A good crop has been made but they share the general rise. The rejiortcd short crops has pro. duoed a regular panic in prices and every thing is holding at au unrea sonable figure. These prices ought not to continue as the effect of the short crop has not yet been felt. From Judge Kenny, who has just received a letter from Gwinnett conn.- ty we learn that diptheria is prevail ing to an alarming extent and with generally fatal results among the chil dren of that county.

The crops in*Beaverdam district were greatly damaged. Seme say it was the heaviest rain and hail they ever saw fall. Ilail stones as large as a man’s thumb were seen in abundance and tbe cotton was literally beat into the grouud or washed away. The crops in bottom lands in many places were washed entirely away; tiuiDers and fences were very much damaged. Mr. Juo. Carter had a fine mule killed by a falling tree. The entire damage we have not learned, but the entire section received more or less damage. Fresh Groceries. It is always important to know where you can get groceries of the best quality and at the lowest prices. This information is given iu the ad vertisement of Messrs. Parker & Camp Bros, in the Banner to-day. An in spection of their stock will verify what they say. It is large and varied and has been bought to suit the trade ot Atliens and the surrounding country. Mr. Parker has been in business lieie long enough to know just what is needed and has supplied it. He and the Messrs. Camp, will be found ft all times polite and attentive and no one will have cause to complain in trading with them. We can commend their goods to purchasers. In heavy gros ceries, such as flour, sugars, coffee, etc., they keep the best, while their fancy goods are always fresh. It will be difficult to call for anything they haven’t got. We hope our readers will call and trade with them. horrible accident had just occurred by ] which one man was killed outright and another so badly wounded that he could not survive. An inquiry disclosed the fact that the un tortus nate men were Mr. Lewis Reese and Mr. Andrew Ross, the former being killed and the latter seriously bruised and mutilated. As we gathered the facts from those at the factory who saw the men immediately after the accident we learn that they were by themselves, and no one saw them at the time the explosion occurred. For several months blasting has been going on at the factory for the purpose of clearing the rockajout of the river where they interfered with tho sup ply of water. These men were down in the race where the water comes from the wheel and were preparing a heavy blast. It seems that they always prepared sev eral and had them ready to explode when the hands in the factory were at dinuer. They were packing in tho powder, paper and other material used when suddenly and without warning fire was communicated and it went off with the dreadful result mentioned. Mr. Reese was found lying face downward on some rocks over which the water was pouring and about eight feet from the blast. Mr. Ross was a few leet away making an effort to scramble up the embankment, but unable to do so. Mr. Reese was dead when the hands about tbe mill reached him and Mr. Ross was bleeding ter ribly. He had powder burnt into his flesh and was badly lacerated. Soon after the occurrence the men were removed to their respective hemes, where an inquest was held this afternoon. We will give to-mor row any additional tacts the inquest may disclose. tion. And the exhibits promise to be large and varied.

