half hoars
Acquitted.—Capt, TimonyJ late of the
United States army, who, killed Richard
•pn (*,member of the Georgia Convention,)
last fall atitbc American Hotel in Atlanta,
.has been acquited.
The Columbus Sun says the competition
between the Gulf and Central Railroad has
resulted in a saving to the citizens of that
section of $30,000 on freights of cotton
alone during the past season. It advocates
encouragement of both lines to ptevent a
monopoly.

Tht Tide of Emigration.—The New York
Herald, of Wednesday, says:“one ship that
reached here on Monday last had fourteen
hundred immigrants. All the German stea
mere to sail between this and September,
wilPhave a full complement, and the lines
from Liverpool and Queenstown have stop
ped booking for oue month. Already the
of arrivals this year is greater than
for the same period any proceeding year.
Plenty of farms for their taking ou the Pa»
itfific railroad,”
The Negro, and Carpet-bag council of
the rity of Charlstou, are having a lively
titnh of it.
At a recent meeting of that honorable
body, negroes and carpet-bagers exchang
ed the d—m lie, thief scoundrel and such
ether epithets, as, fit to emiuate from a
rowdy blackguard crew.
One of the members, finally attempted to
draw a pistol, when council adjourned
without any damage being done.
SilUKKs.—Are becoming more numerous
mi the South than heretofore. Last week
the hands employed on the Macon & Bruns
wick Rail Road struck for higher wages.
(The contractors remained firm and after a
or two nearly all the hands returned to
work. The Onthbert Appeal of the 14th
iaatant gives an account of a strick of the
‘ hands employed in the Cuthbert factory.
'■'T la tbla case, as in that of the Brunswick
load, the employees came out second best.
A noth re Murder.—We learn from the
Dawaaa Journal that Captain|R. H. Fletcher,
ti highly reap ected citizen of that county
waa murdered by one John Lee, on the 11th
iaat,
Lee had consealod himself near the road,
armed with a shot-gun, and when. Capt. Flu
tdmr made his appearance fired upon him,
hiHiag him inslantly.
Ho attempted.to escape, but was hotly
pursued, captured in Randolph County, car
ried to Dawson and lodged in jail.
We presume the American Union would
like very much to make this appear as an
other Ku-Klux outrage, but as Capt. Flether
waa never a follower of the Bullock party,
and did. not belong to the Georgia Delega
tion, we SHppose Itis death will be passed
hf on not iced by the Union.
A letter from Camilla, Mitchell county
liih inst., to the Macon Telegraph, says:
•'llitchell and Baker counties are subscrib
ing money to build a road from here to
Newton and Cuthberl, connecting the
Cnthhert Columbus and Bainbridge Rail
Road with the South Georgia and Florida
Baihroad. One hundred and twenty five
thousand dollars was subscribed in oue
day to this road.” The connection between
Thomasville and Camilla is expected to be
made by .November next,
We hope the road may be completed with
in the time specified; hut there is one thing
•ure, if it is, the contractors will have to
atrike a diffe rent lick from what they are
now doing—they have been at work on the
yodd tor seveial months, and have only
•boMt eight miles graded, anl not a bar o*
iron laid- Judging from the progress they
hare made, it would be acl >ser guess t'>
aay November 1870.
We have received from - J. J. Christie
Esq;, (but too late for this issue,) a com
munication giving an account of the Rail
road meeting held in . Uolquit, on the.‘Btli
instant. From Mr. C.’s communication'we
learn that about SIO,OOO was subscribed to
the Bainbridge, Cuthbert and Columbus
Rail Road on that day,and that the people,
of the county are alive to the importance of
having the road built. We
the people were assured by ihe officers that
the road should be located by the way of
C quit?. After this assurance, we expect
to see Miller county doing something hand
some in the way of subscriptiohs. MrC.’s
communication shall appear in our next
issue. —Early County News.
The Virginia Election — President Grant
on the 15th instant, issued.a proclamation
ordering au election for ratification or re
jection of the Constitution passed by the
convention on the 3d day of December 1867
to take place on the 6th of July next. The
vote on the 4th clause of section one, which
disqualifies certain parties from holding
office, and seventh section of article third
which is the test oath clause, are to be
taken seperately.
