Brewer <fc Hanleiter gives notice
to the farmers that they have reduced

sitte brick warehouse Griffin, Ga,
The Argus man announces that
there is complaint at every post office
in the county, except Stark, that the
Argus does not reach his subscriberss
We have had similar complaints made
at this office because dor patrons have
missed getting a few coppies of the
News, but the truth is they were taken
from the office and never delivered to
the owner. Be have had people to
tell us they could get on track of their
papers in the neighborhood but Cotild
never get them; they had always
just paasad it to the next neighbor, or
sent it home by somebody, after it had
gone the rounds of the neighborhood,
who forgot to deliver it. We don’t
claim to be perfect, for it is said “No
man is perfect, no, not one;” and we
presume what is true in a scriptural
sense will apply to other things. We
are glad, however, and we presume our
brother delinquent post masters else
where in the county, agree with us,
that the Stark post master, like Elija,
the next thing to it, seems to be an
acception (?) to the general rule.
The Argus has been received at the
Jackson post office more than once
in a very bad condition—without
cord or paper wrapping, with Jackson,
Stark, Worthville and Towaliga, all
mixed and tgngled up together, as
though the mail carrier had caught
them on the “ fly ” while passing the
Argus office at a 2-40 rate, and by
some trick adroitly performed known
to the art of legerdeman, that secluded
all observation ns they passed into the
mail sack. Notknovving his subscrib
ers and their post offices, through the
kindness of Captain Loyd, and others,
we were enabled to sorter get Stark
and Worthville papers assorted, and
we naturally concluded that the bal
ance of the “chow-chow" belonged to
Jackson and Towaliga. Now, under
the postal laws, a post master is not
obliged to bother with mail matter
transported in any such condition, nor
is he obliged to handdle newspapers
folded larger than is required by the
department.
Since the Post Master General has
made post masters responsible to pub
lishers, for the price of subscription!
for failing to notify him of the remov
al of a subscriber or the refusal to take
papers from the office, the publisher
ought to he made to pay the post mas
ter when he fails to discontinue his pa
per after receiving said notice. It’s a
poor rule that won’t work both ways,
and there is no bigger nuisance to post
masters than having to handle dead
newspapers. You might notify some
publishers 50 times and they would
continue to send the publication.
Some of our people say, subscribing
to a country weekly is the next thing
to perpetual motion and equal to “the
7 years ich.” You become a stock
holder in the concern and assessed the
subscription price to keep the machine
running. Publishers might gain some
valuable information by reading up on
the postal laws.

We will continue light diet until wheat
harvest and blackberry time. We
have all been peacable during Judge
Willis and Solicitor Worn mack’s so
journ in the county last week.
We have been planting corn and will
increase the acreage of last year. We
have laid in some of our “polecat land”
for the cotton crop, the price of which
range from 390 to 500 pounds of lint
cotton per ton. The high price agents
say the cheap grades are not standard
fertilizers. I think they are all about
the same. The tags put upon the
sacks protects the dealer, and is hut lit
tle protection, if any, to the consumer,
as the State Chemist often analyzes it
long after we nave purchased and gave
our notes. The 15 per cent cotton op
tion is getting to be a humbug. They

Politics is easy, with a few excep
tions. The femenine sex don’t fancy
Uucle Joe's Mormon speech. A few
Demotrats don’t fancy his voting with
the Republicans. A few reformers and
econennst don’t like his idea of sala
ried clerks, and his voting to make a
National pauper of Gen. Grant, by re
tiring him with an annual salary of
thirteen thousand dollars. I expect
Gen. Grant is a gentleman; I have
neverment him. I did meet his hoys
a few years ago ; they were hostile in*
stead of hospitable towards me. But
they and myself were acting under or
ders from our masters, and I hold no
enmity towards them. We are not so
“Organized” that we can t see or feel.
I have read some interviews of poli
ticans and office holders; they fight
Whig, Indpenents, Liberalism, and all
other isms, except Bourbonism. They
talk coalition ; they abuese Dr. Fel

