OUR VACATION.
A Trip Tlirough Ihr Country—
A Brilliant Wedding,
etc., etc.
Cabined, cribbed and e tiliued in
our hot and dii gy sanctum all sum
mer, ve were glad when the time
for our 4t!i o( July vacation came.—
From the fanners, wo had heard
glowiDg accounts of the crops
throughout, the country, and were
anxious to go otlt nod see thorn for
ourself Above all, we had been ad
vised that an obi friend and former
partner nnd chum was about to lead
to the Ilymenial altar one of the
fairest of all the bright and star-eyed
daughters of the Sunny South. We
bad loeu bidden to the marriage
feast.
On the mount g of Sa'urday, the
6th instant, we shook the dust of
Dawson from our feet; at noon we
diced with friend Boyd at Leary, an !
at sun-down stabled onr panting steed
at the home of D.\ 11. S Jones in
Laker county.
tut ctiors.
Our trip extended, trorn first to las',
to within a few tni'es of the F.oiida
line, tlitougli the counties of Calhoun,
Baker and Decatur. We cun not -ay
that the crops, in eve:y instance, emne
up to our high-wranght expectations,
though the U'-iversal testimony
cf the farmers was to the
e ffect thut tlicy ire as g'od as ever
known. In every instance where the
soil is of any account and the eult : -
•va'i n has been good tno mops are
luxuriant, but we saw some fields,
•■.specially >.n the southern portion of
out journey, that looked very oiscour
g ig. cotton not moro tiian from
hui to six inches high. This was
tint case, however, only in a few in
stances and arose I'ioin the ex'retre
poverty of the soil and dtfieiont culti
vatit n, or, perhaps it was fioni the
kind of seed planted, as we heard
tome id our companions on the way
t ill it “Bumblebee cotton,” whatev
er that may Lo.
The best section of eountiy through
which wo passed was on "ho Itcha
wynutclir.wny ere k from Milford
down to Couch’s mil 1 . Thoro are
tf ousauJs of acres of uncleared pins
lends iu that section, that would un
der ordinarily f.vorahle circumstances
produce a half hale of co ton to the
aero, aud liev. Mr. Gurry a large
planter with whom we spent a night,
told us they could be bought for a dol
lar an acre, on u credit] if desired,—
The pseseut mops on those lands are
iho best we have ever seen anywhoro.
Dr. Jones expects to gather a hale ot
cotton per aero on a fie’d of It* acres,
Mr. Bodilord expects 75 halos from
160 actcs, and 2000 bushels of corn
from 125 acres. Mr. Lark has 1000
acres iu cotton but we did not learn
his expected yield. Thx country is
perfectly healthy, and we know of no
place cfluring gteator inducements for
farmers, or those wising lo invest in
lands.
Wo give these item?, supposing
they will l)o of interest to our ngri
cuHurnl reader?.
Wo spent tlueodays with Dr Jones.
He was busily engaged preparing for
the reception of his bride, and we
whiled away a portion of tho time
angling in tho creek near by. Though
not f.u export fisherman we succe> ti
ed in lar.dii g sevoial fino trout on the
surrey hanks of the No'ohawey.
7HK wBODING.
Ou Wednesday morning, in company
with tho Dr. and a few other friend?,
we left for the residence of Mrs. San
born, ferty miles bsyond. We diced
at the Sharon ITouse, in Bainbridge,
and, our crowd having been consider
ably augmented, at 5 o'clock r. 51 wo
resumed our. journey. Arriving at
our destination soon after dark, wo
found the magnifficor.t- residence of
M r s Stnhorn illuminated for tho oc
casion. Without,on porches and pi*
szziit a thousand bos plauts and fl)iv
frr glittered in tho biihian'. lamp light,
and around and over co'urnn*, balusters
and walls, vinos and overgreens had
been trained by lair ind tasteful
hands to forms of beauty. Within,
in the rpaciour. halls and drawing
room-* was a display of floral decora
tion and ornamentation that wehavo
never a?en ?urpassed. Haro and
beautiful box-plants and flowers
were tastefully arrang' and in great pro
fusion Ihro’igh the bulis and piriur*,
a tuaJ'ioigo bell hung from tho cerl
ing,—evergreens, fern?, vines and
leaves were arranged over the wills
•n designs rivaling the skill and sur
passing the beauty of the painter.
Th whole made op h fairy scene of
beat:'}’ aud one! nntment that our
pencil is unable to describe so ns to
convey <in ad< qu.ate conception of it,
At about 10 i.’e’ock, standing be
neath a canopy of flowers arranged
for the purpose, the Rev. J. M.
| Marshall, in u vrry solemn nnd irn
| pressivo manner, united Dr. Fltl'on
Seieven Jones ami Miss Sadie S San
born in Mi” holy bonds of w edlock.—
At 12 o’clock supper was partak.n of
by the assembled guests, and all, soon
af'er, depaited for their respective
homes.
We called on the Doc'or and his
In nutiful bride a their home, in Ba

they may continue trirough life ps
happy as they seemed to be when we
parted with them.

calmly, and smiled pleasantly at a
frieri i standing near. The religious
services occupied twenty minutes, and
then the black cap was drawn and he
leaned against the gallows and pray

p. m. be bade the Sheriff good-bye,
the word was given and Shaw shot
rapidly through the trap. The body

Sys the E a!y County News: “On

quest of Mr Fee was to shoot him

The Americus Repub 'lean recites a
horrible and blood curdling outrage
lately perpetrated in Lea county, as
follows: “On Monday morning, the
Bth inst„, Miss Ball Bryant, anoiplian
girl about thirteen years old, living
with Dr. W. R. Buker, in Loo coun
ty was outraged and murdered by
some fiend while that gentleman was
on a visit to the city We learn that
M rs. Btrkor was sick in bed and Ihe
girl went to the spring bet ween eight
and nine o’clock which was about
half a mile distant from the house,
for a bucket of wa'er. When in the
act of stooping over the spring she
was assailed by tho inhuman scoun
drel who had been lurking behind a
tree near by awaiting his vic’itn, sei
zed f y the throat, and (it is supposed
by Dr. Barker, who examined the
child,) was brutally outraged and cho
ked to deii'fi, then tlinist head down
ward into the spring. After await
ing the return of tho girl tor several
hours, Mrs. Barker, suspected some
thing wrong, got up and went to her
father's Mr Fetor Lars more, a half
mi e distant, uid gave the alarm. —
lu.inediate’y search wa? made, and
tho chi ! d was found head downward
in the spring, which is very narrow
an 1 .hreo or four feet deep. From
the tracks in the sand it is certain
that this piece of diabolism was com
mitted by a negro; and we hoar that
blood bounds have been put on his
trail for the purpose ol bringing him
to justice.”