There Is two candidates in the field for
Governor, both Republicans, Walker and
Wells. Walker represents the conservative
Republicans, and Wells the carpet-bag par
ty-
The Democrats it seems do not intend tp
pntout a ctti.didafe, bnt a e Jgoing in for
Walker and the expurgated Constitution.
The Pacific Roilroad Completed. —The
last rail of this enterprise, was laid at Pro,
montory Point at 2. 45 P. M. on the 10th
instant. The event was celebarted in New
York and several of the Western cities by
the"firing of guns, ringing of bells &c.
We expect to hoar of Beast Butller’s
traveling in that direction soon, as the last
two spikes driven into the great iron link
of the Atlantic and Pacific were made of
gold.
He lias a fellow feeling for such things,
and likes to take them out of the cold.
The Atheiit. (Tenn.) Post 6ays: Doctor
A.C. White, of Maury county, Tennessee,
communicates to the Medical Journal, at
Louisville, the case.of a woman who is now
thirty#»four years of age and the mother of
twenty-three children. She commenced at
fifteen. She has had six single children*
has had twins seven times; and last month
had triplets.
If we had such a wife, we would sue her
for damages. The idea ot having twins
seven times and wind up with triplets.
Wonder what she’ll have the next? If we
could see her husband, “poor man,” we
would advise him to insure that womans
life, then dispose of her as soon as possible,
move to Georgia, buy a good place and
take the homestead on it, and be very par
ticular who he married the next time.
Mark Twain. —We copy from Packard’s
excellent Monthly, the following specimen
of genuine wit under the head of “Answers
to Correspondents
St. Clair Higgins, Los Angelos. —My life
is a failure, I have adored, wildly, madly,
and she whom I love has turned coldly from
me and shed her affection upon another.
What would you advise me to do.
You should 6hed your affections on
anotlier also—or on several if there are
enough to go round. Also, do everything
you can to make your former flame unhap
py. There is an absurd idea disseminated
in novels, that the happier a girl is with
another man, the happier it makes the old
lover she has slighted. Don’t allow your
self to believe any snch nonsense as that.
The more cause that girl finds to refgrtet that
she till did not mary you, the more com
fortable you will feel over it. It isn’t poet
ical. hut it is mighty sound doctrine.
We endorse that doctrine Mark. We
have often tried it, found it consoling, and
warmly recommending it to all suffer
ing from the pangs of unrequited love.
Mitchell County. —We attended the Su
perior Court of this county last week. Had
the pleasure of meeting there, ihe aide ed
itor, Col. Styles of the Albany News; Mr.
Smith the efficient agent of the Daily Tele
graph, and our genial friend Dr. Taber, the
popular and vigilant agent of the Journal
& Messenger. Col. Hardwick, the able
President of the Florida and Gulf Railroad,
was piesent looking after the interests of
his road, He expects to have it completed to
Camilla by October,
A large number of our legal brethren
were present, Messrs. Vason, Strnzier,
Hobbs and Gen. Wright from Albany.
Judge Lyon, D. W. Hammond, Jotm C.
Rutherford and Col Samuel D. Irwin from
Macon, Arthur Wright and Major Spencer
of Thomasville, I. E. Bower, Sims, McGill,
Fleming, Rutherford aud Solicitor General
Whiteley, of Bainbridge > uud A. flaw’s, of
Newton.
A large amount of civil business wap
disposed of. A young man named Williams
plead guiliy, to the charge of horse-steal
ing. and was sentenced to ten years bard
labor in the Penitentiary. “A culled pusson*’
of the female persuasion, plead guilty to
the charge of burglary aud received a gift of
three years in the aforesaid institution.
Crops we fouud in excellent condition.
We saw corn from fifteen inches to two feet
in height aud a heap of it at that. People
there are determined to have bread. The
cold weather has seriously injured the cote
ton upon a large number of plantations.
Others almost entirely escaped. Upon the
plantations of Messrs.-D. I. Owen, T. BeD
nett and F. M. Collins, we were told, could
be found 4h* r g® number of squares. Mr.
