The Engrc-ssionnl Canvass.
The présent indications prom.
ise one of the elivliest skirmishes
ever witnessed in the¥econd Con.
gressiona. District lfil the Con
venfisn meets at Camilla to nomi
‘nate the Democratic candidate o*
the 25th of August.
There are nomur pronounced
candidates in the®™field, viz: Hon.
H, G. Turzer, the present ircum
beflt; Hon. R. G. Mitchég;, of
Thomas; Hon. W. T. Jones, of
Dougherty, and;filon. J. H. Guer
ry, of Terrell.. Weo include Mr.
Turner in the list of pronounced
candidates upon the fact that his
own county, Brooks, has already
elected delegates and instructed
thera to present hjs name to the
convention. f
There are 17 counties in the
district. Thomas and Decatur
counties will have four votes each,
and all the other counties will
have two votes each in the con
vention, making the total number
of votes 38,
~ With four candidates in the
field, each having a respectable
following,neither can expect to car
ry into the convention a majority
vote, and the result is, therefore,
mixed with much ancertainty. At
present the outlook 1s about as
follows:
Turner will go in with Brooks,
Mithell and Decatur, and proba
bly Lowndes and Berrien.
Mitchell will have Thomas and
Colquitt, and scems to stand an
equal showing with Turner in
Lowndes and Berrien.
Jones will have Dougherty,
Worth and Baker.
Guerry’s friends claim Terrell,
Randolph, Clay, Calhoun, Quit
man, Miller and Early, but ap
prehend a close contest with Tur
ner’s friends in the counties of
Calhoun, Randolph and Early.
As none of the counties except
Mitchell, Brooks and Thomas
‘have yet elected their delegates,
the apportionment between the
candidates as laid down ahove
will not be accepted as final; but
when the roll of counties is called
at the convention it will be found
that we have not missed it far,
and that the doubtful counties
have been correctly placed—
Lowndes and Berrien between
Turner and Mitchell,and Calhoun,
Randolph and Early between Tar
ner and Guerry.
There are rumors of dark
horses and of a combination to
defeat Mr. Tarrer with the same
tactics that defeated Smith at

ters.—Albany News.
WE desire to do two gentlomen
in this ety the justice to call pub
lic attention to an act of theirs in

Mr. G. W. Morrowezskowskie re
turned theiv dogs—setters and

other property, Dr. Paulett re
turning four sctters at $l5O, and
Mr. Morrowezskowskie a pointer
at $25. It is the first instance of
dogs being returned as property
we have ever known. Those gen

pay for the protection of the law.

Gates ajar,
The touching pathos of child-
Yood is skown ia the following:
The death of a well-known ger
tleman had called forth many ex
pressions of sympathy from
friends in the way of a profusion
of flowers in beautifal designs.
After they had been placed around
him as he lay in his casket, his
little danghter Alies, of 4 years,
was Jed by her mamma into the
room to leok upon the face of her
dead papa. She was naturally at
tracted by the flowers, and by the
designs of “The Gates Ajar.”
Her mamma told her that “the
beautiful gate” had opened, and
pape had passed through and
would never come back again.
The child looked steadily at her
papa’s face for a few momonts,
then climbed up so she could
reach over and kiss his cold lips,
saying: “Papa, dear, speak to me
and say you will come to the
beautiful gate and meot your lit
tle Alicesome day.”—Boston Cou

A sick and sorty” looking speci
‘men of humanity stepped fm
the passenger train last night ai
climbed into a giting wagon and
was driven to the ecountry. His
ggme was Samuel Neff. Heis a
man of about thirty years of age
and his parents reside in Pine
Cre k. Young Neff is just home
from Arizona, where he has been
prospecting in the mines and act
ing as a scout on a hunt of In
dians. Unfcrtunately for him he
found the murderous - red devils,
and they almost made mincemeat
of bitm '~ CORCRES
One day while riding through a
canon he was shot through the
shoulder and fell from his horse.
His assailants, finding that he was
not dead, tortured him outrage
ously. They cat gashes in his
face and all over his body, ap
plied fire to his feet and hands
and ended their brutal assaults by
scalping him. He snffered untold
agonies and prayed that death
might velieve him. Finally he
fell into a faint,and upon awaken
ing he found himself badly ecared
for in a miner’s cabin. The miner
had picked him up and earried
him a long distance on horseback.
Neff suffered weeks of exerucia
ting pain and raved with a fever,
and as soon as ha was able to tray
el he took the road for homa.
Last evening a Chronicle re
porter asked Neff how it felt to
have his hair lifted.
“It is a dreadful s2nsation,” he
said. One thinks as the skin is
being forn from his skall that his
feet are coming right ap through
his body to the top of his head.
O, it is terrible. It is so painful
that you cannot utter a ery, and
thousands of stars dance before
your eyes. You imagine red-hot
needles are darting in and out of
yourflesh, and you clasp your
‘hands so elosely that the finger
nails eat into the flesh. 1 would
rather be ran through a threshing
machine, ground up in a sausage
mill,or thrown underla locomotive,
than ever undergo such another
ordeal. It makes me shudder to
think of the tortures I have gone
throngh with and I never want to
look upon the face of another In
dian.”
“Do many persons survive the
operation?” interrupted the re
porter.
“No, I have only heard of two
or three men besides myself who
have lost their hair by the scalp
ing-knife and then lived to tell of
it.”
“Mr. Neff, do wyou think the
hair will ever grow out again?”
“Oh, nc; I shall always have a
bald spot there. The skin was
torn off for a space of four inches
square, and I am, afraid it will
never heal entirely. Evenif it does
heal over, the baré place will al
ways be so painfal that I cannot
touch it. I keep my head tied up
in cotton and sweet oil. You can
see that my beauty has been con
siderably marred. These fright
ful gashes across my face will go
with me to the grave.”