It has been stated that a corner can be made in almost everything except the great staple, but it seems this is not entitled to be called an exception, since it is stated that the English spinners are doing their best to de press the price; and prevent the short crop from bringing any more in pros portion than that ot last year. They are doing this by stopping their mills er running on short time with the hope of decreasing the demand. But it is not likely the matter will work to their benefit after ail, as speculators are realizing that the^price mast go up and are buying aud holding all they can get. The spinners wifi likely pay good price after all, and their foolish move wifi have the effect of hurting themselves and the producer, while the men who can hold the crop wifi fatten. Our farmers are almost obliged to sell as fast as they cm get their crops to market and are now getting less than they did a month ago, with the price tending still lowei. Those who wifi think about it mnst see that tbe short crop is obliged to increase the price at some time, ss the demand will be greater than the supply. If the producers cobid hold what they make or a greater part of it, they would get Um benefit of the increased price when it comes, aud it would come all the sooner if they were tbe holders. We hope that those of our planters who can do so, wifi hold a portion of tlieir crops. Thnt Stephenson Murder Case. Our readers remember the report of the shooting of Mrs. Stephenson in Gwinnett county about six weeks ago by her step-nephew also named Ster phenson, and the excitement that pres vailed on account of it. It has been a remarkable case in some respeois, and lias served as the principal topic ot interest since in all the section around where it occurred. The most remarkable thing connected with it is that the woman has not died, though there has not been a day when it was not said there no hope of her recov ery. It. was thought that she must die in less than a week, bnt she has lin gered for six weeks. The same report is now made that she cannot get well The testimony before the committing court allowed that tbe gun used was an old army musket It was loaded with balls which the prisoner moulded himself The gun moulds and one or tww of the balls have been found. Since the shooting the superior court has been in session and an application was made to Judge Erwin to fix the bail for the prisoner’s release. He said he would do so ; and named $15,000 as the amount, which was a virtual denial, as there was no hope of Ste phenson giving it. The Judge did not intend that he should get out merely to ran away and escape jn» tice, as he certainly would do. The trial was not held because no one could tell the result of the wounds, and if she dies, as it is believed she must, it would not do to try him for a less offense than murder. In the wounds tbe woman received, and the fact that she haa survived so long there is some similarity to the case ot tbe dead president. It has seemed impos sible that she could live a week long er at any stage of her case, and yet she is still alive. Instead of one wound as the president received, she has three, all of them in the back near tbe kidneys. One of the balls is lodged in her spine and it is dangerous to attempt to extract it for fear of her immediate death. Altogether the case is decidedly interesting, and we wifi keep onr read' era posted about it as it progresses. In the meeting at Deupree Opera house Monday to consider the ques tion of a railroad to Jefferson there were not so many of onr citizens as [ was desirable, but if all who were not there wifi come to the aid of those who feel most interested in it, the road can be built. As we stated Monday speeches were made by several gentlemen, all ad mitting the necessity for the road and urging the prompt action of our peo ple. Col. Thurmond showed that by raising the amount necessary to grade and place crossties on the road the money could be turned over to the board of directors, and the work would be done by them. They are pushing the work on tbe other side of Jefferson, building half a mile a week and by March the road would be in running order! He said our people could thus save their trade and secure more. If they desired after a while they could build a branch to Jug Tavern. With the road to Jefferson we would soon have a direct line to Dahlooega and possibly beyond. Judge II. W. |Bell, Ordinary of Jackson county, and onejof the direc tors of the G. J. & S. road stated the condition of the Toad at present. He said the work had reached to within miles of Jefferson. The work had all been paid for up to this time. Ar rangements have been made to equip tbe road as soon as it is ready. The work of laying the iron wifi commence in two weeks, $245,000 of bonds have been negotiated. He felt sure that if Athens wifi raise the amount necessary to grade and crosstie the road the directors will accept it and build this end ot the line. He made other statements calculated to encour age Athens to proceed at ouce in this matter. •Judge W. B. Thomas said we must have the road, but his plan was that Athens should control it and not let the Gainesville directors who are hos tile to us have anything to do with it. He was assured that if 815,000 was raised