V April 4th 1882. j On and after this date, all advertisements of county matters will be done in the Jackson News By order of the Court. HENRY HENDRICK, Judge 0. C. B. C. Editor Blackburn, of the Madisoni an, was in town last week. A darkey, wanted in Henry county for stealing corn, was arrested by our marshal and confined in the jail. Jl/iss Lula Sanders, Indian Springs most, charming Belle, will visit J/iss Katie Lyons of this place this week. A Jackson gent says she feels near er and dearer since he has been inoc ulated. It’s better than “ love pow ders.” Notice lias been given by the ordina ry, that he has been petitioned to call an election in July, on the fence ques tion, and if no counter petition is filed he will order.-an election. Mr. Jack Nolen and wife, of Mc- Donough, are located at Jackson for the present. Mr. Nolen has charge of the telegraph olliee at this place. Mack says he never felt so girlish in his life as since lie has been vacillated from the arm of a Jackson lie-lie. lie now parts his hair in the middle. Mr. Jud Alnnuid who was prostrated ■at the brick yard hist week, and for a time unconeiotis of his condition, we are pleased to state has recovered and is again able for duty. We learn H. P. Almand has a hun dred thousand brick ready for the torch. It is said he will build two store nousc-* as soon as he burns the first kill of brick. ft] . Fred Hill and McMahon, in at tempting to eject a man from one of the shanty cars at the depot on last Saturday night, fired off their pistols, we presume to frighten him out of the when McMahon was accidently sot through the hand. The wound, though painful, is not serious; no bones broken. 11. O. Benton makes a live real es tate agent. Parties desiring informa tion cons ruing real estate and other property in this section, would do well to addi- -s Mr. Benton. He lias already controle valuable property in and around Jackson, lie will gladly give any information desiri and. The code of Jackson is ready for the press and our people are anxious to know what it contains. The laws are not of force until published. Our mayor, assisted liy Mr. IFm, Mallet, have spent considerable time and la bor codifying and preparing the docu ment, and if it is to be printed before our charter is amended, which is very importont matter to consider, why the sooner the better. Mr. Cloud has moved his machinery to the railroad near Judge Hendrick’s, where he can be found making brick as rappidly as ever. The dirt he is now using is much better, and he hopes to make a success in burning the next lot of brick. The machine he is using the “dry press” has proven a success elsewhere and there is no reason why it should not be operated successfully here. The brick are pressed from dry dirt and are uniform in size and pretty and smoothe as any we ever saw. We had the pleasure of meeting the inevitable Thomas J. Burney, travel ing agent Macon Telegraph and Mes senger, who called upon our people in the interest of that estimable journal. Mr. Burney is at home-among these people, and the fa t that he represents a first-class paper was characterized bythe success with which he met in securing subscribers while here. The decided improvement made in the Messenger under its “ heavy ” editor. Col. Lamar, is quite unprecedented in the history of Georgia journalism. And we say, unhesitatingly, that in our opinion the Messenger is the most ably edited Democratic journal in the State, and to those wanting a live Bour bon paper, “died in tiie wool,” we say take the Telegraph and Messenger. It is not liking in telegraphic and State news, market reports <fcc. The Railroad. The railroad extension is mppully moving on to completion. The grading on this eml of the road being superior to that below Jackson, having less tres tle work to build, the tracklayers have made rapid progress—they will reach McDonough this week. There will be some detention, we learn, beyond Me- Donougfh, <on account of trestle and bridge building, which however, will be but a few days as extra force has been put to work. We can safely cotuvt -on the track being finished to Atlanta by the 10th of July. The road is lined from one end to the other with hands, grading, trestle and bridge building, tracklaying, sinking cattle guards, <fcc. The ballansting gang, 150 in number, under the efficient management/ of Captain Hall, have .pitched their tents at Jackson. ’.Vo made the acquaint ence of those clever gentlemen, Mr, Fred Hi-U tire cwnmissarygenernl