Owens shewed us a stalk 12 inches high,
full of squares, and told us he had teu
acres just like it

‘•Disreputable.”
Messrs. Editors. —Under the above cap
tion we noticed with regret a very incor-
Vect, tmjnst, and insulting article which
Appeared in the Editorial columns of the
Bainbridge Argus.
THe “men, women, wicked persons” atid
resellers spoken of, embraces the motet
refined, respectable and moral class in this*
comm unify. I
The dance was given by requester some"
of the most respectable visitors, if peremftea
they were not church members.
Knowing the parties personally who
were present we can truthfnlly state th|£
the “women” are known and recognized as
among the most intelligent, modest, and
respectable in the city.
And the “men” are classed with the most
sober, moral and respected citizens in this
community.
In our opinion it would have been more
becoming and in better taste—if from con
scientious motives it was necessary to give
a published disapproval of the affair, to
have beaded <he article “Inappropriate,”
(on account of the occasion.) And then to
have shown disapprobation in language less
harsh and offensive.
JUSTITIA.
Morgan, Calhoun County, Georgia, )
May Bth, 1869. )
Editors Sun :
I notice in the Early County News.of
recent date, Ihe proceedings of a Railroad
meeting held by the citizens.of Early coun
ty to Blakely, in which, they propose to
use every possible means to get the con
templated Bainbridge, Cuthbert.and Colum
bus railroad, or any other road that will
run via. Blakely, claiming for that route
superior advantages over any other in con
templation; and to the fact “challenge in
vestigation by the proper authorities.”
Now we do not claim any authority, nor
wish to enter into an.v lengthy argument to
Sh~ow~the infallibility of the assertion made
by our Blakely friends, (so far as the Bain
bridge, Cuthbert and Columbus road is con
cerned) neither do we blame them for want
ing a railroad, but we do think some hal
lucination must have possessed their minds,
or they would not have made such discre
pancies in urging their claims for the
present contemplated railroad. The mere
idea of the Blakely route “costingless” and
furnishing morejransportation, and a great,
er amount of business than any other is
absurd, and only verifies the old aphorism,
.“A drowning man will cateh at a straw.”
The announcement of these assertions in
public print by the citizens of our old,
mother county, (Early) meets the gaze of
astonishment on every hand, and certainly
evinces a considerable amount of egotism
a nd sectional feeling. “Tote fair” is the
motto let the consequence be as it may... It
is with all due defferenoe to noble old Early
that these allusions are made, and I am glad
to state that the ‘iitire eastern portion of
the epunty is in favor of the cheapest and
host route—now leaving all individual
interest and sectional feeling aside, we
wonldj uige the building of the road at
once. . And happily, for the best interest
of the enterprise, and as though nature her
self had the project in view,, when from
chaotic ruin, system and order sprang info
existence, lai<j a most beautiful way run
ning pearly parallel with the old Baiin
bridgtffhd Cuthbert road, which road cros
ses but one. creek of any importance rune
ning directly from Bainbridge to Cuthbert.
When nature has done the principal work
and thQ greatest miin ber will receive the
most fcood, thereby gently diffusing its
benefits through the entire whole* why not
all with (>ne accord unite in the determina
tion td build the road, and to use the route
that is cheapest, aud that will for all future
time be a source ot liberal remuneration.
This article is written by one who does not
live in’an air .dine Between Cuthbert and
Bainbridge but one thal is decidedly in fa
vor ol that route from the fact that it offers
mo«e natural and artificial inducements
than Cyrii'be afforded elsewhere.

Murderers. Two notorious char
acters ”t»y the name, of Turner Wood and
Abraham King, colored, were convicted of
murder at the last term of the court in Ma
dison. • His Hon. Judge Long sentenced
them to be hanged ou Friday the Ilth of
Juno. At the previous term, of this court,"
Turner Wood, was put upon his trial and
convicted, but was granted anew hearing,
which -vase had this court and resulted as
above...- While the jury was out mi itis first
trial, ligand several other erimmala were
kept iii o, room fn the Court House and
whiledirway their time ?.t a “social game

verdict guilty; Wood laid down his band,
