The Journal. J. />. HOYL, Editor. I > awson" g KORGIA, Thnrsdsiy Morning, May 30, 78. Tlie Albany Fair Again. In our last issue, wo published a shoit communication from Albany sta ting that the fair llion in progress was it complete and g'ouous success.— Since returning and' conversing with many of our citizens who attended we find that they all agree with us in the above sta'ement. All who attend ed speak in the highest terms of the exhibition nod of their treatment, both by the citizens of the pluco and the officers of the Association. Our spnco is too limited to give de tails. The fair was all that the mon ey, good management, energy and en thusiasm of an intelligent and united community, coupled with all the ad vantages ot a very favorable and early'spring and abradant crops could make i*. One thing that we particularly noti ced was that overy thing was so con veniently an! systematically arran ged beforehand that the genial pres ident, and other officeia of the nsroei otion, instead of being run to dearh m\ out if humor, os is often the case on such occasions, had time to form the acquaintance i.nd look alter the comfort of visitors. This adds much to the smoothness of such gatbeiings. Besides, the display in the seveial de partments made ly president Welsh, himself, and his honsehold would alone, have made R very creditable exhibition. The Southwest Georgia Industrial Association has, by the grand success of her first fair, raised expectations, as to its future, that some (if its fiiends fear will be hard to meet. We, our selves, think that Albany will have to keep wide awake, energet c nnd con stantly on the alert to meet in the future theJexp"ctation she bus raised so high by this firrt effort, but hope ! nnd pi ay that she mny prove herself equal to all future demands. Tint Case of Mrs. Southern. Gov. Co’quitt, yielding to many petitions from this and other states, nnd after having fully investigated the meiits of the case, has commuted the sentence of Mrs. Rato Southern from death by hanging to impiison n:ent in the penitentiary for ten years. Mrs. Southern.it will be remembered, killed a Mrs. Cowart who,it is alleged, was tiying to alienate from her and secure to herself the affections and attentions of hor husband. The case attracted a gieat deal of at ttniion from all parisof the country, an! manyfp'eas, letters and petitions wont up to the Governor in behalf of j the condemned woman. The Gover nor, in c< n.n uting the sentoncej claims to have Acted on the merits of thejease, as presented to him, without any reference to the sex of the person iovolvod. We believe bis action in the matter is generally commended, fc'orao even think that the Governor ought to have pardoned the unfortu nate voman. We doubt very much if a man who had killed another man. under the circumstances made out be fore the Governor, would have lienn found guilty of murder, hut itseetTis'a lit tie strange to usthaffhe fnctsof the case ns presented to the Governor were so different firm tlicfe presented to the jury, especially since there whs an aide corps of lawyers on the defense. It is intimated that < ffnrt will be made for a further mit'gation of the punishtr.cn*. Letters are published from northern cities offering to sub scribe money, if necessary, to extri cate the unfortunate creature from her dilemma, and possibly to set her up in the world again after she is made fie*. Such letters will proba bly do th* woman rnoro harm than good. Vi hilo the case may have been, and may still l.e, ono admitirgj or even demanding merry and clomen ty, it might not bo best for public morals and public safety to make a heroics of such a woman for gneli an d* t '••o luivc no idea that Mrs. ScuHi ein will serve out her 10 years aont u> e, aud while not opposed to reas onable sud intelligent clemency, tin dr-r ihe circumstances, wo do not take kindly (• jaih. especially Hint prculi a*’y slobf sry kind oi gusli that oc ca ivi'R 1 '- f lops on us Irom the North.

