| Has Visited Dawson, ang Haits From
Shellman.
The Macon: Evening News gives
the following in regard to S, W,
Leary, who is pretty well known
here, and whoze home isnear Shell
man. where his parents reside.
He claims to be a mind-reader and
in ccallition with the “great spir
its,” as the “Injun” would say :* |
~ “Officer Mack brought up a sor«
rowful looking white man on the
charge of vagrancy. The test‘
‘mony was that the man whe gave
hisnemeas 8. w, Leary was
found on Bridge Row beggirg
somethiig to eat, and when ques
tioned admitted that he had no
work and did not do any. The
man said he was from Randolph|
county and was going home. In
vain the court tried to get out of‘
him where he was from that he !
was on his way home, but Leary{
did pot furnish the in‘ormation.
He said he “Wwent into a negro sa-l
loon and asked for a cup of peas
and a drink of water. He eyi!
dertly went on the idea that such
diet would fill him up better than
anything else. When asked for
the pay he replicd that he bad no
money and gave back the peas,
having drunk the water. The woman
2ot mad aud pointed him out. At
the first blush he appeared to be a
vagrant and was fined fifty dollars
or sixty days on the gang, but
subsequently the sentence was re- |
considered, as, on close question
ing it was discovered that the man
was somewhat demented and had
been in the lunatic asylum. The
fine was suspended. "When told
to go out of town st once he left in
the bizgest sort of a hurry.”

Our College.
The Southwest Georgia Male
and Fema'e College open
ed Monday with an attendance of
hinety and will probably hve over
a hundred by the close of this
week. In the music department
there are sixteen seholars, and sevs

We are glad to note that so
many attended on opening day and
trust that the number will be
greatly increased ‘on next Mon
day. DProf. Jones, so far, bhas
proven himself to be the right per
son for the place, and we feel war
ranted in saying, from the coma
plimentary notices he and his as
sistants have rcceived elsewhere,
that he will give entire satisfaction.
Let all who bave not entered yet.
and intend todo so, start in by

He Was the Wrong Man. i
Judge J. W. Sears met two ne
groesin the road one day this
week and hired them to pick cot
ton for him. On his retura home
he saw a reward of §2OO offered
for the arrest of a negro by the
fhame of Marshall Smith, who had
killed Henderson Holland, at
Cordele. The description was o
much like one of the darkies he
had employed John Smith, that
he brought him to town and turn
ed him :over to Sheriff Thorn
ton, who telegraphed to the
gheriff of Dooly who came up its
urday, but Jogn Smith and Mar
shall Smith's complexions were ot
alike, and he was turned loose.

A CARU FROM JUDGE SIMMONS.
Epitor NEws: I see in the
NEWS a statemect that there was
much complaint about the monthly
term of the county court not being
held on the 22nd inst. Sueh com.
p}aint is unjust, to say the least
of it.
In the first vlace Col. G iggs
was absent—sick. (‘ol. Cbristie
was sick and absent, Col. Hoyl was
absent. Colonels Parks = and
Laing were the only attorneys
present. T looked over the docks
‘et snd saw that there was not a
' single case on the civil docket un
disposed of, and only one case on
' the criminal docket that there was
any likelihood or trying—the egse
of the State vs. Oliver Williams.
| Col. Parks, who was representing
the detendant, had agreed with
‘Col. Griggs to continue this cas_e,‘
80, after consulting with the mem-
I bers of the bar present, Judge
Roberts, the Ordine ry, dudge
t Clarke and others, I decided not to ‘
hold the court, (as there was not a
‘ single case that could be triea) and ,
1 issued the following order :
TeRRELL CouNTty CoURT,
At Chambers, Aug, 22, ’B9,
It appearing to the court that
there are no prisoners in jail, and
that the Solicitor General is ab
sent from the court on account ot
sickness, ahd that there are 1o
cases, civil or eriminal, that would
likely be tried at this term _of the
court, it is therafore ordered by
the court thut the busines® of the

