From the Bainhridge Democrat we see it

Rome Courier : “Jim Black, colored,
of this city, received a beautiful silver
cup at the Southern Industrial Fair, at
Talladega, Ala., for the colored people,

ist. We always knew Jim to be a gGLiI

An exchange notes the fact that the
lowest price at which (o ton has s fid in

The McDuffie Weekly says: “Mr.
George Ivey, of this county, with his
this county, with his two little sons,
aged respectively fourteen and fifteen
years, made this year five hundred bush

sides a good crop of peas, potatoes,
ground peas, etc. Mr. Hulbert Gresham,
with no one hut himself and an occa
sional day laborer, made eight bales of
cotton anil one hundred and fifty bushels

The Rome Courier tells the following:
“A gentleman who supported Dr. Felton
two years ago and voted for Judge Les
ter at the last election, tells this good
joke on himself. It runs thus: ‘ln 187 G
I carried a large nember of negroes to the
polls and they all voted for Dr. Felton.
This year l thought Lester ought to be
elected, and expected to vote my colored
fellow-citizens for him; but when the
election day came, they all went and
voted for Felton again: and I learned
then, for the first time, that the niggers
voted me in 1876, instead of me voting
the niggers.’ ”

Albany News: “We are reliably in
formed hv a gentleman in position to
know, that a sale of the Brunswick and
Albany Railroad has positively been ef
•leeted, that the English company who
have been negotiating for some time are
the purchasers; that they have made the
first payment of $200,000; and that pos
session will he given them on the Ist day
of next month. We understand, too,
that the road will be completed at once

A curious character has just died in
Atlanta. Ills name was Paddy Quail,
and be must have been, from all accounts,
a veiv decided genius. The Constitution
says of him: “All our people remember
Paddy Quail. He was one of the oldest
citizens of Atlanta, and was considered
an old man when they commenced to
build tbe town. lie was a hard working
man, faithful to his friends and remem
bering his enemies, lie is the man that
Dan Hhelume once introduced before
Judge Hammond to prove that it was the
same old drunk that he (Dan) was on, a
drunk that Dan had already paid a fine
on. Paddy swore that he knew that Dan
had not been sober since he was fined,
and told Judge Hammond that he ought
not to live him again for the same drunk.
We once had an enterprising young man
in our midst who undertook to eat thirty
quails in thirty days. When he was
nearly through with the task some one
carried Paddy to him and offered to bet
the young man fifty dollars that he could
not eat that Quail in thirty days. The
old man is dead. He made an arrange
ment with Mr. John Stephens, one of
our leading merchants, more than three
years ago, that whichever died first was
to be decently buried by the other.
When Mr. Stephens heard of the poor
old man’s death he went around among
his friends, made up a purse, and a few
days ago the old man was laid away in
better style than he had lived—followed
to the grave bv his fellow countrymen.”