of the '‘surfacing ” squad, and Mr. Fred Brunner, engineer on one of the supply trains, from tvhome we learn that the road from Jackson to Macon has been put in good running order and they can make from 30 to 35 miles per hour over that portion of the road. Section hands are being put on as fast as tire road is fini -hished who will keep it iu tip-top ruining order until the Con struction Company are ready to turn it over to the owners, when the road will he equpped with fine coaches, -en gines and other rolling stock adequate to the immense amount of business that will be done over the entire line. Maj. McCracken, chief of consrtuc tion, and his efficient corps of subor dinates meret the commendation and gratitude of the people of this section as well as the praise of the Syndicate, for the dispatch with which the M. <fc B. Extension has progressed since the survey was made. In less than a yem several hundred miles of railway will have been completed, connecting with steal rails this section of country with the far West, and passengers and freight conveyed in rapid transit, mak ing glad the hearts of thousands of people. Long may each member of the ‘‘Cole Syndicate” live to reap an abundant reward from the products of this great enterprise. Ripples Around the Springs. by f. s. ii. Some wheat cutting is going on. Our town can now boast of two bar ber shops. He are in need of warm weather right now. Heavy overcoats have been worn during the last few days. Anew livery stable is now Ireing erected at Indian Springs. Miss Kat <• Lyone, the Belle of Jack son. has been in our midst. Mr. E. P. N >t oil, near our town has a field of oats.- .• ieet high. Mrs’ E. E. Pound, of our town is on a visit to friends and lelutives in Ea toutou. The water tank with -team fixtures for Indian Springs depot lias been com pleted. It is rumored that the Central R. R. will build a road fiom Bartlesville to this point. Mr M. L. Duke a i Mrs. Martha. Duke, ofyour town, was at the Springs on Wednesday last. Our doctors have vaccinated nearly every body in town and a great many iii the country. Miss Dora Jossey, one of Griffin’s eauties, was in town last Sunday, guest of Miss Laura Daughtry. Our young friend, Willis Morris for inerly a citizen of Indian Springs is here on a visit for a few days. Ye local now gets “tight” on Dr. Bryans and Whitehead’s Hot Mineral water—free of charge. It is a bully good thing. Col. Wilburn Blackburn, of the Mad ison Madisonian and Mr. Chaffer, of Madison, are at the Mclntosh House for a short time'. Master R. L. [Bunks] Allen guys he escorted the prettiest of our girls to the “candy-snaching.” “Bunks” is a “red hot boy - you bet! Mrs. Lindsey, of Atlanta, is at the Springs, guest of the Elder House. She was in charge of the Wilson House nt the time ofits destruction by fire Mayor W. C. Anderson and lady, ofEatonton, and Col. Thomas J. Bur. ney, of the Macon Telegraph and Mes senger, are guests of the Varner House. The young men of our town gave a candy-pull-ing at the residence of Mr. N. 0. Alexander on Tuesday night last. A goodly, number were present and a fine time with them. Mrs. Daughtry, has had another room added to her already beautiful residence. Her building is also hav ing several extra coats of paint which adds much to its present apperence. Bob Lawson left town on last Tues day for Monroecounty, and took with him about $ pound of candy Why Bob took the candy, we can only imagine, but we think he knew what he was af ter. Lewis Dorsey, our polite and first class barber has in connection with bis shop a reading room, when his custo mers can pass the hours pleasantly away. He says if you don’t believe this come down and see for yourself, and get a shave free of charge. It ARM i. tIiWIN, A Kuilrontl Contractor on tlie 11. & It Ex , Kwindles tlie people or this sec ti'.in ami “ skipps.” The man whose name heads this ar ticle is famillier to the people of this section. He contracted and graded a section on the M. & B. Extension at this place. We made the acquaintence of Mr. Irwin, as did many others, on his arrival, and lie succeed in gaining the confidence of those who knew him and lie, apparently, was a first-class gentleman, lie brought with him a number of mules, wagons and iniplc ments, and a gang of the most demor alizing set of negroes, and white men with probably one exception, that it has been our lot to see outside of the chaingang, and the same opinion has been freely expressed by our citizens. Mr. Irwin