September term thereof . Witness

Now I wish to say that I run

vite criticiem and scrutiny of all'
my official acts, I wish it unders

fairly and impattially. "By not

[Danon One of the Best Interior Markets
in Georgia.
{_Thare is no chauce to down
{ Dawsoa,
In pluck, energy and enterprise
she leads. o e
Every branch ot business pre
sents an air of cheerfutness, super
induced by the bright influences ot
80 much cotton.
‘ Dawson is going to have the
cotton if good prices and fair deale
}inj_-s will getit. It has long since
been conceded that Dawson is one
of the best cotton markets in
Southwest Georgia. We pay asl
much for cotton as Macon, Al
bany or Am-ricus. |
’ The prices in Dawson have been
vety favorable, ranging the past
week from 104 to 11 cents. At
such prices why shouldn’t we get
the cotton? Good solid prices
gratify the farwers, and, like all
~other business men, they are going
to sell their produce and buy goods
where the most suitable prices can
be obtaina=d. i
Dawson has every facility for
handling cotton—treight rates are
splendid, buyers liberal, and our
warehousemen are nutiring iu their
efforts to please their patrons, and
guard their interests closely, and
gecure for them the lest prices
possible, all of which can be veri
fied by former patrens, and will
stimulate the prnnters to hurry
‘their cottom to this market.
Besides b:ing a superb . cotton
market-ga';vgpu pays.the very tip~
top price for any other produce
you may have for sale. which can
easily ~be substantiated b
the thousands who buy and sefi
here. ’
’ We are proud of the town for
many other reasons, The extent
of our cash and credit si\les .will
compare favorably with atly town
of equal numbaer ot population.
Our merchants are wide awake and
are vot afraid to assert tbat they
will duplicate prices in any line of
merchandise, Prices are as low
as can be afforded by othes towus.
The quality of goods sold here will
gtand the test with any of our
neighhors. Dawson .bugs more
cotton, and paysas much for it as
any town in Georgia.
This is not written under the
heat of excitement, and iz no flimsy
fabrication to allure the unsuss
pecting to pursue the wrong course.
The firmers know the NEws is
their staunch friend and advocate
tor right, and it will be our duty,
as well as our pleasure, to cham
pien their cause and advise them
cerrectly.

As is usual when the ‘old folks
object to the marriage of the youth
of to-day, as it has been for cei~

marry or die. Just so it was with
Mr. J. T. Loylessand Miss Nan~
nie Suggs, of near the Cross Roads,
on last Fridoy. Mr. Loyless
awaited the absence of the young
lady's father from home. when he
went over, and the lady upon
whom he bestowed his affections
joined him and together they went
to the residence of Dr. Mathis. who
made them man and wite. It is
said that ““the course of true love
never rans smooth,” and as these
young people have probably had
some expevience ot this; kind, we
trustTthat in future 1t may be un

The Gallant Rescuer.
One cvening last week, while

met with quite an exciting expe
rience. the public road. and
railroad, 1t will be remembered,
are({uite close at that point, and
on the oppesite side is a very dense
aod marshy swamp, and it one
happens to meet a train while
driving there, unless his steed. ia
~very gentle there will surely be a
runaway. The steed was not an
exception, and when the afternogp
freight came thundering behind
them, with the noise of pandes
monium, the horse decided it was
no. place for him, and in the
vernacular of 10c novels, “‘the
noble courser, with disteaded nos=
trils and feyes flashing fire, filled
with awe at the oncoming traip,
carried the maidens far into the
torest,” where a short .time a'ief.
wards they were rescued by a no.
ble young man pamed George
Monroe Roberts. The freight
traio carried the news to the
depot, and several gentlemen
started in pursuit. Luckily no one
was hurt, not even the buggy, and
with the exception of a little fright
and mud, the young ladie ruturn~
ed to the paternal roof noae tne
worse for wear.
