Judge Barnard Hill, of the Macon

while holding court at Knoxville,
Crawford county, last week. He was

been the cotise of his death.
Some of the negroes in Atlanta
don’t believe that the man recently
exhibited in that city, as the president,
was Hayes. They don’t see how a
republican president could tell them
that they were betler off, under the
rule of native white men, than under
northern hayonetts and carpet bat get s.
Others of them say that Hayes sold
himself to the democrats and the'devil
for $2,000,000, for, au Atlanta negro
was in Washington at the time, and
saw tl e devil pay over the money.
There was a little trouble between
the cotton buyers and warehouse-men
in Macon a few days ago. The buy
ers refused to pay the 25 cents per
bale charged by the waiehouse-mtn
for the delivery of cotton, considering
this charge unreasonable, as delivery
of goods tukes placo after all sales,
and it is not usual to charge for it,
except inthe single case of cotton. The
warehouse-men claimed that they had
made their arrangements for the sea
son with this charge in view, and
could not give it up this year, but
agreed to do so next year. On this
basis the matter was settled.
There seems to be some trouble

their own territory, if necessary for
the recapture of the stolen proper y.—
One hundred United States soldiers,
chased a bedy of them across the
Rio Grande and captured a Mexican
town. It looks a little warlike.

Believing that you appreciate com
munications from your fiieuds when
they are traveling around over the
country, I have decided to give you
a report of a recent visit to Leary.—
This was my first trip : a warm recep
tion await* and me, and never beforo
have I met with more cordial hospi
tality than that extended by the citi
zens of that thriving town. I was the
recipient of favors from the generous
board of Mr. W. T. Simmons and la
dy and Mr. Nelson und lady, both of
which are most exco lent families.
Called upon Phil Boyd, (one r f the
m-'et genial hearted fellows in the
world) at his fine new store was
warmly welcomed by him, and his
corps of good-looking and gentleman
ly clerks, especially Charlie Simmons
who is ever ready, as they a 1 are, to
do the honors of the house in the very
best u at ner possible.
Also had the pleasure of meeting
my clever young friend, J. A. McGre
gor, who, I found, tn his usual cheer
ful mood, and full of hope for the
futute life and posperity of his peo
ple and town.
Long mey they live and prosper

At a regular communication of Ward
Station Lodge, No. 281, E. & A. M.,
hold at their Lodge at Ward Station,
S. W. R. R. Oa., Sept. 23rd, 1877,
the following preamble and resolutions
were unanimously adopted, viz:
Whfhfas, It has pleased the Su
preme Ruler of the universe to sum
mon from this terteatrial Lodge to the
Gr'and Lodge on high our beloved
brother, W. N. Watts, whoso fault less
record, christ an character, genial na
ture and generous spirit, together wilh
an earnest zeal and untiring devotion
lo the interest of the order, developed
lit our hearts for him the profoundest
sentiments of affectionate regard and
brotherly love. Therefore, bo it
Resolved, That while we reverently
bow to this sad dispensation of Prov
idence, whoso ways' are inscrutable
and past finding out, and “ Who
dooth all things well” in removing
our beloved and worthy brother, we
desire to express our deep souse of
irreparable lota sustained by the death
of one who, with eloquent example,
always fittingly and impressively il
lustrated those cardinal principles
which constitute the foundation stones
upon which rest the superstructure of
Freemasonry.
Resolved, That we share largely in
the sorrow of the widow and the or
phans and relatives of the deceased
brother, and hereby tender them our
heartfelt sympathies, and commend
them to the loving care of Him who
has so lavishly vouchsafed Ills prom
ises to the children of men.
Resolved , That as a suitable testi
monial of eur grief stricketf hearts,
our lodge room be draped in mourning
to remain so for the space of 90 days,
and the brethren in this juris ictiou
be requested to wear the usual badge
of mourning for 30 days.
Resolved, Tliat ’hese resolutions be
spread upon our minutes, and an en
grossed copy transmitted to the widow
of our deceased brother, and a copy
furnished the Dawson Journal with
a request lot publication.