is the son-in-law of a Mr. Long, of Nashville, Tenn., and who we learn is the real sub contractor for this work ; and he is said to he wealty ; if this be true, and don’t pay these peo ple their hard earnings, he is no better than bis son-in-law. When the final estimate was made on Invin’s work, he owed a number of hands, we learn, from 5 to 40 dollars each ; among them are two small hoys, children of a help less widow woman of this place, who served him faithful and done him good work, to say nothing of a large num ber of poor colored people and some whites, who are dependent upon their daily labor for the support of their fam ilies. His creditors waited and watch ed eagerly and hopefully for the day set apart, when he promised to return and pay that which he justly owed them ; and they waited in confidence, until Mr. Wm. Mullet, whom Irwin owed over SBOO. for supplies and bor rowed money, was put upon his guard by a telegram from Condon & Cos., which signified that Irwin contempla ted swindling his creditors ; then it was the hopes of these laborers were blasted. Mr. JJal let took a mortgage on Irwin’s property and had in posession fiv mules which Irwin left as he thought suffici ent confirmation of his promise that he would act in good faith. Mallet went to Atlanta to look after his in terest, and found Irwin who still (null ifies ted a disposition to do right. Con don A Cos., refused to settle until Mal let arrived, when Irwin stated to them that lie had amply secured Mallet, and lie, Irwin, telegraphed Mallet to so inform Condon & Cos., that he might draw bis money. On 3/iillets arrival he was met by Irwin who played the hypocrite so successful, that Mallet told Condon & Cos., to pay Irwin and they would then have a settlement. After Irwin received his money he ! put iifTsettleing with Mallet saying he had sent. Gentry to Jackson with mon ey to pay the hands &c., Arr Mallet pressed him pretty close until finally Irwin told him tlm! one or two of the hoys bar! got li is money and gonehome with it. Irwin appeared quite indig nant at Mullet's going to Atlanta after liitn, and charged around a little when Mallet told him that he had his affects, and may never pay him and said “I am not the one to he huldozed by you.” Irwin left for Nashville ; and being guilty of a penal offence, in moving mortgaged property, Mallet swore out a warrant for his arrest, obtained a requisition from theGovernorandstar ted the Sheriff of Spalding couqty in close pursuit, who arrived at Nashville and found Mr. Irwin and his crowd at home. The Sheriff said Irwin was somewhat dumfounded when the offi cer of that county arrested him; and be came very much enraged and after cursing and vilifying the people here, from tvltome he had stolen their meat and bread or its equivolenl, declared that he would not be brought hack to Georgia. The Georgia Sheriff after lis tening patiently, told him candidly and quietly, that he ir.ent business, and lhathe could do one or two things— settle amount due Mr. Jl/nllet or he carried hack peacibly, if not, by force. Irwin “hauled in his horns” and settled by paying the Sheriff $440, and the 5 mules Jir. il/allet already held. It is estimated that Irwin owes the people of this section considerably over SIOOO. We learn Condon & Cos. said there was S4OOO, profits in Irwins contra t at this place. Several parties we learn, have sworn vengeance against Irwin, and if they ever come up with him and \ he refuses to pay them, they will cer tainly take his life. A shooting match for a mutton last Saturday, afforded some amusement for those interested in sporting. Eight chances were taken, two shots each, with doublebarrel shotguns. A cross was used as a target, forty yards with out rest, the nearest shot to the center taking first choice and so on for the 2d, 13d and 4th choice. Mann, McKib ben, Jim Land, Wright and Fred Hill were the contestants. Geo. Mann hav three chances (six shots) won the whole sheep. It was close between McKibben and Mann, the latter having won third and 4th choice by the slight* est difference. We would suggest that at the next match a circle be used as a target, and the man putting the great est number of shot in a given circle nearest the center, be the t-.st, thus showing the patter of the guns used. Three Parker guns were used last Sa. tttrday, and the four best shots came within an inch circle. Ocar Wilde has actually been invited to lecture in Savannah. Something is the matter with the city down by the