I feel justifiable iu saying fifty residence*, offices, store house-, etc., have g*me up ami are now under course of structure. Seven or eight thousand bales cl'cot¬ ton will bv shipped from that point this year, which is two thousand at least more than was handled there last season. Dublin needs a new hotel building, a cotton cotupres*, a bank, another railroad, an iron bridge over the river, more money and less whis¬ key. I saw more diuuk men in Dub¬ lin and heard more profanity than in all the prohibition towns I have work cd|iu the State.

Whenthi# popular drummer reached Wrights ville last Wednesday, lie was handed a telegram from Macon. Had a cocked revolver been brought to bear on iris heart, marks of emotion could not have shown plainer ou his face. The message was addressed to him at Wrightsvillc, in care of A. T.

Once or more lie came near lottiug loose from nervousness, and at no time attempted to learu its contents. That it was concerning his mother he had no doubt, and seemed In his imagination to sec (lie words— “Your mother is dead come at once.” As he tore the end of the envelope and removed the slip of yellow paper his checks became pater, and the muscles of bis lips were sceu to move.

Here is a splendid grove of locust and poplar trees, or two ot them—one to the right and the other to the left of the walk from the road tothe house, which sets a little back from the road. To the left is a large fountain, in the centre of a small lake, surrounded by an iron fence; on this little lake or pond, are a number of geese and man¬ darin din k*. Tiiev are said to he from Japan.

These apple trees, of all varieties, are prolific bear¬ ers, and the same is true of the pears, peaches, plums and cherries. In the orchard opposite the water tank is a fi-h oond some 25 or 30 feet in diameter. In it are trout, great speckled fellows, very thick and very shy. llocky con* have been built for them in I he bottom ami centre of the basin, amt hence they hide—seeking shade from the rays of the hot sum¬ mer sun, and also from the silent beams of the silvery moan. This place and its surroundings causes the trav¬ eler not only to rejoice over the scene which here greets his gaze, but seems to remind him of “God's country”— cithv r in the far east or at this point in the nearer west. The old emigrant road leading to northern California and southern Or egon runs near this s at'on, and w inds around the base of Eugene Mountain, and near a low butt *, resembling a hay stack, which can be seen in the distance across the alkali flats, The Humboldt House is the place of resort for tourists who desire to visit the sulphur mine*, Star Peak, the mining district* in Hie Humboldt range, Eugene Mountain, and the An¬ telope range. The latter is a low range on our right, beginning as we leave this station.

The deposit*, as they lie in the hills, arc found from twenty to one hundred feet thick. They arc covered with ashes and mixed with extraneous matter.

A low knock at the jury door, the lock burst in, and a dozen smiling fel¬ lows asked the verdict. The foreman promptly answered, “Not guilty.” >Vi:h volleyed oaths and ominous laying of hand* on pistol butts, the boys slammed the door with, “You'll have to do better than that!” In half an hour the advocate gcntlv opened the door again aud asked : “Your opinion, gotiHcinen ?” “Guilty.” “Correct.