Our attention has been called to
some now and useful cooking utensils,
recently invented which make baking
and cooking a pleasure, instead of a
dreaded necessity. One of which, the
Patent C’entenniiy (Juke and Broad
Pan, made of Russia iron, is so con-
Btiucted that your can remove your
cake when baked, instantly from the
pan, without breaking or injuring it,
and you can remove the tube, and
convert it info a plain bottom pan, for
baking jolly or plain cakes, bread, etc.
Another— the Kitchen Gem—a plated
wire boiler or steamer to hang inside
of an ordinary iron pot, for boiling or
steaming vigotables, etc., which wfien
done, can be removed perfectly dry,
without lifting the heavy sooty iron
pot off of the stove, avoiding the dan
ger of burning the bauds wdth the
steam in pouring off the hot water,
and-the vegetables Cun not possibly burn
if the water boils dry, as the steamer
does not touch the bottom of the put.
These goods are sold exclusively
through agents to families, and every
housekeeper si ou and by all means have
them. A splendid opportunity is of
fered to some reliable lady t r gentle
man canvasser Of this county to secure
the agency for a pleasant and profita
ble business. For terms, teirimry,
etc., write to L. E. Brown & Cos.. Nos.,
214 and 216 Elm. Street, Cincinnati,

Astonishing Siicc.tiss.— lt is the
duty ot every pet son who has used Bos
cube's German Strop to let its wonderful
qualities be known to their Iriends in curing
consumption, severe c-ugbs, croup, asthma,
pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung
diseases. No peison can use it without,im
trediate relief. Three dnscs will relievo auv
ease, and we consider it the duty of all
Druggists to recommend it to the poor dying
consumptive, at lea3t to try one bottle, as
40,1X10 dozen bottles were sold last year,
and no one ease where it failed waß repot ted.

THE CAPITAL QUESTION.
The capital question is giving us no
trouble whatever. A e have been an
attentive observer of the arguments of
the advocates of both Milledgevi le
and Atlanta, and ha ve arrived at the
eonclusiun that the only reason that
can be urged tor the. removal back to
Mllledgevilie, is the supposed necessi
ty ami expense of building another
state house, if the capital remains in
Atlanta. Now, that Atlanta has made
a preposition, direct to the people, to
build a state house at her own expense,
and without further hardening the tax
payers of the state, we can see no
reason why it should not remain
where it is.
We have not yet, through this de
partment, given onr views of the new
constitution now before the people for
ratification or rejection. We have
read the document, carefully, and,
while we claim to have but a meagre
conception of the laws that should bo
embodied in an instrument of that
kind, as fundamental principles for
the government ot a gre it state like
ours, we are fully satisfied with it,
and shall give ii as hearty and zeal
ous support as we did the calling of
th convention.
We have given the homestead ques
tion no special consideration, —are not
favorable to large inalienable home
steads; but, following the old injunc
tion “of two,evils choose the least,”
we presume have to cost our
vote for th.i homestead of 1877.
Considerable rain has fallen in this
sectiou the present week, and the tur
nip raisers have put on smiling faces.
We hear it rumored that the first
grand ball of ihe season will be boob
ed for Boyd’s Hall about the middle
or latter por’.ion of the present month,
provided that a sufficient number ol
the “lair sex” can be “imported” for
the occasion. Success to it.
In perusing the last two issues of
the Early county News, we notice a
painful absence of the Calhoun col
umn, and rise toask why is this Bursty?
Come “Calhoun,” if this happens g..iu
we’ll be forced to wiite your valedicto
ry and ruourn your department as <ie
lunct, Nil desperandum.
A Milford correspondent of tho Al
bany News, under tee r.om, d* p.'u i.e of
“Romulus and Remus” is eliciting a
good-deal ot enquiry. His articles are
well written, and when we come to
consider the fact tha: he is only about
16 years old, we appreciate his cotu
‘municaiions all the more.
Snakes.— Someenthusiastienimrods
ot Morgan were out huntinglast week,
and not finding game in abundance,
tluy concluded, lor the sake ot variety,
to hunt snakes. Result; tliiee large
rattlesnakes measuring 7, 8 and 10
feet respective ly, were killed in a very
short time. From these were taken
twenty-two rattlesaud two buttons To
destroy twenty-six feet ot leptile is
certainly an act of heroism. Those
boys meiit air! deserve the thanks of
this community. “The seed of. the
woman shall bruisethx serpent’s bead.’’

