OItITUAKY.
Mattie E. Williamson was bom in
Jackson comity, Ga., August 15th, 1847,
and died at the residence of her father,
Mr. J. P. Williamson, Sr., in the town of
Jefferson, October 21st, ISBI. Fifteen
years before her death she professed re
ligion and joined the M. E. Church, South.
Iler conversion was of the nature that
manifests itself in the change of the en
joyments of life. For ten years her life
was full of sunshine and Christian cheer
fulness; the church, prayer-meeting and
Sunday-school had sweet attractions for
her, and in them she was found occupjdng
her place regularly during this period of
time. The remaining five years of her
Christian life was that of privation and
suffering, she seldom ever being able to
attend any of the assemblies at the church.
The afflicting hand was laid heavily upon
her robust frame, arid soon reduced it to
feebleness and constant suffering. She
seemed not to question the wisdom of God
in her alHiction, but clung to her Saviour
by faith, and tried to manifest her love for
llim by keeping His commandments. Her
conflicts with the wicked one were often
severe and protracted, but the last few
months of her life victory seemed to abide
with her; Christian patience and fortitude
seemed to possess her soul, mind and
heart. Her sun went down in a clear sky,
and sent back his mellow, golden beams
on death's chilly waves, to gladden the
hearts of Christian friends and loved ones,
and make them feel that it is sweet for a
Christian to pass through them. She was
not afraid to die ; yea, was more afraid to
live. Life's journey ended in peace, the
world grew dark to her mortal vision,
heaven’s portals to her immortal gaze
grew bright, the mortal load with life’s
cares and toils she let fall, and entered
freely, fully into joy ; that joy thatawaits
all the finally faithful of Hod's children.
Christ, and a mother gone before, with
many of the redeemed," no doubt, greeted
her on the other shore, while we are here
left weeping for a little time longer.

Ilawkinsville Dispatch: “Good fat
frying size chickens are worth from
twenty-five to thirty cents in the
Ilawkinsville market, and none arc
offered for sale. Eggs are almost too
scarce to keep up with prices. We
heard a man say that Ilawkinsville

Wniton News: “ Henry Stegall, who
has been confined in jail in Atlanta for
twelve months, makes it pay him well.
He went in jail without a cent, and
since he has been there ho has made
and paid his lawj’crs $lO0 —besides
having plenty to buy any little things
he may need. Turning Jack from the
bottom of the deck is the secret of his
success.”
The \V r aynesboro Herald says a
negro man wont to the office of Judge
F. M. Berrien, the other day, and
made the following statement: *' That
a little over two years ago he escaped
from the Old Town convict camp, in
Jefferson county, where lie had been
detained five months without ever
having been tried or sentenced. He
says that he was workingon the planta
tion of T. B. Branch, Esq., in Burke
county, where he was beaten and shot
by Mr. Charles Moxley, the overseer,
who then took him to Old Town and
put him into the penitentiary gang,
where lie served the time above men
tioned.” The complainant's object
was to ascertain whether he could
obtain any redress.
The Walton County Vidette thus
relates how a cottou thief got himself
cleverly trapped : “ For some wocks
pastMr. Joe Jennings has been missing
seed cotton from his gin house, and
the door being securely locked, its
disappearance seemed mysterious. Ho
finally concluded that ingress was
effected through the cotton box to his
press, which was arranged just under
the condenser. With this view, he
sot the follow block on triggers and
went his way. While he and family
were at supper, he heard the distressed
cries of a man in the direction of the
gin house. Repairing to the scone of
the uproar, he found his cotton thief
securely fastened in the box, the follow
block on top of him, and he begging
for help. He wa9 promptly bagged,
and now awaits Judge Erwin's tender
mercies. The thief is a white man
who formerly stood well in the com
munity.”
Hartwell Sun: “ Hurrah for Hart
couut}'. On 73 Shockley apple trees
Win. A. Hilliard made a thousand
bushels of apples this year. He has
300 gallons of cider stored in his cel
lar that will keep a year, 400 bushels
of beautiful apples, and fattened his
hogs on apples. He planted on the
23th of April one bushel of improved
cotton seed which did not come up
until June, and not more than half a
stand then, and made 2,500 pounds of
seed cotton. He has gathered one
thousand pounds to the acre, and has
not yet finished picking. He used one
ton of Atlantic Phosphate and made
three bales more of cotton this than
last year off of the same land, by use
of another fertilizer. This is truly a
good showing for the Atlantic, as he
had to pay more for the fertilizer used
last j’ear, and shows a net increase in
prefit of about one hundred and fifty
dollars. Mr. Hilliard makes a bale of
cotton to the acre on land that some
years ago would hardly sprout peas.
Any good, industrious farmer can get
rich in Hart.”
The Oglethorpe Echo says: On
Monday night last one of the most
horrible murders in the annals of crime
was committed in Goose Pond District,
in the quiet and law-abiding county
of Oglethorpe. It appears that there
lived in that section two families,
named Dunson and Kidd, between
whom there was no good feeling. On
Monday evening before the murder
Dunson went to Kidd's house, and
used some very insulting language in
the presence of the family, when harsh
words passed between the two men.
During tins quarrel Mrs. Kidd left.
The next morning Kidd’s house was
discovered burned to the ground, and
the charred body of a human being
was found in the ashes which at first
was thought to be the remains of Kidd,
but upon examination of the corpse it
was identified, from certain papers, to
be the remains of Dunson. There was
a deep gash on the lower jaw, appar
ently donfe with an axe, which shows
that the man was first murdered, and
then the house burned to conceal the
crime. Evidence points to Kidd as the
murderer, who could not be found. A
coroner’s inquest was held over the re
mains on Tuesday amt a verdict ii a
conlance with the above fact3 ren
dered.

The Georgia Branch Extension.
We learn that the surveying squad
who are engaged in selecting a route
for the Georgia branch to come into
the city have run two or three lines
from which they will make a choice.
One contemplates going back to a
point near I)r. McCleskcy's and com
ing across the head of Trail Crock,
striking the river above the city.
Another route, we hear, is to cross
the river below the Athens Factory
dam and come in on the South side
ot the city. This we arc informed is
the moat desirable route, but there may
be difficulty in getting the right of
way. The surveyors arc now engaged
on a line which comes down back of
the foundry and is to cross the river
near that point, though we don’t under
stand how the road can come from its
elevation at the depot to a point so
low, in the distance of less than half
a mile. The surveyors understand
their business however, and we shall
be satisfied when we know that the
cars are running into the city. We
have just learned that this latter route
will likely be adopted as it is the
cheapest. A long, high trestle will
have to be built to reach the citj r . It
will be about half a mile long.—

Cured of the Western Fever.
Here is what a former citizen of
Walton county says, in a card publish
ed in the Walton News, upon his
return from his Western emigration
tour, and he did not get no farther
than Louisiana:
“ I am at home once more, in my
dear old county, where 1 expect to
live and die. I write this hoping to
turn any man who may think of going
to Louisiana. I was persuaded to
sell my homo in Walton a year ago
and go to Louisiana. I come back
now homeless— a wiser man. If any
body wants to go there I beg you to
come to see me, and I will give you a
fair description of the place. Not
one of the old Walton people is doing
anything; all of them would come
back if they could. If there is a hell
on earth, Louisiana is the place. If
you are in a bad fix here, you will be
worse off there. Stay here and make
tho be9t you can of life, is my adricc.
My friends in Walton sent me money
to bring my family back. I thank
you all for your kindness. God may
rule the world, but he has turned
Louisiana over to the devil.
