, and a silence reigned du ring its delivery which showed a deep felt interest. The jury, after re tiring from tiie court room made their verdict in about two hours, which was one affirming tiie priso ner’s guiit, with the recommendation to the court’s mercy. Kirk was ac cordingly sentenced by Judge Bran ham to the penitentiary for life. The prisoner sat, daring the progress of his trial with his back well to the specta tors, in a half bent attitude, close by his attorneys, watching intently the course of matters within the bar, but evincing no audible signs of excite ment. His statement was a rather automatic, unemotional denial of guilt, expressed in a few shambled words. Kirk Is a man about thirty- five years of age, below the medium size, lias high cheek bones and a rather restless eye. He bears Ills sentence, it is said, resignedly. He was carried to Dade coal mines on Friday. The crime for which Kirk was con victed was committed on the even ing of tiie 21st of July last. Dick Ratehford, a colored man, who was a near neighbor of Kirk,, and with whom Kirk was known to be on un friendly terms because of Dick hav ing reported him for illicit selling of whisky and for an abduction in which Dick’s daughter was the vic tim, was shot ia the road near his home, while on his . way from this place, his assassin having stood in wait beiiind a clump of bushes by the roadside, and fired the charges from both barrels of a double-buarreled shot gun into the victim’s body. Dick’s cries were heard by his peo ple and he was found and carried to his house and Dr. Richardson sent for. The doctor upon arrival, recog nized the dangerous character of Dick’s wounds and informing him he must die, at once requested and took his dying statement as to who killed him. Dick stated that Kirk was his slayer, having seen him plainly as he fired both the shots. His statements were in a measure eorroberated by those of his wife and one Alf Prior, who ran to him and saw a man running through the woods in the direction of Kirk’s house. Kirk was immediately ar rested,being found in the night at his house, and submitted peaceably. The murdered man’s dying state ment, with Alf Prior’s story, his wife not being allowed to testify, togeth er with statements as to threats,made up the evidence for the State. The defense was an alibi, which Kirk proved by five witnesses, all of whom were impeached. Ratchford’s testimony was also impeached. The verdict, under the circumstances has met with much approval by the pub lic. ding,” ih which he describes the process of making, entirely of plants, the medallion portraits of Washing ton and Lincoln, shown the past sea son at the Alleghany City Park. Peter Henderson’s suggestions upon “Window Gardening and tiie Care of Plants in Rooms” will also be read with -interest. C. E.
