It looks as if Reed would get the

Mr. AVill Swindle, son of Sheriff
Swindle, was tried at Camilla last
week, for murder. The jury brought
in a verdict of acquittal, after being
out 24 hours. Andrew Johnson,
charged with the murder of Mr. Cas
tleberry, marshal of Pelham, was found
guilty. He was sentenced yesterday.
Judge Bower wound up the business
of the term last evening.
New England Taking Back Her
Goods.
Boston is heading a New England
movement, to import large blocks of
southern negroes.
A transportation fund has been
raised, and already.some 700 negroes
have been induced to leave the south
and settle in Boston.
The New Orleans Times Democrat
views the scheme with delight, and
suggests that it would he a good thing
for all tho northern and western states
to go into it and secure about 9,000,-
000 of our black laborers. Such a
distribution of the negroes would
wipe out or settle our race problem.
There is another and n fanciful
view of it. New England unloaded
her negroes upon us—sold them to us
—and over-stocked our market.
Under such circumstances it would he
the neighborly thing for her to take
back her goods, and hear the expense
of transportation.
But it is not likely that many ne
groes will drift northward. They
are going to the far west, and under
favorable conditions millions of them
will finally make their way to Mexico.
The southern colony of blacks in New
England will he a very small element
in the population of that region.
Constitution.
A Didn’t-Know-lt-Was-Loaded Law
A Westchester man, who accident
ally killed a young woman by point
ing a gun at her, which was discharg
ed, though he “didn’t know it was
loaded,” lias been arrested and is to he
tried under the act of assembly which
makes it a misdemeanor to “playfully
or wantonly point or discharge a gun,
pistol or other fire-arm at any other
person.” The penalty may he a fine
not exceeding 61,000, and an impris
onment not, exceeding one year, or
either or both, at the discretion of the
court. This law was passed in 1876,
and abundant warning has been given
by accidents with guns not supposed
to be loaded to justify the punishment
of any one who violates it.—Philadel
phia Ledger.
Georgia lias a similar law, and it
ought to be rigidly enforced. The
practice, the foolish practice, of point
ing an empty gun or pistol at any one
b a most reprehensible one.
(Martin Farquhar Tupper Dead.
London', Nov. 29.—Martin Far
quhar Tupper, the author, is dead,
aged 79.
Cool at Staunton.
Staunton, Va., Nov. 29.—The

freezing point.
Brazil Under the old Flag.
Rro Janeiko, Nov. 29.—The gov
ernment has finally re-adopted the old
Hag. This action lias given rise to
some irritation. France has recog
nized the republic.
Jeff Davis Dying.
New Orleans, Nov. 29.—Mr. .Jef
ferson Davis’ condition lias again
become critical—more critical than it
has been at any time since his present
attack, and even the members of his
family admit, for the first time, that
the situation is very discouraging, hut
still cling to the hope that Mr.Davis’
wonderful vitality and recuperative
powers will pull him through.
Reed Claims Victory.
Washington, Nov. 29.—Mr. Reed
lias his big baud on the speakership
cup to night. If no slip occurs he
will lift it to his lips to-morrow after
noon. “I shall he nominated on the
first ballot,” lie said to-night, with an
air of quiet confidence which made it
seem history instead of prophecy.
He claims eighty-three votes to-night,
and expects accessions from the west
and south to-morrow.
Harrison's Message.
Washington, Nov. 29.—The Pres
ident revised the last draft of his mes
sage yesterday, and to-day three of
the clerks at the white house were
making manuscript copies of it to lie
sent to the two houses of congress oil
Monday. Very little interest seems
to he felt in what President Harrison
may have to say, except in regard to
silver and a national election law. lie
is set down on both sides of both ques
tions.
Killed Himself.
Atlanta, Nov. 29.—A tragedy
was enacted in a Marietta street law
office this morning, in which Judge
Robert B. Trippe, a well known young
attorney, took his life. Judge Trippe
went to his office shortly after eight
o’clock, and in a few minutes fired the
fatal shot, using a double barrelled
derringer and putting a bullet in his
right temple. The hall went through
his ear and lodged in near his left ear.
He was dead before the people on the
same floor could get to him. They
found him stretched out upon the
floor. His overcoat was still on, his
hat was near by, and tho pistol lay at
his feet.

Editor Times- Enterprise :
I left our little city last week, thinking I
would huv ;i few holiday goods, and get
hack hefojf any one knew it. But since
coming, I have changed my mind. I want
every one to know it, and I want every one
to come to see me when I return, and see if
I do not f»‘ll them the truth and nothing but
tlie truth. Just at this tunc of the year
business is very dull here, and merchants
are anxious to sell. Their papers are fall
ing due, and a great many cannot meet
them. Why, 1 attended a wholesale auction
sale to-day "of dry goods, where over a
million dollars worth of goods were sold,
and if I had had the money I could have
made my fortune, However, 1 bought some,
ami my customers will hear from me on my
return. I bought my holiday goods at a
bankrupt sale, and I can sell them for less
than it cost to make them.
The famous C. B. Rouse took me under
his wing and sold me goods very cheap. He
is a southern man who started with nothing
in the greatest city on earth, and yet com
paratively young, has carved his name on
the highest piuacle of fortune. He is
proud of his sou ‘hern blood, and has a ten I
thousand dollar picture of R. E. Lee hung
up in his store to let the world know that
he is proud of Lee and the southern cause.
I consider him the best business man in
America, and sells the best goods for the
money on earth. I want my customers to
know that I bought my goods of Rouse, and
I will prove to them that 1 have bought
them cheaper than any house in Georgia.
Yours,
declu<>t\v2t B. A. Bass.

Cured by Cuticura
For three years I was almost crippled with an
rful sore leg from my knee down to my ankle,
e skin was entirely gone, and the flesh was one
ass of disease. Some physicians pronounced
incurable. It had diminished about one third
,e size of the other, and 1 was in a hopeless
ndition. After trying all kinds of remedies
id spending liuudreds of dollars, from which
got no relief whatever. I was persuaded to try
mr Cuticura Remedies, and the result was as
Hows: After three lays 1 noriccd a decided
tange for the better, and at the end of two
onths I was completely cured. My Ilcsli was
iritted, amt the hone (which had been exposed
•r a year) got sound. The flesh begon to grow,
id to-day, and for nearly t .vo years past, my
g is as well as ever it was, sound in every re
ject, and not a sign of the di^pase to be seen.

At night beside the gate full oft,
When courtship has begun,
These words are whispered low and soft,
••Do, please, dear Fan, just one!”
Just one! Yes, yes, but people say
It happens o’er and o’er,
When one he gets he’ll beg and pray:
“Dear Fanny, just one more.”
But when they twain are made one
the rule will reverse. She will beg
for one, and one more of those elegant
hats on Lower Broad. Of course he
too will as gracefully yield, for he re
members one good turn deserves an
other, and then the style and price
is beyond question.
