This gentleman so well known to oar town
and county, and who not many years ago
worked up the very biggest sort of a boom in
tbe life insurance business, lias the agency
now for the beBt matrimonial insurance com
panies in existence. He has* given the sys
tem of these companies his most earnest at
tention, and is satistied that it is fair, reas
onable and just. Tlicrefore it seems that Xji
those contemplating matrimony a policy -cost
ing a trifle which pays a round suinaif $2,000
on the day of marriage ought Vo be tio bad
thing. Cap*. Peabody is «fae of our people

This society, organized for nffssonary pur-

the purpose of defraying tlie expenses of ed

Oar Turpentine Interests
Tbe turpentine business of Decatnr is
rapidly being developed, and lands are cor
respondingly advanced in price. We received
a short time since a letter from a prominent
Albany man inquiring if certain lands could
be leased for that purpose, and he expressed
readiness to begin operations at once. How
ever upon consultation with parties owning
land they decliued the proposition.
We now have in our city Mr. J. McClair, oi
Camden S, C., and Maj. B. N. Lawrance, of
Columbia, S. C., who are nere tor the purpose
of going into the turpentine busincs* on a
large scale, provided they can get the lands.
They express themselves well pleased with
our county, and are going to work to get the
lands and commence business soon as possi
ble thereafter. We welcome them.

Northern Visitors and investors
Mr. B. F. Kendrick, of Detroit, Michigan,
and Mr. A. W. Palmer, of Borneo, of same
State, have been spending several days in
and about onr little city. Tbey purenased
that place on the west side of the Flint known
as the “Steele Place,” and came down to in
spect their purchase and to make other in
vestments should they be pleased with the
country. They are both gentlemen of char
acter and capital, and made a most favorable
impression upon our people.
Tbey were taken to several points on the
west aide, wheie tbey took in MeLancbliu’s
model farm. Arnett's Corn Patch and other
remarkable poiots in that section of the
county. Also, tbey went to see the celebrat
ed Fowltowu region, and personally examin
ed the splendid plantation of Hon. Daniel
McGill, with which they were completely car
ried away. Their comment was “We expect
ed to see no such a beautiful laud in the
South." Later tbey went to Hon. John E.
Donalson's fine plantation, “Roselawn,"
which like otbe places visited was literally
groaning under the luxuriance of growing
crops.
On Monday last the party were invited to
take dinner at the hospitable mansion of
Hod. John E. Donalson, and Dr. J. A. Butts
and tbe editor of The Democbat were includ
ed. Here several pleasant hours were passed,
and tbey conld not have been otherwise where
Mr. Donalson's accomplished wife presided.
On the five o’clock train for Savannah onr
Northern friends departed, leaving us;tbe as
surance that Decatnr county was one of
earth’s garden spots, and that henceforth
they might bo considered citizens of Bain
bridge, in wuich town they, their families,
and friends, would spend next winter.

We would respectfully announce to the

Bainbridge has two or three dozen various
local societies, all with a good end in view,
but the consequence of so many is that all are
in a more or less sickly condition.
The finest Irish potatoes we have seen rais
ed in the city this year, were shown ns by
Hon. John E. Donalson. They were beau

Capt. John H. Griffin, the genial and popu

Tuesday on business. Few roads have better

Griffin is one of its best.
A correspondent from another Senatorial

Dr. T. R. Wardell is our -authyrized agent
and is hereby authorized to receipt for sub
scriptions to tbe Democbat. Everybody
should have the paper this year, as many
matters of public interest will engage the
attention of our people—political and other
wise.
J. Stcininger A Co. think that the people
want to know where to buv cheap goods. Well,
we hope none of onr readers will ever lack in

them to call on, or send their orders to these
gentlemen and tbey will be pleased with their
purchases.
Quite a party left our city Monday, bound
north. Mr. and Mrs. steininger and three
children, Mr. Tbeo. J. Wardi U, Misses Swin
dell and brothers, and Messrs. A. W. Palmer

