Almost a Fire.—Yesterday a fire
broke out in the lint room of Prince
ton factory and for a short time great
excitement prevailed—but fortunately
the flames were subd ied without ma
te* lal damage.
Another Black Horse.—There is
strong probability of a negro revenue
collector being cbeseu in this district.
He will doubtless meet with a hearty
reception from those mountain boys.
Let this black boom continue.
Work Progressing.—The founda
tion for the Lucy Cobb chapel has

veyor of customs, was completed and

Sandy Creek Bridge—The sub
ject of building another bridge over
tlie river so as to bring the trade of tlie
new road opened from Sandy Creek
down College avenue is being agitat
ed by our up-town merchants. Tills
road will furnish a smooth and bem-
tiful drive—something badly needed
by Athens.
A Granite Bed.—There is a mag
nificent bed of fine building granite at
Jug Tavern on the estate of Col. Wiley
Bush. The chimneys of the houses
for five miles each way are built of
this stone. It splits in layers and can

buying up cattle in and near Athens
for shipment to Augusta and Savan

will lie three men in the cattle busi

Seago is leader pttliqjunateur minstrel

—even going so far as offering her mon
ey not, to tell on him. But he soon found

grief was deep apd undisguised. She

Mrs. Seago also stated that she was in

It was whispered on tlie street corn
ers yesterday evening that Drs. Ben
edict and Campbell had been dis
patched to Quitman by Solicitor-Gen
eral Mitchell to exhume the body of
Walter Rountree and find the ball
that caused his death. Tlie mission
of these two gentlemen, who returned
to the city Sunday evening, was not
known probably to any one outside of
the state’s counsel. We endeavored
to get all the facts and lay them before
our readers this morning, but the .So
licitor-Genera! und Dr. Benedict re
fused to be interviewed, and therefore
iiad to rely solely on what we could
gather 011 the streets, and give them
to tfie public for what they are worth.
Tlie ba I that Dr. Benedict cut from
the b-idy of Walter Rountree was
brought to city on his return Sunday
evening, and was weighed, to
gether with another ball taken
from Frank Johnson’s pistol, by Dr.
Joe Jacobs, at his drug store on Col
lege avenue, and tbe result was ascer
tained that the ball that ended Wal
ter Roumree’s life came from Bartow
Rountree’s pistol.
We would have been glad to have
given an extended account of tlie
whole proceedings, but those that
knew the facts refused to reveal them
unless all other parties gave theirco.i-
sent.
Even if these rumors are correct, and
they are correct in so far as our infor
mation goes, it by no means disposed
of Frank Johnson and Enos Echols.
They yet have gloomy roads to travel
before they can bask iu the sunlight
of freedom. They will be charged
witli an assault witli attempt to mur
der, and there is 110 doubt that they
intended to murder young Rountree
when they met him on tlie fatal even
ing, and 4liey will be con.feted on
that charge. Tlie penalty is ten years
in tlie chain-gang. Tlie foil particu
lars will be given in to-morrow’s pa
per.

\ gentleman informs Mr. Water
man, of the Monroe Advertiser, of a
novel plowing arrangement he saw as
he passed along the road the other day.
A negro man was opening a furrow
with a mule hitched to the plow. Be
hind him came a girl, dropping the
seed. Tbe man had a kind p.’ man-
harness on, and. he was^puUinganoih-
•r plow;- whfoh srftt"g3lile3 by a wo
man, to cover the seed. Not having
but one mule, he put that one on doub
le duty by maki.ig it help to pull him,
A'hile be pulled the second plow. This
wa not a bad idea iVom an economic
point of view, though it must have put
ihe sturdy plowman’s strength to a se-
verelest.
If the Athens firemen fall ta win,
they are too good naturvd to kick.