As has been our custom fur a num ber ci years,” we attended the spring fair at Tliomasville oiv Thursday, last We found as usual an excellent dis play of vegetables ard Sowers, and a largo attendance f visitors, though we bel eve that neither was quite as urge ns we have seen at t’"at place on former ocea-ions. The vegetables on exhibition were equal in size and quality to anv we have seen, and the display of flowers was exten-ive tasty and beautiful. We do not know what collections took premiums, but specially admired the box flowers of Mrs. Dr. Bowers, the floral designs of Airs [llawkinsa and a flora] mon ument, to the memory of the Confed erate dead, by Miss Coylo. In the vegetable department our old friend Col. Hardaway, the model fanner of South Georgia, made, as usual a grand display. Wh were shewn by Mr. Varn idoe gome sand pears which were very fine, and are said to he immensely profitable to raise, being not subject to blight, very prolific ..nd of fine fla vor. We would advise all frui" grow ers iu this country to secure cuMings of these pears and raise them. Mr. Varnadiie told us, if wo lightly re member, that he usually sold the pears in New York at 810 or §l2 per bushed, and fonndjready sale for all the cut lings that he could spare. Wo found the officers of the Asso ciation, especially the Secretary, Mr. S. G. J cLendnc, very p'easaut and courteous, and our visit to the fair was a very enjoyable one We founcLTriplett nnd Uansell, the two newspaper men of the city attendee ns usual to visiting brethren of the quill, nnd apparently prosperous. Brother Blocker was pro enl. — took several volumes of notes an • made a veiy abb and eloquent speech in delivering si me of the iiremiums awarded on the occasion. By the way, Secretary, McLendon took the premium of $5 for the ugliest man on the grounds, at which we were very much disappointed until a lady friend consoled us by the sug gestion that, peihaps, the committee did not seo us. Among thn well known visitors from a distance wo noticed Cob H, H- Jones of the Telegraph k Missenger, Dr. Thos. P. Janes, Commissioner of Agriculture, Prof. G. J. Orr_ State School Commissioner, and Rev. S. S. Sweet, correspi nd.ent i t the Savaunuh Morning JVtws. j.lt may he just, in this connection, to state that Theniasville makes no effort at her spiing fairs, except for a horti cultural and floral display; stock, ran chinery, general Inrm products etc etc., are reserved for her fall exhibi tions. Thomas county deserves he credit of having inaugurated, and by perse verance through great difficulties nud opposing elements, finally demonstra ting ti e practicability and great utility of agricultural fairs in this part of the state, and the whole country is now reaping the henfi’s of her‘efforts, her experience and her success | We eaw a groat many familial faces at the Albany fair, and imag i ined that our county was pretty well , represented on tho grounds, hut, on consulting the two papers, both daily, for the timo being, of that city, we j ascertained that those in attendance were ait from Calltouu, Baker, Thomas, Mitchell and Worth counties. Hope Terrell will not treat our clover unit h bor so again. If our 1 nruble efforts had been of any avail, it would not hnvo been so this time. Wo made a short visit to Bain biidge during our recent jaunt to the fairs, nnd met many old friends whom we were glad to seo agaip. Dccntip county line organized n fair association and is going to have a big fair in the fab. Thero is no prettier o rhetter woll shaded spot it the Stufo than the sight c.inteniplntod for their fair grounds. Russel’, f tlio/V. nsrut , was bright and prosperous, had just got a fine job-press arid was doing some splend id work. John Sliuron still runs Ids splondcd hotel nnd never grows old, or tired of making his guests com-; fin ibalc. Tho citizens of Decatur and ad joining counties have, at a meeting lately held in Bainbridge, taken steps to organize a pertnanct fair associa tion. If was moved ami carriod to j open subscription lists at once nt five dollars a share, with on installment j nf one dollar e shai*. payable at an, early date.