Let every Democrat in Decatnr county at
tend the mass meeting to be held July 4th
This meeting will send delegates to the At

ticket. The county convention to nominate
Members of tbe Legislature and county offi
cers will probably be held some time in An
gust.
Hon. Z. Truluck, Mayor of Whigham, has
been in town this week attending county
court. Whigham has a bright /ntnre before
it, and we believe within a few years it will
be one of the most flourishing towns along
the line of the S. F. A W. Railway. It is one
of the finest points for a large winter hotel
that we know of.
Col. Arnett’s brag corn still interest the
natives. Some of the stalks have eight will
matured ears. The average is from 5 to 8.
He estimates that it will make 150 bushels to
the acre. By high fertilizing and proper cul
tivation every acre in Decatnr county could
be brought up to tbe same high standard.
We notice that some of onr people are tak
ing a great deal of interest in tho fine breeds
of poultry. In this respect Mrs. Brietenbach
and Mrs. L. F. Patterson take the lead. Their
birds are simply incomparable. Onr people
can raise everything they want if tbevjugt
will.
Onr correspondent “Observer” will probably
baTe soon to dance to the racket before
onr friend Morton, of Miller, though he in
forms tbe editor in a private note that he—
“Observer”—is by no means a coward and
desires us to fire out at blank range bis bap
tismal name upon a proper demand under tbe
rules.
During these warm days we are reminded
of the glorious past by tbe immortal Buuvan
in the following feeling lines:
Onr parients in tbe days of yore, *
In Samper without scoff;
Wore spurs and and hats, and nothing
more
Till dog days did go off.
Mr. Duncan McLancblin has a model farm
across the river, one mile from town. He
takes the lead in the raising of fruits. His
early peaches did not tnrn out much, bnt the
later ones are doing well, and he proposes to
make a big crop. He, also, is going in for
vegetables with a vim and energy worthy of
emulation. His farm is on poor, pine land
for which he would not begin to take $2 > per
acre. Improved lands will be the salvation
of this county.
Tharp, the recently pardoned murderer of
.Splat" Boberts has returned to bis home
greatly improved in health, so we learn. Cer
tainly a convict camp when there is much
work to do, was not conducive to restore the
health of a consumptive; and the sudden
lifting off by tbe Governor's pardon of 18
years of penal servitude was sufficient to re
store the health of almost any invalid. In
the meantime we wish Mr. Tharp a long life,
and that he may live to truly repent of the
terrible crime of his yontb.
Mr. W illie A. Terrell, has been in town with
bis relatives for the past week. He had been
for a long time assistant Purser of steamship
Gate City, plying between 8avann*h and
New Turk, bnt recently resigned that position.
He returned to SavaDnah Tuesday to accept
the place of chief telegraphic operator for the
Central Railroad. May good luck attend
him.
We bare received through a friend from But
ton A Son, manufacturers 6f lire engines,
Waterford, New York, theii illustrated list of
apparatus. Their work is first-class. Thirv
years ago we ran with engines of their make;
then they conld not be beat; to dsy they are
better. Onr city fathers will please remem
ber this next year, when Stonewall will ask
for a new engine.
We had tbe pleasure of meeting ia onr
town the other day Col. W. B. Bnrtchaell,
who haa been awarded the entire contract of
grading the Chattahoochee extenaion of the
H. F. A W. B. R. He ia one of the oldeat and
beat known civil engineera in the state, hav
ing probably located more different roads
than any other one engineer. Tlie Colonel ia
a clever gentleman, and we hope to see him
otten in Bainbridge during tbe work on the
extension.
In onr description of the hnge sun-flower
sent to onr office last week, and mentioned in
onr last issne, there occurred a mistake. We
shonld have said 35 inches in circnmference
instead of 19. It was from a volunteer plant
which bad received no attention. Mrs.
Thompson is not only ahead of any one else in
the production of Bun-flowers, but raised this 1
season, a cabbage, which measured 63 inches
in circumference; for which, and other deli
cious vegetables, our foreman bows his pret
tiest thanks.
Onr Florida exchanges are exercised over
extensive gnano deposits of g-cat value dis
covered in South Florida. We would casually
remark that we know of phosphate rock de
posits near Bainbridge, owned by an associa
tion of gentlemen in onr city, which chemical
test has proved to be equal if not richer in
phosphorescence than the Charleston rock,
tc say nothing of marl by the acre; valuable
in nitrogen and phosphate, with other neces.
essary elements ol plant food.
There seems to be a cyclone formin g in the
matrimonial atmosphere, as ail the young
men in the city are investing or abont to in
vest in matrimonial insurances. Those not
having tbe ready spondnix, are offering
their last winter wardrobes at remunerative
prices, or giving mortgages on next years’
services. This is right; it shows a healthy
estimate of the emergency, and it need no
porous plaster to brace the boys upforaetjon.
It is exceeding correct, when yon •go to house
keeping to havo evsc^thiug provided and
paid for, from * skil'et to a cradle.
A large black bear passed through the
southern turbubs of tbe city last Wednesday
evening about dusk. He stopped and took
an inventory of Mr. J. F. Ingram’s premises.
No barm was done except to scare all the folks
pretty badly; and be passed on in the direc
tion of the river with an air of sheer indiffer
ence. This is the second time he has been
seen in the vicinity. It is supposed be was
a tame bear, but bad disregarded the claims
of bis owner, and poasessed himself of tbe
just rights of free America. Perhaps he is a
communist, and believes in the civil rights
bill. Hope be will visit us again and furnish
some one an opportunity to send ns one of
bis hind-quarters.