betrayed his people, and joined the
Republicans. Constancy, where art

Court Item*.
Mr. and Mrs. Lucian Duke were
granted a divorce.
Airs. Hahly was also granted a di
vorce.
Jno. Smar, charged with assault ahd
attempt to murdel, was acquitted,
Mvs. Jiles was granted alimony of|B
per month during the pending of a
suit for divorce. Mr. Jiles stated that
he had been “brutally treated” by his
wife and that he could not live with
her any longer, under any circum
stances.
Thompson, who was indicted for the
murder of Tony several years
ago, was acquitted at the last term of
the court. Thompson was tried at the
time of the killing and sentenced to
the chaingangfor 15 years. It was an
ngrivated case ; ALison debauched his
sister and it appears that he boasted of
it in presence of Thompson and some
of his friends, when he stabbed Alason
skilling him instantly. Col. AlcKibben,
who has no peer in this section at the
I*7, through his unceasing efforts se
cured for Thompson anew trial, and
released him from the chaingang on
bond. JPe did not hear the Colonels
speech for the defence, but wev'e heard
it spoken of as a masterly effort. His ap
peals to the jury were said to he thouch
ing and convencing. While there was
very little law for Thompson, and very
strong circumstantial evidence against
him, yet the sympathetic and eloquent
arguement of his council, in a moral
point, was so conclusive, that the jury
was constrained to belive the killing
was justifiable, and set him at liberty.
The verdict, we believe, met the ap
proval of all we heard speak of it.
Young Thompson wept bitterly during
the progress of his trial.
Judge Carmichael, our ordinary,
showed us the other day some blank
hooks he had received to be used by
Justices of the Peace and lor the pur
pose of carrying out certain laws pass
ed by the last Legislature, concerning
l ; quor dealers. In order that saloon
keepers may fully understand the law
we give b*low a synopsis of it: It
requires that after the first day of
April, 1882, sellers of liquor shall, be
fore engaging in business, register
their names w ith the Ordinary ol the
county in which they propose to car*
ry on business. A special hook is
kept for that purpose. It is than
made the duty of the Odinary to
notify the Tax Collector of his conn
ty and the Comptroller-General of
the State of the registration ; and
the Comptroller is required to keep a
register of tbe same. ThoTaxCollector
is also required to keep a record of
the iiam- ol the liquor dealer. When
the register is made the dealer is re
quired to at once pay to the Tax
Collector the entire yeai’s tax, and
the law provides that a failure to pay
the tax or to register is punishable as
a misdemeanor. The Tax Collector
is required to give information against
the offender, and his tai ure to do so
makes it the duty of the Comptroller*
General to proceed against him for
he amount due by the defaulting li
quor dealer. The books are furnished
l>y the Comptroliet-Getn ral to tlie
Ordinaries and Tax Collectors The
Tax Collectore are to make quarterly
reporis to the Comptroller-General
and remit to the State Treasurer. The
act does not relieve saloon keepers
from the operations of the United
Stales laws or local laws. Tlie grand
juries of the counties are required to
examine the registers, and to indict
off riders.
It is not generally known that par
lies selling any kind of intoxicating
bitiers, without making application
to the ordinary and taking out a Its
cense, are violators of the law and
liable to be indicted by the Grand
J ary.
Monday was the first Spring day.
Corn has advanced 10c per bushel,

Married, on Tuesday night last at
the residenc of the brides father by
Rev. W. G. McMichael, Mr. Julius
Stodgehill to Miss Margaret Meridith,
of this county.
We learn from Rev. W. G McMichael
that a fire occurred atUnionville Mon
roe county, on last Sunday morning,
distroying the storehouse and goods of
Mr. Jno. Pbinizy. Said to be set on
fire.
Pstapsco Acid Phosphate can he

per ton.
On Sunday mght last "“m" PHy
fired ihe corn crib of Mr. J. L. Hal l ,
in Laurens county, and discharged a
pistol to attract the attention of the
iarnily.
We learn there is some complaint
that few cases are being disposed of in
the County Court. This is, however,
unavoidably so on account of the health
of Judge Hendrick, judge ofthe court.
The Judges’health since his appoint
ment has been exceeding had. Judge
Hendrict. has the ability and makes a
good judge, and it is to he regretted
that his healt has been such as to pre
vent his attending to his official duties.
It is thought that if he does not im
prove so he can resume his duties
shortly, that he will resign the judge
ship. We hope|he will be able for bus
iness by the next court day.
Grand Jury Prettentmenhi
We, the Grand Jury, drawn, chosen
and sworn for the Alareh term of Buttfc

We find the public roads throughout
’.he- county have received the usual at
tention, except those roads crossed or
appropriated by tlio Alacon & Bruns
wick railroad, and we recommend that
the Ordinay confer with the 11. It. ou
thorities and have them put in good
order immediately and so Changed as
to require as few crossings as possi
ble.
We find the Court Hofisc and Jail
needing slight repai rs. We recommend
that the North-west room of the court
house l>e hereafter used for a Grand
Jury room.
We have examined and approved
the'dockets of J/addox, Douglass, Bar
net, Lynch and Bankston, Justices of
the Peace, but find the dockets of Bled
soe, Neal, Thurston, Flynt and Brown
incorrectly kept. The dockets of Bell,
Smith and Evans, have not been pre
sented.
On account of limited time at the
disposal of Grand Juries, they are una
ableto propperly examine books and
papers belonging to the several county
officers, therefore, we recommend that

at or near a large rock near the Sim
mon’s place in the town of Alclntosh,
said bridge to be about 100 feet long,
resting upon rock abutments, provided
the town council of Alclntosh will se
cure the rightofway for roads approach
hingsnid bridge and grade the same,
and fill in the abutments free of cost to
the county, and also connect theDouh*
liti road so that only one bridge will be
required, and that the Ordinary shall
not let-out said contract until the above
termsarecomplied with. One-third of
the cost of said bridge to he paid in
the (all of 1882 and ballnnce in 1883.
We recommend the Ordinary to have
a substantial fence built around tbe
court house square, and also take out
an insurance policy on the court house
to the anioi^ K f $5000,00.
We that the Ordinary

Mr. Editor.—Our farmers are as

next week. They all say that they
arc going to plant more acres than usu
al in the stall' of life, and lesson the
area in cotton, also the amount of gu
ano.
The wheat and oat crops are very
fine to date, but I hear fears express

one of our best farmers, has just
told us that hi* wheat has the white
mold.
Fruit prospects were never more
promising than now.
Some of our farmers are complain
ing of being hindered by fruit agents.
If you see any about your city, please
inform them that they are not wanted
up this way at present.
Barnes & Hendrick will lay in their
Spring stock next week ; bring along
your surplus produce, as they are do
