a KOBO IA \KW*. Gleaning* and Winnowing* from Our State Exchange*. Five hundred hats were lost, and won in Atlanta on election day. Dr. Chas. F. W. Rauschenburg, one of the best and most popular citizens of Atlanta, died last Sunday, lie was a native of Germany, hut had lived in Georgia since 1848. They are asserting with grave faces that sugar cane grows so luxuriantly in Brooks county that when they want to o-et a stalk lengthwise into a freight car they have double it (the stalk) up. It is generally believed that the hog is the deadly foe and great dread of the rat tlesnake, Vet it is stated that in Colquitt county last week one of the venomous reptiles attacked and killed live hogs. The hotel waiter of Macon who stole a pair pants and then was foolish enough to wear them where they could be iden tified, has been sentenced to pay a fine of twenty-five dollars or six months in the chain gang. The Mofiet register, having proven such a successful tax gatherer in Virginia, has attracted to itself the attention ot our own State legislature, and a bill looking to its establishment in Georgia has al ready been introduced. From the Bainhridge Democrat we see it stated that Miller, the mulatto, who set lire to the Browne Block, in that place, and which was thereby destroyed, is now upon his trial before the Superior Court, i The evidence is strong against him. A negro man in Covington was shot in the head by another negro and though the ball is still in his head, he lives and is not rejKirted materially inconven ienced. The Enterprise thinks the fact of Ids having been shot in the head may save his life. On the Bth inst. little Vera Sheffield, of Laurens county, aged two years and three months, was sitting on a fence eat ing chufas, when a rail broke and she fell. The fall caused some of the nuts which she had in her mouth to lodge in her throat, and she choked to death in fifteen minutes. Although Moses Allen, the murderer recently executed in Gibson, prior to his death sold his body to a medical student for ten dollars, his wishes in this respect were not complied with by his friends. llis remains were interred at the Union Baptist Church, at Mayfield, soon after his death. 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, for being the best competing solo violin ist. We always knew Jim to be a gGLiI player, but that lie should take the first premium at a large fair does indeed a lit tle surprise us.” An exchange notes the fact that the lowest price at which (o ton has s fid in this country during the last fifty years was in the spring of 1842, when it went us low as four cents per pound. The highest price paid for it, during the same period, was one dollar and ninety cents in 1804. It sold as high as fifty-two cents, however, for good money in 18GG. 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 els of corn and ten bales of cotton, be 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 of corn. This shows wliat industry, per severance and proper management will accomplish.” 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.’ ” Two young bloods of Washington re cently became mortally offended, the one with the other, and a duel was decided on between them. Tlieir friends, how ever, determined to have some fun, and “set up a job” on them.” So, when they met unloaded Colt’s revolvers were given them to do thier bloody work. After snapping several caps, the marshal and a posse (as per arrangement) ap peared, and after a lively chase captured the principals, and bound them over for trial in the sum of S3OO each. It was finally agreed that they should be re leased if they would treat to cigars all arounds which was accordingly done, and good fellowship was restored. 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 to Eufaula. Mr. Wheeler is president of the new company, and will take charge of the road. We learn that a prominent man of the Northwest lias been selected as selected as General .Superintendent, and that Colonel Schlatter will be Chief Engineer in charge of construction. The road will be placed in first-class working ■ 1 yy e ’ nn,v£ pilt)- lislied many rumors concerning this en terprise, but now liave reason to believe that the statements made above are ac tual facts, and that the Brunswick and Albany will haul the next cotton crop from Southwest Georgia to the coast.” 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.” THE GENERAL ASSIMBtI. the senate.
