Williams died at Lis resi dence, three miles west of Dawson at 4 o’clock Saturday morning last, of paralysis. Ho was about sixty- four years of age, and baa beeDonc of our leading and most trusted citizens for forty years, in fact, be lived at bis last residence before Dawson and Terrell county was ever thought of. There i9 npt a man in tho county who has more friends, among both white and black, than did Judge Williams. He leaves a large family to mourn their loss, and the whole commu nity deeply sympathize with them. He was interred in the city ceme tery, yesterdry (Sunday) morning at 11 o’clock, in presence of a very large audience. Terrell Superior Court convened this morning at 10 o’clock, and was organized by Judge John T. Clark, but as Captain Pickett had been retained in a majority of the cases to ho tried, and as Colonel Paths has not sufficiently recov ered to endure the fatiguo of a trial of his cases, it was thought best by both bar and parties interested to adjourn the court, which was done, until the first Monday, the 5th, of January next. Mr. J. A. Koncday now ocenpies the residence on Vine street just vacated by Dr. Farnum,and while he attends to his lurming business, Mrs. Kenedy proposes to tako a few boarders. It’s »-» evccDent place to board, I’ve tried it. _ , . . Col. J. G. Parks and family, are irimmmgsl at home again, and their many friends are delighted to see them.

Hoyle, of Eufaula, is in our city. He has sold out the Bulletin, and is going regularly into the manufacture of his rheu nmtic and neuralgic remedy. He has sold a two-thirds interest in it, for a large sum, and refuses to sell the balance. The medicine ia on a big boom in Eufaula, and tho Doc tor thinks he has a fortune in It. J. A. F.

Atlanta, Nov. 21 I find hern by circulating among the leading spirits of the Legislature two dis tinct opinions as to tbo course that Gov. Cleveland will pursue in the formation of his Cabinet. One of these is that ho will give the Inde pendent Republicans considerable prominence, owing to the valuable assistance that they gave him in securing his election. It is held by this taction of Cabinet builders that Gov. Cleveland cannot but know that without the aid of the disaffected clement of the Republi can party he could not bavo cap tured New York, and that Curtis, Beeoher, Scburz A Co., know this also, and will call upon Mr. Cleve land when the time comes for recog nition. Tho theory held by tbe other class 1b that Gov. Cleveland will not pay much attention to tbe In dependent Republicans, as they voted for him not on account of any love for tho Demooratio party, bnt simply to use him as a tool to cleanse the politics of their own party and rebuke the Republicans for having put out a bad man. It is held by these theorists that the fact of the Independent Republi cans voting with tho Democrats at this election is no guarantco that they will remain with the Demo cratic party, and it is believed by them that four years from now tho disaffected element will be using its money and its influence to defeat the nominees of tho Democratic party. One of this class said to me wbi’e speaking upon this sub ject : “I think that the Independent Republicans should feel satisfied with their work. They joined us this time not because of any lore Tor either Cleveland or the Demo cratic party, but simply to defeat Blaine, and in that way purity their own party. They havo succeeded in doing this and should feel con tent with what they have done. No doubt many of them feel that way already, and have made up their minds to got back in-tho ranks as soon as possible, and open up a strong finht on the Demooratio party with the hopes of deflating it lour years from now.” IT IS SUGGESTED HEBE, AND THE SUO QESTION meets with strong approval, that the South should Lave at least three places in tho Cabinet, inasmuch as tho South furnished Mr. Cleveland the bulk of his electoral vote. The three gentlemen most prominently mentioned for the placet aro Rea gan, of Texas, Lamar, of Missis sippi, and Hammond, of Georgia. A prominent politician in my hear ing a few days since offered to bet $50 that Hammond would bo made Attorney General. It is known here that when Mr. Cleveland thought that he detected a move ment upon the part of tbe Repub lican managers to count him out in New York State he at onco tele graphed for Hammond to como on, an.l that Hammond responded. Since then ho has been to see Cleve land onco or twice, and this with other inside workings is considered good grounds to believe that Ham mond is in a good way to bo made Attorney General. Wbllo this talk it going oa ap plicants for government places In Georgia are not idle. I met on the streets a few days ago W. C. Glenn, of Dalton, a young lawyer of that section, who told me that ho was a candidate for United States Dis trict Attorney. He said that while he believed that there were at least seventy-five applicants for Speer’e berth, he was nevertheless a can didate, and would remain so until tho matter was decided. Since then I havo heard that M. P. Reese, of Wilkes, Hoke Smith, of Fulton, Judge John I. Hall, ot Spalding, and Judge II. B. Tompkins, of Fulton, were also candidates for tho office. It ie quite likely that there are a number of others who are already in the field, as the office ie probably the fattest one in the State. As Speer has a year or more yet of official life, the lucky man wilt bavo lota of time to study up tbe practice of law in tbe United States Courts with reference to violations of tbe internal revenue laws. Dipabtmint or Aobicultum, Atlanta, Ga., Not. 90, 1884 To the Crop Reportera and other Farmera: The New Orleana Cot ton and Industrial Exposition will open on the 16tb of December. It is well known that no legislative appropriation has been made for a collective exhibit of the reaouroes of Georgia, and all efforts to raise funds lor that purpose have failed. Notwithstanding aucb failure, tbe railroads and manufacturers will make a creditable exhibit of the mineral depositi, the forest re sources, and tbe manufacturing in dustries or our State. It remains non’ for the formers to do their part by furnishing choice samples of the product* of their labor*, to tbe end that tho agricultural re sources and capabilities of our loved State, and the skill and en ergy of the tillers of her soil may >1A>.

