Like all others who leave Carroll coun ty, he wishes to get back and thinks it the best county after all. The third number of the Car- tersville Courant by Dr. and Mrs. W H Felton, lias been received. Of course it goes without saying, that the Courant is well edited, and we may add that typographi cally, it is a model journal. We welcome the Courant to Georgia journalism and predict for it a bril liant and successful future. We published last week an item from the Villa Rica correspon dence of the Atlanta Constitution, in reference to the sudden leaving of that place of Mr. John E. Con ner. From the following special to the Constitution dated the 20th inst, it appears that Mr. C. has turned up all right: Mr..“John E Conner has returned, and yester day a to p. m., he and Miss Fannie Floyd were united in the holy bonds of matrimony at the resi dence of the bride’s father, Judge John S.

We think we can safely say for the people on this end of the line that they would gladly welcome such a road and do all they can to assist in bnilding it. A straight-up little man with frank face and clear eyes, stood in the governor’s office the other day and received from the governor’s hand two rewards for the capture of Smith, the slayer of Bonner Bar ker. This was Jim Hewitt, the famous sheriff of Carroll county. “John Smith” said a friend of Hewitt’s for he’s too modest to talk about it himself;” is a very desperate ihmj. He had shot old man Barker, and cut Bonner Bar ker’s throat, long:before the final act in the tragedy. This you re member well. He shot Bonner down in*the presence of his young wife, who attempted to throw her self between the slayer and her husband. It was thought Smith would'never be arrested. He had fled the country and was near the Alabama line in the midst of his relatives. But Jim was on his track. For eighteen days the hunt went on. At last Jim located him. He studied out the paths of the fugitive through the woods and from Thurs day morning until Saturday night, he lay in wait for him. On Satur day night Jim was hid in the woods by a lonely path which he knew Smith would cross. About midnight he heard the murderer coming, walking cautiously over the frozen ground. Jim kicked off his rubbers, dropped his overcoat, drew his pis tol, and as Smith’s form loomed be fore him, the little man rose and said:‘Smith you must come with me.’ It was a big chance to take but Smith knew his man and submit ted without a word. Laying his hand on his collar, Jim led the slayer out of the heart of night to prison.—Hen ry Grady in Atlanta Constitution.

One week ago my first steps were made on Carrollton soil, after a rather tiresome journey from Cum ming. My first night here was spent at Dr. New’s, where I re ceived a kindly greeting and enjoy ed unlimited hospitality.