Morgan, Ga., Sept. 29, 1877,
Messrs. Editors: I respectfully ask
space in yout department to notice,an
entertainment given on last evening
by the pupils of the colored schoo?, at
this place. This entertainment had
been in contemplation for several
weeks and the efficient teacher of this
school, whose name was mentioned in
your last issue, had been engaged for
some time in training aud drilling her
pupil* for the occasion.
The consummation was all that her
heart could have wished and must
have been extremely pleasing and
satisfatory to her. Th curtain was
raised promptly at 8 o’clock, and ie
vealed, to between three and four
huudred audi’ors, a small but neat
anil cosy well arranged. The
sceneiv, too, was fit aud appropriate,
the back-ground beiug white covered
with a prolusion ol lovely mottoes and
beautilul pictures. Centrally situated
with large letters, formed iu the
Shape it a hail mo. observed a
motto that > esetves special mention. —
It was
“EDUCATION AND LABOR,”
aud evoked an expression of admira
tion from all who rend it. I have
never rea l any motto that seemed to
be mote fitting and appropriate.
Declam,ll l,ms I'V title boys, essrjs
by the gnls, songs by the whols
school, and dialogues were the oidei
ol ihe evening. Everything was car
ried on in an orderly, prompt, regular
aud systematic manner. There was
no hesitation, no timidity, bashfulness
or treachery of memory. All knew
their parts wed and acted them well.
The best of order was kept on the
stage, behind the curtains, and in the
audience. There was no rush, no
loud talking, no vociterous • ppiause.
When anytinug good was said or done,
it was recognized by the audience in
a mild and appreciative manner.—
About 11 o’clock the curtain was drop
ped upon the last scene, and ail left
expressing themselves well pleased
with the porlormanc.'.
Ouskuyus.
Trip lo Baker Cortuty.
On last Sabbath morning, an op
portuni'y having presented l'se.f, i
took a short trip down into Baker
county; and as I had heard so much
about the “new cut road which leads
from our little town, in a southwester
ly direction, out to the old Morgan
and Milford road, my curiosity per
suaded me to choose that route, iu
preference to any ofiieiy for my tide.
It was my desire to*asoer , aiu, if pos
sible, whether or not there was any
just cause for eo ninny complaints
made by our friends from Baker and
other places south of Lertry, as to the
difficulty and danger iu driving a
loaded wagon along the said road;
and upon what groun 1 Jim Garrett
so complac ntly uttered those little
“cuss wolds” about the “darn tiling.’
A drive of about three hundred
yards, rather south of west from this
point, parallel with, and oa the north
s'de of the railroad, brought me
the point at which the much talked
of road commences. Well, I rode in,
and on over stumps, roots and pine
limbs for the distance of about one
mi e, to Mrs Hr.ivey’s field, through
the south-east cornel of which, I
presume, the road purposes to run as
soou as the erep cßn be gathered and
the fen e removed. There a blind
road sallies off down to the left, ma
king a small eemi-circle around the
corner ot the field cn the tight, t?ien
back into the “new cut road” again.
From the Sold, the said road runs
rather south about ouehuudredyar-de,
then turns-*® little to the tight and
crosses the bed of a small branch. At
a short distance from the branch,
there it makesanother beautiful bend,
and runs perhaps a mile, it seems to
me, in a soothea*t!y course, tos small
patch which surrounds a negro cabin
directly in front of the Mott houses.
From tiiat poir t, it goos on from left
to right and from right to left, until,
finally, it runs into the said Morgan
and iviilfotd road five, or five and a
half miles from Milford. Now taking
every thing intoconsideratiou, I should
hdve to give my judgment in favor of
Jim Garr9tt, and join him iu saying
“dam such a pjece of workmanship.”
In my said road will never
best much eetvue, if any, and while
I consider it a iat ure, and deem the
judgment of tli couit granting the
older a sad mistake, yet I censure no
one, tor, no doubt, all who were mter
erted worked with interest and good
laitU from beginning to end
At ten, A. m, I reached the quiet
little town ot Miilord, and, after an
hour’s rest, I walked up with some
trieuds to the Baptist < bnreh to hear
the Rev. Charlie Martin, of this couu
ty. preach the luneral sermon cf Mr.
John Giiffin, who died a few months
ago at, or near, V\ illianisbuig, in this
county. After a gt.od congregation
had gathered, Mr. Martin lose and
read the following text—“Forasmuch
as ye know that year labor is not in
vain in the Laid.’ VY Rich may be
fciund in the 58 vers", 15 chapter, ot
the Ist Corinthians. He preached an
excellent sermon, and made many
beau rful illustrations, going to show
how unsuccessful the lalor of man,
unless it be in the Lord. Mr. Martin
seemed to tie a very pleasant man,
and, no doubt, made quite an impres
sion on tlie good people in and about
Milford. I learned too, that there bad
been a greatdeal of sickness in that
section the past two months. Crops,
in th&t county, at least about Miliorcl,
are very poor, being, porhaps, only one
half wtiat they ought to have been,
with the proper seasons.
