Communicated;] ;«
Dii. Carlton—Having visited
Low Prices.
me pleasure to speak a good word in
behalf of the people of CarnesvilSe
and Fraitklin county generally.
It will be remembered that in days
agone the vote of Franklin county,
on one occasion, decided the result
of the election for Governor of Geor
gia. That was in the days when
Whig and Democracy were the only
political parties known to Southern
politicians and when the territory of
I’ ranklin and Wilkes counties em-
bracedJhe country now included in
Elbert., Madison, Hart, and almost a‘
dozen other counties which have
been created . by latter-day Legisla
tures. At that time the Morrisses,
Knoxes and a few others of equal
talent, exercised the political influ
ence now wielded by mere than a
score who live in the same territory,
their opinions were accepted as polit
ical gospel, and as they voted so
voted this majority. Times have
changed since then, and men have
changed with them. New counties
have been created; senaterial dis
tricts have been added; the number
of representatives has been increased,
ambition* .politician
or lo^er of political honors has a
three-fold chance to win renown to
that ot his fathers.
Well, with all the changes of
county Hues and legislative enact
ments Franklin is yet one of the best
counties in the State. The lineal
descendants of patriot fathers take
pride in illustrating the examples of
their sires, and llie voice cf Franklin
to-day is but the echo of those wise
heads who in former years contribu
ted so much to the good government
of the great commonwealth of Geor
gia.
As stated above my visit was in
the interest of the Banner. The
spring term of the Superior Court
was in session, and of course a large
majority of the people were iu at ten
dance. I found the Banner univer
sally popular as a newspaper and a
large majority who favored its
political course. The good people ol
that county have not forgotten the
political redemption wrought by the
organized democracy when our State
was in the hands of Bullock and his
despoilers; neither are they nnmind
ful of the fact that organization saved
the State of South Carolina ■which
lie’s so near them from the same des
potic hands, and they are determined
to preserve that power which' 1 was
the bulwark of the people in the
darkest days of" our political history.
Within the borders of'Franklin
couni^r are*some of the fhi^stframririg
lands in the State. (Sorii/^i&ttch,

Grevfi, thereby aftording ample-and
ready transportation for-all tbe pro
ducts of the county, there would be
no place in Georgia : more desirable
and no tpunty in the State tliat
would coniribute more to our general
wealth than Franklin ? ; .i < j;
My official business prevented me
from waiting on tbe deliberations of
the court, but overheard Judge Rice,
in private conversation with a friend
say that Franklin could boast of some
ot the best officers iu the State; aod
that'in consequence of their prompt
ness and efficiency we was enabled
to accomplish in four days that which
in many counties of his circuit would
have required six. Indeed, he is so
taken with my friend John McCarter
as a Sheriff, that be remarked to him
in a crowd, before leaving Carncsville
that as long as he was Judge he
wanted Mr. Ale. to be Sheriff.
In reference to the business of the
Court I copy the following from
that excellent paper the Carnesville
Register^ to the Editor of which', Mr.
T. W. Ayers/ I am indebted for
tiiany*^ pleasant acquaintances, aud
who seemed not to weary in making
my visit agreeable:
“ There was a large amount of busi
ness iu court, but no cases of much
importance. We append a report of
the most important criminal cases
which Were tried at this term:
The State vs. Lovtiy E. Segars—
tailing v without .license.
Guilty. Fine fifteen dollars and
costs, or imprisonment in county jail
three months.
The State vs. Rufus Johnson, col
assault and battery. Guilty. ine
twenty dollars.
We understand that the Alorris
case was compromised by plaintiff
paying three hundred dollars.
The State vs. Edmond Corson,
col’d, assault and battery. Guilty.
Fine $50.
The State vs. John Mayfield, col,
disturbing public worship. Guilty.
Fine $20.”
I will not close this communication
without copying from the Register
the highly deserved compliment to
our worthy Solicitor General Mitchel.
The Register says:
“ When we repeat what Judge
Rice has said of Col> Mitchell, we pay
him a compliment which we think is
not ill directed—that he is one of the
most promising young men iu the
State of Georgia. Never have we
had any Solicitor on this circuit (none
excepted) that guarded the inteiest
of the State closer than does Col.
Mitchell. Several criminals have ap
peared before the court this week
and the Solicitor has not failed to
convict a single one. May he long
remain the Solicitor of-tire. Western

[From tbe New York Tribane.]
About a month ago Mrs. Catherine
Keonan, who lives with her husband
and a grown up daughter, in a shanty
on Bush street, Red Hook, Brooklyn,
was bitten on the wrist by a favorite
cat, which was fighting with other
cats near her residence. Mrs. Kee
nan paid no attention to the wound,
whieh healed, leaving two small scars.
On Thursday morning she began to
feel severe pains in the wrist which
was bitten. These gradually extent
ded up. the arm, and site became so
sick tljgt early Thursday evening she
sent fqjr^.the Rev. Laurence Toner,
assistant pastor of the Chufuh of St.
Mary, Star of the Sea. When told
of the cat’s bite, he surmised that it
was a case ot<. hydrophobia. This
opinion w^s confirmed by offering
Mrs. Keenan some water, whiclr
threw her into a spasm/
Father Toner at once summoned
Dr. Geo. W. Welty, of No. (f60
Cliuton street, who fouud Mrs.
Keenan sittiug up in bed in ^ intense
agony, her eyes wild and protruding,
and grasping her throat convulsively.
Her daughter brougiit a teaspoon of
W’ater to her, but. it threw her into a
tremor and caused her to breathe
with difficulty. A tablespoonful of
water ws* brought at her request/
but when it was offered’ 'to hef"she
exclaimed wildly : ** I’ll tear you.”
At length she swallowed it. Dr
Welty prescribed sulphate of morphia,
and called in consultation Drs.
•Nathaniel and A W, Ford, who
agreed with him that it was a genu
ine case of hydrophobia. No drugs
xeemed to have any effect.
Yesterday morning the symptoms
were more aggravated. Mrs. Keenan
had been unable to s'eep during the
night and her pulse was at loO. At
noon she was frothing at the mouth,
but was able to take a little gruel.
She refused to lie in bed, but stood
at a window, leaning with both hands
upon a table. Late in the afternoon,
Mrs. Keenan was much weaker, and
it was evident that she could not live
very long. Even then she was un
willing to lie in bed, and when laid
upon it would persist in sitting up.
When she was offered, some tea she
took the cup in her hand, refused to
swallow the fluid Mrs. Keenan is
sixty-seveu years of age.
Mrs. Keenan’s spasms increased in
frequency toward the evening, and
she grew visibly weaker. At 7:25
p. m. her death occurred. Dr. Weltz
said, last evening, that he never' fia'd
any doubt that it was a genuine case
of hydrophobia. He considered it a
case of great’importance to the medi
cal profession.* f ]
