A Muk«t for Manuscripts.
A clear and useful business has been
begun la New York. It does for authors
What a dry goods shop does for shoppers
and of the tho producer manufacturers, tho brings the goods
to convenient notice
of the consumer “The Authors' Ex
uange" undertakes to r<«d, register and
Carefully catalogue then all manuscripts lists sent
to it. It presents of their
ware* to pul uhlishers, from which they can
■meet need of of at certain tin heir material pleasure, or a publisher hem in
cert can come to t
look over the stock in trade. The
editor of one of the magazines complains
that he has sent to him every year over
MX thousand manuscripts, of which he
can use about ono hundred, and the
Anthers' Exchange proposes to lessen
> burden of dealing vrlth all
I matter. On the other hand, authors
■ greatly their from ignorance of the best
markets for wares, and that ignor¬
ance Is, In many rases, tho cause of fall-
ttre and discouragement. The exchange
undertakes to relieve tho author of tho
labor of disposing of his wares, and at
las* introduces an element of order in tho
Confused business of literature. If a pub¬
lisher wants matter in tho future ho goes
*o the shop where it is'kept, and buys or
orders it. The author simply manufact¬
them ures certain to the retail literary dealer wares, to bo and sold consigns to the
beet and most available customer. It is
a wonder no one over thought of doing it
More, and both author and publisher
will hall the idea with delight.—The
Argonaut.

KILLS JOHN WILSON AT THE
SECOND SHOT.
Tragedy Result* From the Old Feud
While Trying to Settle the
Land Line at Erin.
T. J. Connell, of West Pike, arriv
iu .the city yesterday afternoon
an order for a coffin for
Wilson, who had been killed by
W. Sullivan.
Mr. Connell was on the ground at
time of killing, although being
at the moment was not ex
an eye witness, ami from him
get the following particulars:
C. R. Wilson and bis sons, John
Clark, and J. VV. Sullivan and
Sullivan had been engaged
Monday in endeavoring to set
tbo old land lino between their
about which there bad
several years been contention, lit
of d fTorontkiuds and a great
of hard feeling between the par
On yesterday they came togoth
again for tho same purpose, a num
of the loading citizons of the com
being present. The spot was
quarter or half a mile from Sulli
mill, or Erin. Some words
between the parties as to the
location of tho land line, rising
a bitter dispute, when four shots
fired almost instantly. John
fell to tho ground with a bill
wound in bis forehead and a
6calp wound, while J-
Sullivan stood six or eight feet
with the smoking revolver in
hand. Wilson as he fell dropped
revolver from his left hand aud ex
iu a minute or so. Clark Wil
started toward Sullivan, but was
off with a hatchot. C. It.
started for his buggy as John
bnt was stopped by Clark Sulli
who pointed a pistol at him
told him if he moved a step
would bo killed. Connell
up and told Clark Sullivan noj
shoot, and bystanders interfering
tragedy was over for the time.
Gi Sullivan was at the mill at
time of tho shooting, but came
soon afterwards, as did Ed. 11am
tnond and George Seymore, who
were hunting in the neighborhood.
those on the ground at the
were J. W, Dunbar, W. R.

others, so that an iaquest will
probably develop pretty accurately
the degree of the offense. J. W.
Sullivan claims that John Wilson
fired the first shot at him. The de
was not of well balanced mind,
having been to the asylum once or
twice, from which he had just recent
ly returned.
It is feared by those who know the
bitterness betweou the parties that
further violence may ensue.
Further information is to the ef
feet that John Wilson was advancing
upon Sullivan and snapping bis pis
at him, and that all the witnesses
make Sullivan clearly justifia
ble.

Horton's Minstrels.
What promises to be an entertain
ment worthy of the patronage of our
families, is the one to be given
evening at Patterson’s Hall by
celebrated New Orleans
Minstrels. The following is from tie

the appearanc of Gorton’s
Minstrels at Brown's Opera House
last night, and about one hundred
people were turned awry
owing to the crowded state of galler
ies. Quite a number of ladies were
present, representing our best fami¬
lies, and it affords the reporter pleas
ure to be able to state that not a
word was said nor an act performed
bring the blushes to their cheeks. It
was a refined, first-class performance,
and every one went away perfectly
satisfied with the evening’s entertain
ment. The Daily commends Gorton's
Minstrels to theatre-going public
as an organization worthy of their
patronage.”

How They Are Working It!
The Rcpubl can Plan to Beat Judge
Stewart.
Do you remember how Freeman
beat Glenn ?
That was some time back, and
some of you may have forgotten ii.
Well, Freeman kept pretty quiet
until about the Sunday before elec¬
tion, and the Democrats did not sus
pect any danger. Then he turned a
hundred or so negro preachers loose,
whom he had fully primed, and
from every negro pulpit in the dis¬
trict came the proclamation to the
sable audience to turn out and vote
if they valued their lives, their wives
and their freedom. Not knowing or
not heeding this, the Democrats fail¬
ed to turn out on election day, and
Hon. James R. Freeman, radical, be¬
came congressman from this dis¬
trict.
It was a shrewd scheme—almost
the only one that couid have suc¬
ceeded—and it worked well. This
year it is going to be tried again;
but it will fail because it has been
discovered, aud because the present
congressman is more wide awake j
than Glenn and is a shrewder politi
cian than Thomas, the present He
publican candidate.
it may surprise some people S
know that there are two strong col
ored clubs in this county, fully or¬
ganized and pledged to turn out ev
ery Republican vote in the county at
the coining election. Milton Allen,
the chairman of the town club, can
probably give you lurther and more
accurate information. Negro preach¬
ers, paid by Thomas, have already
delivered two or three addresses in
this county and are acting in concert
with those of other counties in the
district. A Henry county orator
was here Tuesday in consultation
with his party.
There is no doubt whatever that
Thomas and bis friends are spend
ing time and money with the hope
of his election, and will poll a large
vote, as their party always does in
presidential years, when it can ap¬
peal most effectually to tfie parly
prejudices and passions of the col
ored voter. Rut their efforts have
been discovered in time to frustrate
them, and there is yet two weeks in
which to labor to bring out the Dem
ocratie votes. The district is round
ly Democratic on a full vote, and ev
ery Democrat should esteem it a priv
ilege rather than a task to go to the
polls and vote for the national ticket
presented this year. It would neve''
do for the capital district of Georgia
io go Repi blicau.
This review of the situation is earn
estly presented to the attention of