here the balance necessary to grade and equip it would be forth coming from men connected with the Richmond and Danville company. Coi. Thurmond did not agree with Judge Thomas’ idea. He thought it was afire brand and would cheat ui out of our road. He believed if Ath' ens would do her dutv as he had indi cated, she would have no difficulty in controlling the trade. He understood the Gainesville idea to be to get a competing line and she was right. The road would be built to Monroe but that would not hurt Athens. We have the best market, as good as Aa gusta or Atlanta, and Gainesville would have no reason to fight us she got the road she wanted. Hon. Emory Speer thought we ought to raise the money at once. Tbe road is a necessity and the plan is ot no great consequence so the road is built Hon. Pope Barrow believed if Ath ens would raise enough money she could control the whole road. At any rate, it ought to be built. Gen. Phil lips had told him that a road would be built from Ball Ground to Dahlon- ega and when this was done, if we had the Jefferson road, there would be a continuous line of 90 miles long of narrow gauge road lrom Athens into the best part of the north coun try. He insisted that our people re spond liberally. The committee consi-ting of R. B. Russell, S. P. Thurmond, W. D. O’Farrell, J. E. Tal- mad go and Julius Cohen were ap pointed to solicit subscriptions. Five thousand dollars have been subscribed. Wifi our people refuse to give liber ally? BURKE COUNTY VENDETTA. Fire Men Settle a Dispute br Killing Two or tthe Part) aud TSeriously,Wounding a Third—The Two Bemmlniag Escape. A horrible tragedy occnned yes terday a short distance from Augusta and just beyond our county line in Burke. A parly of five citizens had gathered at the office of Magistrate Duncan Cjx, near Green’s cut, for tor the settlement of a legal difficulty and in a dispute which followed two of the party were killed, another seri ously wounded, the whole crowd en- gaging in a general ptBtol practice. Minute particulars are impossible to-day, and, indeed, the affair is re ported by eye witnesses and parties in the neighborhood to have been so sudden and so mixed up that it is im possible to say who shot first or who fired the fatal bullets. The general facts are clear, however' and horrible indeed. Mr. Thomas Smith and his two sons, Arthur and Mike, were on one side of the conflict, and Messrs. Charles J. Walker and Ed Palmer on the other. Arthur Smith was shot and killed by either Palmer or Walk er, and Walker was killed by Tom .Smith, the father. Mike Smith was seriously wounded, and it was thought last night that he could not recover. At last accounts the two men es caped unharmed in the general shoot ing and had not been arrested. C. J. Walker is well known as a son of Col. A. C. Walker, and is remembered as the man wbo shot a Mr. Miller,in the famous Green’s Cut tragedy of several years ago. The affair creates a great sensation in the neighborhood, and beside the inquests which are held, the matter wifi undergo a thorough investigation. Nothing is known of the origin of the quarrel and the fatal and bloody ven detta beyond the fact that it was a magistrate’s court difficulty. Col. Jack Brown, of Georgia, is irrepressible. He visited President Arthur, the other day, at the head of a delegation, and requested the ap pointment ot W. W. Hicks, late ot Florida, as Postmaster General Ther a is nothing like being early enough, and Col. Jack Brown is always early. —Post-Appeal. Macon, Ga., March 20tb, 1S80. Messrs.

Senator Lamar's Views. Mobile, September 24.—Senator Lamar was interviewed by a reporter, and said : ‘I cannot say that I antici pate a conservative administration under President Arthur, at least if I am allowed to judge by his present antecedents. He bas hitherto acted, if not under the inspiration of Mr. Conkling, in closest sympathy and co-operation with the views of the Senator from New York. There is nevertheless everything in the the sur rounding conditions of his accession to power to promote a departure from what would have been bis orig inal policy, and he cannot possibly pursue a very stalwart one and one of reaction against tbe conservative methods instituted by Mr. Hayes and followed by Mr. Garfield, without coming into direct conflict with the rulings and tendencies of the times.’ Indictment Indications. The New Jersey authorities have notified District Attorney Corkhill that no requisition wifi be made for Guiteau. His indictment wifi prob ably be secured early this week, and trial speedily follow. Though noth' ing has been heard from Scoville, Guiteao’s brother-in -law, who has been asked to defend him. Guiteau says ho will leave the matter entire ly in Scoville’s hands. ■ A Horrible Story of Cruelty. |- |An extraordinary and almost in credible story of cruelty comes trom Jersey City, where a mother is charg ed with deliberately starving her child to death, aud announcing its death, providing a coffin, and actually ar ranging the body as if for burial be fore it had breathed its last. When its condition was discovered, starva tion was so far advanced that life could not be saved. This remarkable parent is charged by her own sister with having lost three ol L or children in the same way. A Singular Fact. N. JY. Son.
