EROX ALBANt. Albany, Qa., September 19 , Mr. Mime, of I,ee county, was se- j vcrelv cut in u gin this alternoon. 1 Hit arm was terribly mangled. Am putation may be necessary. Mr. Sid Lewis, lately of the Tel- | egrapb ami Messenger, Is now con nected with tbe Albany News and Advertiser. He is a forcible writer, and Albany welcomes him. The paper will now be enlarged. Tbe Albany Medium bas aban doned tbo idea of starting a dally, and will instead issue a large Sun day wecekly, under tbo manage ment of Mctsra. Hanlon and Cody. Success to them. Tho talk of the town now. is the fair of tbe Jackson Artillery and Albany Guards, to come off in Oq, toner. They will visit the New Orlesns Exhibition in February next. The bridge question lias been at last settled by tbe Supreme Court, granting tbe county tbe right to build a bridge at tbe foot of Broad street. You will bo surprised to know tbat the “pet and pride” of Al bany, tlie Artesian well, is not even honored with a wooden en closure, but is left entirely’ open to tbe disgust of visitors and morti fleation of residents and tax pay- era. It is a rendezvous for geese, bogs, cows and wasber-womcn. A lady cannot approach the well with out rubber boots, run agaiust by offensive negroes and insulted by obscene language, and still our no ble City Council refuse to act for fear of offending the darkies, who of course are the principal tax payers—uo, 1 mean voters. 0. Kiiitok Keoobiieh:—The names of tbe new Kxecullve Committee for the 12th Senatorial District not having been sent with the other proceedings of the Convention, which assembled in Lumpkin on the 2nd fnst.,for publication in the RscoBOxn, 1 herewith send them and request their publication. 8lewart county—J. A Fort, Sr., M. L. Everett, W. W. Fitzgerald. (Jultman county—W. A. Hill, C. A Willis, John C. Hill. Webster county—W. M. Sears, J. P. Beaty, J. P. Walker. W. M. Skaiih, Sect'y. A Strange Death. Coi.umbus, Qa., September II.— Mr. Charles Wynn, ol Chattahoo chee county, died to-day under tbe following peculiar ciroumstanoes: Ho had been suffering with tooth ache for several days, and the oth er night applied a lump of gum- camphor to the tooth, it allevia ted tho pain, and he dropped off sleep, still retaining tb* camphor in Ids mouth. It is supposed tbat he swallowed tbe saliva produced by tbe action of the camphor dur ing his sleep, as be Anally awoke in great agony. Bis gums and mouth were terribly burned. Me lingered until tills morning when death relieved his suffering. He The Work In Wisconsin. Tbe result of Mr. Suhurz's work in Wisconsin is beginning to show itself. At a large meeting of inde pendents held at .the St. Charlos hotel an organization was formally effected. J. P. McGregor presided. He explained that tho purpose ol the meeting.was to decide upon a i State centra! committee to corres pond with and perfect an organiza tion of republicans opposed to the election ot Blaine residing in all parts of the State. While oomniit- tees were perfecting the organiza tion ex-Congressman Pound was called upod for a speech. He re ferred to what he termed “an Inter esting batch of correspondence be tween Blaine and Fisher, which had just been mads public." Be bad discovered that only the inde pendent press published the news as it was. He attacked the parti san press for the suppression of news reflecting upon the candidates espoused by it. Tho election of officers resulted as follows: President—Tbaddeus G. Pound; Vice Presidents—Herman Sigel, J. B. Foilett, Henry Baetz. Ex ecutive Committee—Thaddeus 0. Pound, Herman Sigel, Heniy Iieatz, Otto Zwictuseb, J. P. Mc Gregor, X.S. Murphy, and Herman Heyn. Mr. Pound expressed his thanks, and hoped no mistake had been made in bis selection for tbe position. He urged everybody to get to work; He suggested tbs appointment of a committee 6t three to decido upon a subscrip tion heading for scouring the en rollment of independents. They concluded to adopt a declaration that the signature involved fealty only to Cleveland as against Blaine, and that as far as the oounly, or other ticket outside of the presi dential ticket, were concerned, the signers could do as they pleased. The beading is as follows: "We, the undersigned, who have usually in tho past supported tbe republican presidential tiohet, be lieving that tho best interests of the country demand the defeat of James G. Blaine and tho oleotiou of Grover Cleveland, do hereby severally enroll oursolvea a* co-op erating to that end.” Tbo meeting was very enthusi astic. Large numbers of voters are signing the organization pa pers, which are now being circu lated. Another Distracted District. Savannah, Oa., Sept. 19.—After tbe 1070th ballot in. the First dis trict senatorial convention, yester day, the deadlock was broken by the delegates from Bryan ana Effingham counties withdrawing from tho convention. Falligant was then nominated by the Chat ham delegates. It is not known whether the delegates tro* Bryan and Kffingham wifi put a candidate in the field nr not. Fire Inches of Snow. IIAi.ivAX, September 18.—An exceedingly cold wave prevails In the marltimo provinces of Cumber land county. Several inches of snow baa fallen. Sunday five in ches of snow tell at Moncton, N. B. Crops arc suffering. .\umcrons Sentence. Wii-minoton, Del., Sept. 18.— Kd. lledden, a horse thief, was to day sentenced to pay tlie oost of prosecution, $100 restitution mon ey, $200 fine, one hour in the pllo- ry, twenty lashes and undergo eighteen month’s imprisonment. Foliticsl .Notes. If it costs $300,000 to save leaves a wife and four small''chtld- j Maine bow much will It take to rescue Iowa? The inti Blaine electoral ticket in Nebraska is composed of two democrats, two anti-monopolists and one greeonackor. While they nro raising the Tal lapoosa, wouldn’t it be a good thing to raise tbe rest of the navy, Just a little?—Merchant Traveler. Speaker Carlisle will make sev eral speeches in Iowa immediately alter the Ohio election, tho exact number nud dates of which have not as yet been fixed. There is a curious bolt io Burke county, Pa., against a candidate for local office, on the ground mat he p -rmitted his mother to be sent to the poor house. In response to tbe cry of distress from tbo Blaine manager* in Ohio, the Boston Transcript say* one contribution of 110,000 bas already gone from that city. Tbe more closely tbe political horizon is scanned, the clearer It is seen tbat Cleveland and Hea dricks are to bt elected in Novem ber and by a very targe majority. Headricks la Peril. St. Louis, Sept. 17.—A special from Farmer City, 111., says: “A morning passenger tram on tbe In dianapolis, Bloomington and West ern Railway, while pasting west ward struck a broken rail, was thrown from the track, and lifteen or twenty persons received suob iniuries as to be perfectly helpless, but fortunately no one was killed. Some lifteen others were injured, but not seriously. Ex-Governor Hendricks was going to Peoria but miraculously escaped injury. Much alarm and excitement was caused by tbe mishap.” A Kentucky Tragedy. Louisville, Ky., Sept. 18—-A dispatch from Frankfort, Ky., to the Courier Journal says Morgan Browner, aged fffleen, ton of Col. A. G. Browner, to-day abot and probably fatally wonnded aooiored boy, John Simmons. Simmons Whipped Browner and tlw Utter S at a gun anil shot tbe negro on I"' tight.
