I'd* I DAY, Aovoiailcr S., Oconee county wants the stock law. It, is said that the jury in the Gut teau case is cranky. Small pox is giving trouble in sev eral parts of the United States. Capt. Whit Anderson, of Atlanta, is dead. He was Chief of Police of that city for a number of years. Hartwell is enjoying the exercises of the Georgia Normal Music School. It commenced on the 15th inst., and v ill continue a month. Georgians arc of a forgiving dispo sition, but they cannot forget that Gen. Sherman led a victorious army t rough their sunny land. Now that the Exposition has proved to be a success as an exhibition, At lanta is making every exertion to make it prove a success financially. 1 resident Arthur is preparing his annual message to Congress with 1 is own bunds, so that none of itxvill leak out before it is delivered to Congress. The case against Guitteau has been made out, and all of the evidence of the prosecution is in. It is now in order for Guitteau to make his de fense. Uncle Pete is playing into the hand of the Southern Watchman in a man rer that keeps a perpetual smile upon the faces of the Watchman's managers. Put on your “specks” an I think a little. General Gordon, on last Friday, drove the first spike in the iron for the track of the Georgia Pacific, near At lanta. This road, when completed, will be of more than ordinary impor tance to Georgia. Arthur's problem in regard to the solid South is how to give the patron age to the Independents, in order to disrupt the Democratic party, and at the same time keep the Republicans in heart without a chance at the swill tub. Ed Cox, the Alston murderer, has immortalized himself. In the absence of one of the guards a trusty recently took a mule and made for the woods. Cox pursued him'for two days and captured the convict in Alabama and brought him and the mule safely back to camp. The Greenbackers sincerely trust that they will hold the balance of power in the organizing of the next House of Representatives. Their leaders sav that the Greenback mem hers will not affiliate with either the Democrats or Republicans—both are to be let severl}' alone. The Walton Neivs says that “ a Texas doctor has discovered that the bite of a bed-bug is a sure cure for rheumatism.” llro. Walker, if your information is true, there would be no such a disease as rheumatism in Georgia or no bed bugs. Which horn will you take ? When the Exposition is over, and Atlanta straightens herself up and lakes a look over the magnitude of the job that she has just brought to a suc cessful finish, she will find no one single factor that has contributed more to the success of the concern than her big daily. It has been persistent in season and out of season, and has never yet lagged in its exertions. ’Tis said that the maids of North Georgia are migrating to Utah to get husbands. We never did think that the Georgia girls would make good “ E phirihns w” wives. We had been led to believe that it was a hard matter to reconcile them to a whole husband, but we suppose we have been mistaken. Several years ago a charter was granted for a railroad from Gridin to Madison, via Monticello, and a con siderable amount of grading was done, but, from some cause, the enterprise languished and was about abandoned. Now the news reaches us that the lranehise for said road has been pur chased by the Cole syndicate and the road will be built at once. This is good news for Griffin and the country 7 through which the road will run. While wo understand the Gaines ville Southron's independentism on most subjects, yet we must confess e are at a loss to know bv what course of reasoning it can make up its mind to stomach Mahone. Wo eliminate altogether the local issues iu Virginia or his personal history, and have reference only to his course in National politics since his entrance into the Senate. ihe Athens Watchman tells of an affuii of honor that is impending be tween Mr. E. W. Rucker, of Athens, and lion. James M. Smith, of Ogle thorpe. The fact that the possibility of such an occurrence taking place has been made public is a sure indi cation that the differences between the gentlemen has either been settled or that the duel will not take place. The dead Garfield's religions belief is on deck now for discussion. We will state, for the benefit of those in tcrested, that Hie dead President has by tin* time, in all pi-obainiity. settled t.lie question conclu*i\ely and satis factorilv to ins mind. With him the decision of tne revisers of the New Testament is of hut small tnome t. Owing to the small amount of 5 cent nickel pieces in the Treasury, the Secretary has instructed the Director of the mint to cause sl7 540 in old copper cents. $lO4 018 in copper nickel cents, now in the Philadelphia mint, o be recoined into five cent nickel pieces, a .and instructions have already neon given to carry out the direction. It will he some weeks before the mint will be ready to commence the re-coin ige of the*e pieces, or to receive or ders lor five cent nickel coins from hanks and others. While they were conveying Guit tcau from the Court House to the jail, a young man rode up to the prison van and took a shot at Guitteau and rode off at a furious rate. This is the sec ond attempt that has been made upon Ins life since his imprisonment. The would-be assassin has been arrested, tuit no doubt thinks he wdl make an easy escape of it. owing to the preju dice that is against his would-be vic tim. It strikes us that, even if Guit teau is a mean, despicable wretch, any attempt upon his life should be pun ished with as much severity as in an\ ordinary instance. The Republican party propose to get around the repudiating proclivities of their Virginia allies by the decision of the Unite! States Supreme Court upon their relief measures. It may be possible that they have not consid ered the magnitude of the movement to which, in their greed for