The engine was im ported from England, and was built by George Stephenses, la MBM*f whManwaaaNM& ' be illustrated at this great woilda exposition. I appeal to the patri otic impulses, as well a* to tbe self interest, of every true Georgian to respond to this oail and te aid by word and deed in the effort to maintain and to advance tbe repu tation of our State, for wealth of soil and climate, variety and qual ity of produots, and capaoity tor fqture development. Let publio spirited farmer! and other eilizeus of each county col lect together choice samptci of farm and orchard products and send to me at Atlanta, Ga. Tbe following list is given as sugges tive, though not exhaustive, of euoh articles as will be propor to em brace: Cotton stalks, eotton seed, cot ton lint (samples), seed cotton, corn (different varieties, in ear and shelled), peas, rice, wheat, rye,oata and barley (in sheaf and clean giain), potatoes (Irish and sweet), peanuts, ebufos, goobers, mlllo maize, Egyptian wheat, millet (In variety), buok-wheat, pumpkins, clover and grasses, lucerne, onions, apples, sugar oano and sorghum, (including sugars ' and ayrnpa) , jellies and bonoy and wax, vinegar,. canned fruits, wines, cider, peach and apple brandies,dried traits, etc. Collect individual contributions together at some central point, box or bundle together, or ship as freight to “J. T. Henderson, Com missioner, Atlanta, Georgia, for New Orleans Exposition.” Delicate articles may be sent by express. Transpertation charges to Atlanta will be paid hero, ana the ootftrlbu- tiont will be assorted and shipped to New Orleans. In oaaea where separate articles contributed are •uffieienl in quantity and amount to command a market value, and contributors aro not willing to donate them, tbe same will be paid for at market priee. Samples ol grain, peas, etc., may be aent in quantities of two quart* up to on* bushel, properly labeled with name of variety and grower. This circular and appeal l« ad dressed especially to tbe “Crop Reporters,” because I think they ean be relied upon to do whatever is practicable In their several conn- ties, and I urge them to exert them- selves to arouse interest and secure tbe co operative effort necessary to succeed In tbit endeavor. The persistent efforts of tbe sev eral commissioners having foiled of success, in behalf of our common interest and our common pride, I make this appeal, confident from last experience that It will not be n vain, but that yon will leave no, effort untried which may give promise of aucceae. My own offi cial position greatly add* to my concern, and even imposes a sente of responsibility and duty in this matter. Well knowing that tbe unpropitloua season* have seriously aflectcd tbe quality of many of our crops, I only expect and aak that tho best attainable samples and article* be collected. There is no time to be lost. Let tho collections be made quickly and •hipped as above requested, to as to reach Atlanta early in December, and bo made ready for ablpment to New Orleans before December 15tb. Very respectfully, J.
