M. C. JONES,
Publisher and Proprietor.
IiOUtsvir.T.K, Ga., February 17.—
Miss S. E. Ivey, the slayer of .1. C. Mc¬
Cauley, bas to-day in justice court,been
tried and committed for manslaughter.
She will doubtless give bond. Tbe pros¬
ecution was aigued in a forcible and
masterly manner by Attorney Colley,
and Messrs. Tutt and Gamble came for¬
ward in an able and eloquent defense.
The case is a very strong one, the law
vers, and indeed others, declaring that
they had never read or heard tell of an
other similar one. It is to bn hoped
tbe true merits of the cafe will be ar¬
il ed at when brought before the next
term of the superior court.
Mr. David Dicks >u, one of the fore.
most agriculturalists not only in Geor
gia hut in the South, died s ddenly at
his home in Hancock county, on the
inm ning of the 18th inst. He was over
seventy years of age at the time of Ins
denth, and was a. nan of , rare financial „ . .
ability, and had amassed an immense
fortune. We doubt f there is a man
in Georgia wtio has done more towards
advancing and developing the interests
of the state than had Mr. Dickson.
Owing to his practical business knowl¬
edge and line common sense his name
has been mentioned in connection with
the office of Governor. He never at,
any time, however, sought political
honors but always preferred to follow
his chosen vocation-that of farming.
He was one of Georgia’ marked figures,
and in his death she lias lost a useful,
vaiuahlo aud honored citizen.
The* nomination of Emory Speer for
Judge of the Southern District of Geor
gia was confirmed after a session of
nearly four hours by the Senate by only
one majority. Senator Colquit. oppos
ad tho confirmation in a long speech
and Senator Brown favored tho con Hr
ilia ion but for widen Speer’s nomina
tlon would not litve been confirmed.
Wliile we adinll|t!mt Mr. Speer,as Sen¬
ator Blown stated in his Speech, is a
young man of line ability, yet we think
Brown acted in bud faith towards tho
Democratic party. If he is the Demo¬
crat he claims to he, he could have veiy
consistently oppos. d the confirmation
of Speer and thus the matter might have
boon left open so that when Cleveland
goes into office some good Democrat
puiuted.

Since our last issue we have to
port two new cases of smallpox and
death* The new cases are a negro
man and a negro child, both of
had been exjHwed to the disease
ther of them, however, is
ill. There are several others who
lieen exposed and are expected to Ik*
tacked, but all are under strict
tine- No uew cases have developed
since Sund .y- Yesjerday a negro wo
man, named Hanuali Simomls, about
40 years old, who was one of tin* first
to take HinalllKix, died in the
tine Section, where she has been
fined since the first symtoms appeared.
Miss Reese, in the country, is stea
]y recovering and will soon In*
All of the other cases are doing
and it is hardly probable that any
er death will occur. Not a single case
has yet developed except upon
who have been exposed to it, and the
disease has not at any time even ap¬
proximated an epidemic.
Mayor Durham requests us to reiter¬
ate the statements of his recent pro
clatnation, to the effect that the disease
la under control, is strictly quarntined,
and that there is no danger whatever
in visiting the town for business or
other pur|Kises; and he pledges himself
should such dangers arise, that the
public shall lie promptly notified.
There is now no excitement hereon
the subject of s nail pox. \ ery few peo
pie have left the place on account of it,
mid some who did leave have returned.

Written iri memnrv of little Picrcie Bt
con, the only cliiltl of our he'oveil friends,
Mr. and Mr*. Bacon, of Raytown.
Oil ; give my darling back to me,
1 can not live alone.
Again, in smiles around my knee,
Let llome once more be home,
And tell me not the spring is near,
When flowers sweet shall blon n.
While one is nursed with tender ear
Must wither in the tomb.
The fairest blooms, the tiriglit sun— shine
But fill my heart with pain,
To know tne Joys tnat once were mine
Van never come again.
Unfold the dimple hand so soft,
Uriel use those dark brown eyes,
Make new the babe I kissed so oft
And iiirl him too arise.
| )( . ar that whisper, ‘‘come to me :
r calmes my aching breast,
Kar, far beyond death's dark, still sea
My darling is at rest.
It calls me to a home so fair,
Among the blessed above.
And Heaven blooms my Ilower there
With bright immortal love,
For the Democrat.

Mrs. Olenzo Hopkins, wife of T. L.
,j j kj atl<l daughter of E. C„ and
M died at her residence in
e<Mlllly . (;w) ^ H , Jai , ; U st 1885.
She was converted and joined the ap
test church in early life and lived a gen
time Christian until Hie day of her
death. Tin | beautiful life which lore
was hid with Christ in God is garnered
forever witli 11 im.
This humble and worthy Sister de¬
serves something more than a passing
notice of her death. Her de > tli fills us
with sorrow and we arc loth to give her
up but we sorrow not as those without
hope. Heaven is made richer and earth
poorer but the tie is stronger which
binds us to tbe “belter bind.” Ob;
bereaved husband, mother, father, sis
ter, brother, relatives and friends, do
not weep for she is at rest. Stic lias
crossed the River and gone to the laud
where the inhabitants shall no more
say, “I am sick.” She left an infant
baby who has the sympathy of a large
circle of friends and if it lives as she
lived it will meet her ir the “sweet by,
auu hv.”
Her life was one of beauty, simplici
ty and devotion and while we mourn
with sad hearts that we shall meet and
our loved ones no more on ea th, we
bow with meek submission to the will
of the great God who moves in myste
\ rious ways, Ilis glories to reveal.
| Our, home is filled with gloom "I and Z our
•»
look up through tears to tlie God of na¬
ture we would say Thv will he done not
ours. A host of loved ones welcomed
her on the other shore.
Farewell Olenzo, may we meet where
sufferings and trials are no more.
Seivant of God well done.
Rest trnm thy loved employ ;
The battle fought, the vicl ly won
Lnter thv Master’s joy.