power, they have given their aid and sympa thy. for it is not probable that the United States Court will attempt to interfere with a sovereign State as to the disposition of its debts, and if it does it will run the repudiators from the Republican party. They can't get the money on tl.cir bonds and the power too. The Washington correspondent of the Savannah Morning News gives some stale information in reference to what Mr. Speer is doing in regard to appointments to tiie Federal offices in tins District. YYe believe that Mr. S,/eer himself makes no secret of the fact that iie has requested the Presi dent to withhold one particular ap pointment until lie could be heard in person upon the merits of the case. We can readily understand how he can consistently approach the Presi dent upon the subject without trading with him iu any respect, and can see no objection in his so doing, and will give Lnu the benefit ol the doubt as to the trading part. A Washington special says : "There is a lot of so called Southern Republi cans in this city who are on every occasion coining to the front to make themselves conspicuous in National politics. They are for the most part carpet-hag ex-members of Congress and ex Federal officials, who went to the South to get office and left that section as soon as the offices were taken away 7 from them. They are setting ready now to call on President Arthur and fire off a lot of speeches and resolutions at him. giving their views of what his Southern policy ought to be and why he should ap point a Southern man in his Cabinet. They have about as much right to speak for the South as they have for New York or Massachusetts.” The same parties who. a little more than two years ago, knocked Cole from his throne as king of the Nashville & Chattanooga railroad combination are again at work trying to upset his plans. This time they are working through the Memphis & Charleston railroad stock. Several years ago the Memphis & Charleston railroad was terribly run down, and the stock was not worth more than five cents on the dollar. At this juncture it was leased for twenty years to the East Tennes see, \ irginia & Georgia railroad, which road is the basis of the Cole system. The Memphis & Charleston was put in first-class order in every respect, and now forms an important part of the Cole system. Cole’s enemies have been buying up a majority of the stock of the road, and have elected a friendly President and Board of Di rectors, and they now propose to break the lease to the East Tennessee. Yir ginia & Georgia road, and thus de prive Cole of an important link in his combination. 11 is hardly to be sup posed that they will succeed, as no Court will be so ridiculous as to annul the lease and turn the road over to its stockholders, when they have, of tlieir own free will, leased it away. Humbugged Again. I saw so much said about the me rits of Hop Bitters, and my wife, who was always doctoring, and never well, teased me so urgently to get her some I concluded to be humbugged again ; and I am glad I did, for in les3 than two months use of the Bitters my wife was cured, and has remained so for eighteen months since. I like such humbugging.— 11. TANARUS., St. Paul.—Pio neer Press. It is solemnly stated that a man at Rome wanted to go-to Coup’s circus when it exhibited there, and didn't have the money. lie tried to borrow it, but failed. He then went to a mer chant and bought a dollar’s worth of coffee on credit, sold it for seventy-five cents cash, and was soon viewing the animals and the leapers with as much unconcern as the man who had to get a twenty dollar bill changed to pur* chase his ticket. Burned to Death. On last Friday niglit Mrs. Rebecca Cates, wife of Joshua Calcs, of tins county, was burned to death under very remarkable circumstances. She is about fifty years of age and it seems from the evidence taken at the inquest was in the habit of drinking liquor. On that niglit her husband went over to the residence of Mr. Ford leaving her at home. He returned at about one o'clock on Saturday morn*ng and found his wife lying in the yard with a’l her clothing burned off except a breakfast shawl about her neck. She had been intoxicated that evening. The evidence further shows that Samuel Goddard was staying all niglit at the house and was on ti e bed asleep when Cates got borne. He went to bed about 10 o'clock and there bad been no one there except Geo. W. Cates, her son, who was setting by the fire place with It s mother. Goddard knew nothing of the burning until old man Cates waked him up to bell) him get his wife in the house. He says that deceased and George were very drunk when be retired but that she was able to walk. How she came to be burned will always remain a matter of conjecture, as none of the witnesses seem to knmv liovv she caught. A. J. Balew testified that Geo. Cates came home about day. drunk, and stated that lie saw a woman get burnt up and that be put out the fire ; that lie never heard such screams in his life, that he pulled her out doors and extinguished the fire will) a bucket of water, but be was so drunk be did not know who the woman was. There is a mystery connected with this unfortunate affair. How a woman could burn up and her screams not awake a grown man in the house; or that her son should pu‘ out the flames that were consuming his mother and not know who it was, can only be ex plained upon the idea that all parties were dead diunk, and, from the evidence, that seemed to lie their con dilion.— Gwinnett Herald. Little Mary, daughter of Mr. T. E. Danbury, editor of the Rome Tribune , makes considerable money by raising white, blue and variegated colored rab bits, which she readily sells for $3 per pair. She now lias about fifty on hand, all of which Coup’s circus wanted the other day. but she preferred to sell them to Georgians lest the stock might be lost. courchTproceedings.
