But after the mind has been fully

indispensable articles, the question
arises as to what kind of a machine
to buy.
It should be so simply construc
ted that the most inexperienced
can successfully operate it. The
other points mainly to be consider

able, are durability, rapidity, capac

regularity of motion, uniformity of

The Scientific American claims
that the catfish is the most prolific
and profitable of all fish for an arti
ficial pond, and we are inclined to
agree with the American. We
doubt very materially whether any
of the scale fish yrill flourish in such
ponds as are usually constructed for
propagating fish. The mud cat of
Middle and South Georgia, which
grows about a foot long, and is
withal a very fine fish, is. in our
opinion, the fish to succeed with in
ponds, and if we ever carry out one
of the hobbies of our life, namely,
to build a first-class fish pond, with
our present notions, we shall settle
it with mud cats.
Double Murder
In Randolph County, Alabama, in which
Wyatt Pate and William Little
field Are Both Killed.
We learn from Mr. B. A. Sharp,
who has just returned from Ran
dolph county, Alabama, of a shock
ing tragedy, which occurred at
Corn House creek, eight or ten
miles south of Wedowee, on Tues
day evening last. Mr. S. got the
particulars from a gentleman di
rectly from the scene of the diffi
culty.
According to this gentleman, at a
sale at William Woods, at which
Pate and Littlefield, were present,
they both being under the influence
of liquor, Pate, who had a pistol
flourished it around considerably,
finally shooting it off, whereupon
some of his friends took the pistol
from him. Some time afterwards,
Pate accused Littlefield of steal
ing his pistol. Some warm words
ensued, which resulted finally in
Littlefield knocking Pate down.—
In an hour or two afterwards, when
Pate had recovered from the knock-
eking down, he succeeded in get
ting hold of his pistol, aifd hunting
up Littefield, who was getting
ready to go home, he shut him
twice, when Littlefield not with
standing the wounds he had re
ceived, advanced upon Pate and
stabbed him in the neck, inflicting
a mortal wound, from which Pate
died instantly.
Immediately after this, a Mr.
Knight, step-father of Pate, shot
Littlefield twice, after which lie
shortly expired.
It had not been determined, at
the time Mr. Sharp’s informant left
the scene of action, whether Little
field’s death was caused by the last
or first shots he received, though
Knight had been arrested.
Littlefield, one of the parties in
the above terrible tragedy, once
lived in Carroll county, so we un
derstand, in the neighborhood of
Sand Hill.
The Atlanta Constitution gives an
account of a personal difficulty on
Tuesday night between Hon. G. J.
Wright, well known here, and R. N.
Ely,ex-attorney general, in which
Judge Wright struck Ely in the
face, when friends interfered and
the parties were separated. The
difficulty grew out of an old law
case at Albany.
The Villa Rica correspondent of
the Atlanta Constitution says that
Miss Jane Wick Stone, of New
York, is there looking after her
share in the Pine Mountain gold
mine and that she will probably
sell to the company, who propose
working it.

same disease.

Editor Free Press l—I see in
your paper of the 15th of February,
from Plow Boy, stating that Uncle
Toney Beck never had on a pair of
boots. His brother-in-law, Win.
Stewart, was born 3Iay 26tli, 1806,
and never had on but one pair, and
he and a pard went a sparking one
night, and sitting by the fire till bed
time, his boots drawed to his feet,
so that when he retired he could
not get them off. His pard waltzed
him heels up over the room like a
scouring mop, until both were ex
hausted, when the pard asked if
William had a handkerchief. He
replied yes, and his pard told him
he had one also, so they took the
handkerchiefs and wrapped up both
feet and w ent to bed. Next morn
ing, bright and early, they put out
for home, and I need not say that
knives w r ere sharpened for the rip
ping and skinning of boots off of the
blstered feet. The old gent has told
me frequently since that that case
cured him of the boot business.
