JUMPED INTO A WElL To Save the Life of His Child Across the Street. J. II. Lee, of Concord, had a jump of forty feet into eight feet of water on Tuesday, and under a misappre hension, and escaped unscathed ex copt petting his feet wet. His little child had been playing at the well on the back porch, contrary to its mothers instructions, when a loud plunge was heard and the child, like the one that stood on the burn ing deck, oh, where was it? The fact is that it was across the street at a neighbors, having first set the bucket going down into the well. The mother screamed as the noise was heard, and told the father that the child had fallen into the well. Without an instant’s hesitation lie jumped in. lie dived several! times to the bottom and searched around, but could find no child, and finnally concluding that it was a false alarm was dragged up. I pon being asked if be didn’t think he might have killed the child by jumping upon it. Mr. Lee replied that there was no chance of it living if it remained in there a minuet, and he was willing to take the other chances. That cldld to be of its father. A FLORIDA NEWSPAPER FIGHT. Which the Dapper Little Fellow Comes Out on Top. Editor John. T. Graves, of ti»e Tribune, recently a prominent journalists, writes as follows the recent newspaper con¬ in Florida: The consolidation of the two morn uig dailies of Jacksonville closes one the longest aniFfiercest newspaper fights on record, and transfers from Florida to a larger sphere of action one of the brainiest a»d most remark able journalists in the country. Nearly seven years ago a dapper little fellow, with a pale scholarly face, resolute ioutb, quick, energet ic move.cent . and plenty of confi¬ dence ii. .;im eif, landed in Jackson rille with the announced intention of establishing a daily newspaper. This was Cbas. H. Jones, and he had just emerged from a career of literary work with the Appleton’s, in New York—a regular “literary fellow,’’ who had not even cut his eye teeth in journalism. But he wet ’ rk with a will, culture and an individuality that told from the very start. With in a ye»r his dominant personality had established him and his paper, Times, as subjects of discussion, averse than favorable, all over state. ]’• m that day to this, he been th - *st marked man in mm > ked of, more criti¬ belter hated, and by a few followed than any one man in state. lie made a thousand mis in policy and in action. He errors that would have a weaker man beyond rederup lie atognized the predominant of the state with apparent and salied into the peo right and left, until he had mus a host of foes, that waged war him. Nothing but the trained in and the indomitable intellelecu courage cf tbe man saved him and paper from annihilation. He ever at his best in a fighl, and seemed to have the faintest of being whipped: at times it .seemed that every force in the state was ar¬ m active persona! opposition to him, be fought on as dauntlessly, saucily, and doggedly, as if he had the commonwealth behind him. No man anywhere was ever opposed bitterly and persistently, and more justly, than Mr. Jones by the ruling element of the state iu which he lived. By sheer fqrce of mind and courage he held is own, gathered strength from every defeat. Lacking in physical courage he was simply unconquerable in spirit and inexhaustible in resource, and although paper after paper was started to down him, and combina¬ tion after combination formed to crush him, he managed somehow to come out of every encounter smiling, confident, and stronger than ever. He was not always in the right, but he was always a pjwer in a fight, couldn’t be kept down. The News*Herald was tho strong and most elaborate effort ever to crush him. Both papers backed by abundant capital, tbe fight between them, often bitter, angry, and fiercely per might have been prolonged for but for the consolidation noted our dispatches. Even in the con Jones comes out on top in the discontinuance of the and the perpeiuilion the name and influence of his own paper, the Times-Union, Mr Jones himself, goes to St. to ;ut ume the editorship of tbe which sorely needs bis and energy. He is built for work, and the Itepubli is sure to take an impetus from day of Lis arrival in Si. Louis.

When the two Central passenger trains met here at four o’clock yes terday afternooD, they brought to gether two loving hearts that beat as one and were soon made one in law if not in fact. Miss Alvine Valentine Wisebery, a handsome young Jewish maiden of Atlanta, got off the down train under the protecting wing of W. E. H- Searcy, and Bon 13. Lyon, tbe nine teen year old sbn of T. B. Lyon, of Barucsville, helped himself off the up train and met the young lady in the waiting room. Together they soon found their way to the resi dence of Rev. S. C, McDaniel, while Arch Nall, who had enabled the young lady to dodge her parents by driving her in a carriage out to East Point, proceeded to tbe Ordinary’s office to get a license, after which the eloping couple was soon married. The groom is a musician of consid erable talent, who compensates for the monotony of working for Mad dox, Rucker & Co , in Atlanta daring the winter, by playing at summer resorts during the summer. His youug wife is also possessed of con siderable musical ability and it was this congenial tasto that threw them together and finally resulted in their union yesterday. It is a genuine love match, and the News hopes it may be a happy one. It was their intention last night to go for a few days to Mr. Lyon’s grandfather’s place, John Wesley Reid, in Pike County.