sea. The oat crop of Dodge coauty is good. Butts county Ga., May 22d. EniTott Jackson N i-.ws : I have heard some hints, and intimations of “worthy parties’’ #hat would have an ti.ee to grind in the ensuing fall elections. Along with other names, was that of Professor E. E. Pound. Nor would I utter a word to deteriorate, lassen, or detract from the chances, claims, or qualifications of any of Butts aspirants, yet, I would say that the voters of Butts county could’nt make a better selec tion, nor honor “themselvesas well as the position’’ higher—than by sending the Professor to tho Georgia Legisla ture. And I assert that if he will ac cept the call, it will he seen that he lias as many and as ardent supporters as any man in Butts county. “Set him lip again, if you please.” Voter. The Kobbm Cave. Discovery of the Haunt of tlie JameN Brothers Recovery of Valua ble Plunder. The Galhitan Tennessean gives eujivncy to a story about, the discov ery cl a cave on the farm of Col. Jam s Alexander, on the Tviun ssi c bound try tine, which had tor yea s pas' been the haunt of the Janie’s loot lnrs. The farm upon which llu* cave was sit tinted rented by a man giving hi-'name as I J. Ijow ard who was scarcely ever at li me, End ihe only me to tie s eu about the house w as an old colon and woman and hi r husband, who appeared lomtnage the farm.and a few head of cattle that grazed in the pasture field The cave is located in a desolated spot upon ihetarin and is iiiT>umded by dense undergrowth and the en trance to it is a mere sink li 1--, into which the water from the earth’s sur face Hows, forming in the cave a hoa ui it ill stream ol water, as ch ar as a crystal. The entrance, howevor, is large enough to admit the passage ol a man on horseback, and the bandits horses were trequi u ly corraled ill re for days and nights together, while their masters rolled them e’ves up in tli“ir blankets, and enjoyed such sweet and refreshing sleep as only a si use of perfect security could give tli em The farm was occupied by II >ward until the day the killing of 7esse James was reported, when the nceu pints disappeared, carrying away the household goods. The ow ner of the larrn soon after received a letter sign ed Frank James, alias F J. Ilowqrd stating that he ha l vacated the prom, ises forever, adding “visit the cave on your farm and you will find some thing o interest you I sha i avenge fi r- and itli of my brother or die in 'he ait in of ” | Tin- r-ecipt if il l-* I tier greatly astonished C'd Ah x n lt-r, ?'•• call ed iih ill him a select number of his friends to whom he rend the and ru men!,inn-t who were ns equally aston ished. Keeping the matter a secret, they left the same evening for a visit to the cave, and entering tt e same with torches, a strange, weird sight met their view. First the skeletons of four horses, evidently left there by the robbers on their last raid, as they still emit an unpleasant odor. Blan kets and mattresses were strewn about promiscuously together with cooking utensils and a I w pieces of lnrn'ture. This portion of the cave is perfectly dry and afforded a com" lortable abode for the bandits. In a niche in one of the chambers was found a halt bushel measure, such ns is used by burner* and in it was f >uud a miscellaneous assortment. of valua hies, evidently placed there and for gotten by the robbers Among the assortment were four diamond rings two diamond neckla ces, nine diamond pins (supposeU to he diatnomds,) 30 gold watches, 10 plain cold rings, 12 silver watches and many other articles too numer ous to mill ion ; all of which are now mcki and up iu the vault ot the Summer Deposit, hank, in Gji latan, for iiidt-h --lifioition.

Mr. Fred Horton, of Indian Springs slipped in on ns yesterday. Corn is selling in oawkinsvillcat fram $1.12 to sl.lO per hushed. The Mock aw. Locust Grove, May 22d, 1882. Mr. Editor : The Stock law is a subject of much importance to the people ol Georgia ; it is a subject that demands sole r. quii-t, intelligent 'hon dit, !rom all its inhabitants especially ii voting pop u'ation. ll is a aw in the opinion o| the writer that bool I have been passed long ago. Our northern brethren have been reaping its belies fi s for ye re, and it has pa.