Walter X. William* at Large-
Judge Warren Releases
Him on a $6 OOOliond-
Onr readers certainly have not yet forgot
ten the terrible tragedy which took place near
the city on the night of the 17th of July last.
It was tbe assassination of Mrs. Brocket in
which three miserable wretches, yclept men
played different parts. The three men were
Walter T. Williams, John Williams and Robt.
Durham. The murder was arranged by Wal
ter Williams, who paid his brother John and
Robt Durham, after plying them with mean
whiskey, to go to the humble log cabin of
the widow Brockett and take her life. He,
Walter, then goes to a neighbor's bonse and
spends tbe night in order to prove an alibi
before the coroner’s jury which he knew was
inevitable. Durham and John Williams went
to Mrs. Brockett’s house, saw her lying on
the floor, with her little child beside her,
when Durham fired ths contents of tbe gun,
bnck and small shot, into the victim killing
her almost instantly and wounding the child
Such in btief are the facts under the test!
mony. The men were ail arrested 2 weeks
af|0T tbe murder, and all waived a commit
ment trial and went to jail.
Learned, able and eloquent legal counsel
were employed by the Williams Brothers, and
Judge Fleming called an extra term of the
Superior Court last August to try them. Af
ter several dsys it was decided to try John
Williams alone. For over a week we may say
tbe trial raged with a fmy seldom known.
Delav seemed the policy of the deience and
immediate trial that of the prosecution.
However, Williams went to trial, and the jury
returned a verdict by a vote of 8 to 4 of im
prisonment for life. Sentence was passed
counsel appealed to tbe Supreme Court where
the case now stands nnreached, and John
Williams has been in jail here ever since
awaiting their decission. Bail had never
been asked in a crime so shocking, and the
other prisoners were glad to wait in dnrance
vile the trial of their crime.
In the meantime the lamented Judge Flem
ing died, and Jndge Warren, a confirmed in
valid was appointed in liis stead, hence tbe
other trials have never been proceeded with.
The counsel for Williams, however, were never
idle—always at work. So they asked Judge
Warren to turn Walter T. Williams ont under
bond, and to fix bis bail. This the Judge
contented to do, and did do, fixing tbe amount
oi bail at $6-000! Oar.commuuity were start
led. shocked, stnpified when this announce
ment was made. Six thousand dollars bail
for the instigator of one of the most foul,
bloody, inexcnsable and damnable assassina
tions that ever stained the records of crime!
Last Tnedsay the bond was given to the
Sheri Sand be at once set the prisoner tree.
And here are the names, of those composing
tbe bond:
Mrs. Eliza Williams, Wife of Prisonet.
Miss Teua Donalson, Sister-in-law of Pris
oner.
Mr. Bobert Donalson, Brother-in-law of
Prisoner.
Mr. 8. J. Donalson, relative of Prisoner’s
wife.
Mr. Alfred FarnelL
Mr. M. L. Jones.
We have heard it freely stated that the bond
was one of “sfaw,” besides not legal. Of
this we are not now prepared to say.
The community, however, feei that tbey
have been outraged: and we believe that
Williams’ liberation will add a great impetus
to crime in this connty. These Brockett
murderers have already cost the connty many
thousand dollars. And what the end will be,
God alone own ML
The real es’ate and building boom oon
tinues to hold its own, notwithstanding
the general complaint of hard times. The