The Pott*>r roc mittee ofebvmi, re e*‘ntl> appointed to investigate the (acts and frauds connected with the counting °t the vi fes ot Florida and Louisiana is holding preliminary meetings, preparatory to its ma'n work. When organize 1, it will likely seriT rub-com mittees to the states to belinves'igated. The appointmen* ol this committee has raised loud, piolonged arid sono rous ululation all along the radical fines. Revo’uticp !is their cry. They proclafin in ‘‘mournful numbers” that the object of it is to depose Mr. Haves nnd pitch him headlong fingn his lofty seat. Trie bloody shiit gives again its tattered 1 tail to the "bold breeze Heaven” and the hated name of ‘‘rebel” resounds through all tho North. On th- other hand, those whojlaim to tie leaders of rhe democracy aie persistent, vigorous and spasmodic in their asseveration that their intuition is n>t to un eat Mr. Hayes the high climax and chief benefici ary of the fraud, that their’only object is to place official nud irrefra ihle proof of the fraud on record as a scare-crow for the evil-disposed tiPreafer. They say that they are satisfied with Mr Hayes, and willing for him to fill oil l hi- term, 'hough proof* of the fraud may accumulate uti'il the pile is as “huge as high Olympus.” As for our humhlo self, we do not know what dangers may luik around us, or what grave reasons there may be for tiii humiliating at titude of the democracy,especially the deireernov of the South and, at the tisk of seeming silly, we must decline to kneel down until we seo graver reasons for ro doing than are at pres ent within tho rango of our circum scribed vision. The truth is, the democracy lias been forced lather un willingly iu'o the investigation of the fraud, fry he confessions of thoso who were active and prominent in its consummation; and, it is our opinion, that, should it he faitly and clearly proven and offic eiallv preeletm.il, thev will he forced to follow it up to it- legitimate results, I the unseating ol Hayes, by impeach ment, or otherwise, let the eonsequec- j cos he what they may. A man at the head of tins great government with tho cord “fraud” conspicuously, deeply, indelibly nnd officially branded right across tho cen tre of his forehead, for ali the world to see, in otir opinion would be a mis ernb.o tpectaculum return lntmanarum that a proud people would not and could not endnre. Should the fraud be proven, especi ally should *wn or three or ail the re publicans on the commi'tee concur in tho report that it is proven, we may look out-for a crah. Tho famous B. F. Butler is on the committee and we believe he is ripe md ready for a grand, dramatic and startling finale to the faree that has been on 'he na tional hoards e'nco the fad of ’76, Wo have lost much of our former admiration for Samuel J. Tildon, hut he may be our president yah Tho suggestion that Wheeler or (he presi dent of the Senate would succeed Hayes if deposed as a legitimate re sult of this investigation, we presume, is only intended for the ears of the very ignorant. A coirespondent of the Albany fiews of the 2Bd furnishes that | aper with the most remarkable story of at tempted infinticide ever recorded, as follows ; ,- On Monday evening last the 13:h insi., a negro woman in the employ cf George A. McDonald, in I.oe county, gave birth to a child by the road-side, while returning from Albany, and after an attempt at in ) fanticido buried it, as she supposed | dead, on the same night of its birth. I On Wednesday following its birth her | illness aroused the suspicion o‘ her 1 employer, and ho, together with the assistance of Mr. Nathan Powell and Mr. A. A. Kearney, set out to inves-; tignte the rase. Upon questioning I shoownedits birth, but said it was j dead and buried. Tho investigating party believing that sho had murdered J it, determined to disinter it, and find-! irig the grave commenced their work. 1 Not far, however, did they proceed j before the feet do crieß of the infant I convinced them that it lived, though j it had been buried two days and nights eighteen inches Lolow the sur face of tho ground.” j “Such brutality,” say s tho News, “is j unexcelled in tho history of crime, and the guilty party should be dealt with in strict conformity to tho law.” Wo might he inclined to believe this story but for tho statement that the child still lived after being buried un der the ground two days and nights.

Lit tle Eva Gilmer, youngest ciuld of \lr. and M rs. Joseph Giimor is no u.ore Tlie cirruurstani-es attending her dentil me peculiarly unfortunate and sad. Just before retiring on 'I l>u.a day night Miss Mattie Badger, n young lady wlur is staying with the family, went into the dining room ti get some Kerosene, which had been tequested Ly Mrs Gilmer, wht was sick. Little Eva had been undressed and prepared to retire, but followed Miss Badger. The latter took the Kerosene can, and holding it nttar the lamp which sni i.n the cupboard, commenced pouring the fluid into a saucer. All of a sudden she became aware that the kerosene had ignited. The gas escaping from the can which had just been opened is supposed to tiave reached tho top of the lamp chimney, which conveyed the blaze to the saucer and to tlie can. Miss Badger, thinking ihat tho trouble was with the lamp, threw it out doors, and about this time the can, which she lid dropped, discharged its contents and a sheet of fire. Little Eva was standing near by, and wils drenched with the burning fluid. She ran out into the yard, and, with remarkable presence of mind, jumped into a tuh of water and extinguisned the flames, not, however, until sheliad been fear fully burned. She bore her sufferings like a little hero untit about 3 o’clock a. m , when death came and relieved her. Little Eva was about five and a-half years old, and was one of the brightest, sweetest, little girls we evor knew. To the bereaved family wo i xtendonr deepest sympathy. —Albany Adcertiur.