-s< and in many ; comities in the State of T< xas, and Giorgia I am happy to eny, is gaining ground in passing this most imp r tatil law. There are, however, some delinquent counties who aio yet in the majority ; it is to be hoped they may see their error and vote lor the slock 'nw in tie next election. In an early day and when our country .vas partially settled, when the creeks and branches, abounded with eane, when the grass grew luxuriantly all over the woods, then it was, that the pioneer settlers mutually agreed to tenee in their corn patcln s in onh r that they might have the cane on the cieeks and the grass in the woods for tin ir cattle. Our country has In come so densely populated now that it is by for the most important to fence up the stock. The stock law is not a law dial will make one man rich and another man poor ; it proves a bless ing to all, the poor as well as the rich are | roporttonatelly Innefited by it. The poor men it seems have been afraid ol the slock law, some of them are a I raid they will not get to split so many rails, others are afraid they will have to pay something for pas tur ngaeow. The Stati of Georgia, Alabama, and all the States that have no stock law, pay their laborers less wages than those States where the stock law has been enforced. In Ohio, Pensylvan a, New York, and all these States where the stock law has been in force, are paying lh> ir la borers from 20 to 25 dollais per •■iontli w hile those States that havo had no stock law are hardy able to pay to their laborers 10 dollars per in- nth. Tne reason why Georgia can’t pay any heller wages toi labor is because the expense of fencing is keeping the land Holders poor; they are not able, some < f them, to pay anything tor labor. While this sub ject was being agitated here one of our citizens w rote to the editor of the New Yoik Sun wanting to know of him how the people liked the law np there, his answer was they would think of nothing else; he told him the people ol N. Y, would n > mole ahow slock to run at large on their neighbors land than they would al low their children to steal tlu-ir neigh hots Iruit. They consider the law a good moral one. And it does seem to be a good moral law. It and es not prevent any man from having all the Luce he wunts, lie can fence up as much land as he pleases. A man who lias money and w ants to spend it in budding fences and cross f -nces on Ids or her farm, they are at liberty to do so. There arr a good many peo ple who tire not really able, have not t' i- money ; their fences have become nut n anil must tie ieplcnislii-d with new ones unless li mined I >y lin stock law. To those men of the State of Georgia who are yet in favor of keeping up lenues, I will say, the dis position seems to lie a very selfish one ; they remind me of the “dog in the manger” that would not eat the hay nor would lie let the poor ox eat it. Tln-y will not avail t hemselvea ol the stock law, nor will they allow the poor widow woman who has land ad is iot able to keep up her fences the benefit of the law, and 1 will add the wnlower man. It is a good rule in voting to vote for a law that will do the greatest good to the greatest number of people, and lain satisfied the stock law does that very thing. Wo have a glass lice, called the Bermuda, that might beadvamageou l\ used as a pasturing grass, that two lias been dreaded by a good many as well as the stock low, on account of the tenacity with wnidi it clings to the earth, yet it is only a question of ime w hen we shall seethe Bermuda growing as pasture grass on eveiy man’s lat m, it never comes from tho seed consequent ly is not apt to be scattered every where flu-re is a gi iss that n Hoinbb s tin- Bermuda very much and is by some mistalc n tor the Bermuda, yet the genuine Bermuda has no seed. There never was no probably never it tie a hitv that lias been bft to the Vox Popn’i but what has met with some <>p osi lion, yet I do t bink that it ev-r there was a law t at. ought to ince the general approbation of the people itis the -tuck law I do think, with a g ncial slock law in Georgia and '.he advantage!* lo he had fr in >ur new railroad, the people miy reasonably iok Iv>r In i' f i imea. When e ich a ul every enmity shall liavi driver the angry curs from the mangers, u heo by an nverw l-elinning majority they shall hav hei-u forced to heat a hasty etrest, then he peo p e will have accorup islied a victory. The writer is ot opinion that ev iry patriotic mm ought to lend a helping hand to those counties who are yet siriigling for the law, 1 think we mi gin use some of the language ot the poet when In say* : y,- fi i-ble saints fresh coinage take iln- ch-iids u- so muon bread. \ bi wi'li no r jy bid sha I break mhlis.-in on your head , Nones.