Atlanta is gaining quite a reputation as
a fashion city No more orders are sent
to New York for wedding trosseaus, and
funeral outfits. G. K. Woodward & Co.,
formerly of New York have opened ele
gant Fashion Parlors in this city and they
are liberally patronized by the first ladies
of Atlanta, Augusta, and Macon. This
new enterprise gives the same advantages
as to style, work and prices, as can be
obtained in New York or Paris. Tbe
managei, Mr. G. K. Woodward, is a
pleasant gentleman and a reliable business
man. Atlanta is proud of her fashion
purlers—and she should be, Messrs
Wodward & Co., guaiantee satisfaction in
every particular. They a^o sell the
dress maker’s magic scale, a new and
perfect tailor system of dress cutting. It
is something that every lady in Decatur
county should have and it costs only $3.
With this scale a lady can cut anything!
in the dress’ line she has ever seen, and
to a perfect fit. If they fail to give satis
faction Mr. Woodward refunds your
money. It is taking like hot cakes in At
lanta.
Did you ever see such a mixed up state
of affairs in our political arena ? The
bosses nave enticed little “Alic” into the
tails at least, and are gently leading Irim
to the slaughter. Poor old fellow. We
might overlook such as indiscretion in
the hot headed youth, but for an old man
standing upon tlie verge of the grave, to
allow his common sense to be smothered
by a grasping ambition to elutedi at every
honor that meets his eye—what excuse
can be offered for him
One thing certain his nomination would
create more discord in the ranks of the
Georgia Democracy than was ever created
by all the independents put together.
But he will never be nominated. The
prize will be awarded either Carlton,
Crawford or Lester,
Mr. Charlie- Hill told me this morning
that his father, Senator Ben Hill, gave
evidence of considerable improvement
«ince his return home. His many friends
—and their name is legion—entertain
high hopes for his permanent recovery.
God graut that lie may, is the earnest
prayer of every true Southern heart.
Wish your readers eould have witnessed
the .reception Senator Hill met on his re
turn home. It was the grandest tribute
ever paid a Georgian. As he stepped
down from tbe car into the. midst of that
vast concourse of people, not a shout rent
the air, but five thousand uncovered heads
bowed %nd their statesman passed along.

June 15.—There is being carried on through
tbe coinms of onr local paper, The Democrat,
quite a spirited controversy between tbe
county commissioners, represented by G. P.
Wood, oDe of tbeir number, and an individual
who writes over the signature “Grand Juror.”
The latter arraigns the commissioners for ne
glect in tbe discharge of tbeir dnties, and in
bis last article hinted that impure motives
governed the commissioners’ in one or two
transactions.
Much feeling is manifested, and it is not
nnha-dy that the abolishment of the board of
county coiuuM«ioners will be a prominent
and, perbape, a <4j»rollmg issue in tbe elec
tion of legislators. (.</*.•?>y politics are not
attracting much attention’from lTuT-ncopie
They are tending one of the best crops ever
seen in Decatnr, and have no time for poli
tics. I frequently bear the name of Thomas
Hardeman mentioned with the place of Con
gressman at large. Parties from the north,
I do not know the names, have purchased a
large tract of land four mites from the city
and have taken possession with tb^intontion
ot cultivating it. Sckibo,
This is the age of improvement; and we
are determined to lead. As carpenters and
masons cannot work without plenty of room,
we must dispose of our stock, and to do ao we
will offer during the next week, all summer
goods at such prices that will induco all to
buy. J. Steininger & Co.
When you want to make yonr money go as
far as possible call at the Flint RiverStore and
ask to see tbe bargains that will be displayed
there daring tbe next week.
J. Steininger & Co.
Wbat the people want to know is, will the
new railroad be bnilt from Climax or Bain

the artesian well? Will we have a new Hotel