Cary's Singular Deviee ?En
livening the Village of Wequeteqnoek.
Norwircnh, June 19.—The wom
en of Wequdlgguock have been
wery peaceful since they stormed
tho old red school house in that
quaint village near the ocean, in
the Southeastern corner of Con
necticut,two years or more ago, but
the warlike spirit survives. In
that famous battle, in which Se
lectman Stanton and his minions,
five men and a boy, defended the
house against seven women armed
with axes, erowbars and hoes, the
queestion at issue was whether
the women might have a prayer
meeting and Sunday-school in the
building on Sunday. Mr, Stan
ton said they sheuld not; tha wo
men gaid they wonld. The women
won. A crowbar thrust through
the wrist, that pinned Mr. Stan.
ton to the back of the schoolhouse,
and a battle-axe stroke that fast
ened another combatant by the
hair to a door jamb on the front
of the building, helped to convince
the opposition that it was in the
wrong. There have been prayer
meetings and Sunday-schools in
the Wequetequock schoul house
| ever sinee.
Mrs. Virginia Briggs, who led
the Amazons, moved into an ad
joining town aud manages a big
farm, and one of her followers
died soon after the close of the
combat. None of the eombatants
in the battle wants to fight again.
Selectman Stanton has never been
well swee the fight. He can hoe
and do chores, bat cannot mow
and c¢hop wood. His wrist troub
les him. - He told a neighbor re
ceatly that he would not take part
in another “woman serapa fur the
hull town o’ Stonington.”
The Sanday-school scholars,
however, are eoming to the front.
Not less than three of them have
made the annual Wequetequock
school meeting so entertaining
that the legal voters evineed no
whatever measures thoy advoeated
were passed without a dissenting
voto.
Auother scholar, Miss Mary
Cary, who resides on the Wester

Wequeteqneek, and who prayed
and sang at the Sunday-school im
mediately after the school-house
skirmish, signally distinguished
herself a few days ago. 1t was a
dull forenoon, and she coveted a
little excitemeat. So she moved
all the chairs out of her pareuts’

stacked them, put some straw un

On the day at Yellow Tavers,
when the riders of tha South fol

hurtling death-storm of fifty guns,
Col. Stanley rode boot to boot
with the great cavalry leader.
As the smoke thickened and the
iron storm swept with redoubled
fury through the ranks of charg.

his stirrups and broke into the
words of his favorite sone, “The
Dew is Oa the Blossom.” The
mellow voice of the charging lead
er was the Colounel's last ‘remom
branca of tha outset.. A grape
shot tearing through his right
breast, hurled him from his sad
dle, and he made one of thousands
stretchod upon that bloody field.
Wihon noxt his eyes openad they
looked upon ths sarrouandinzs of

Learning that the young master
and foster child had fallen, “Mam

light of tho lantern, through halt
the night, her awlul track of that
terrible charge. Mangled limbs,
shattered breasts, contorted feat

paled the lantern’s feeble gleam
ab every step and brought to the
check of the negress the poaculiar
ashen hue lent by terror to the
dusky skin of her raca,
At last the right heap of the
slain was reached, and “Mammy”
drew from it the bloody form of
her young master. Tende#ly she
cared for her foster child, and

The Town Cow Discusséd
One of the most annoying things
that the eountry poople havs
trcontend with is the ordinary
towncow. When the farmer leaves
homa ha pats in the bottom of his
wagzon, or buggy, a bountiful sup
ply of hay. He arrives in town,un
loads his wife in froLt of some
store, and proceeds to hiteh his
team at somo point about the pub
lic square. No sooner than his
back is turned than a dozen starved
cows immediately surround his
velicle, and before he can say
“Jack Robinson,” with his own
mouth open,every straw in his ve
hiele has gone through the gastrie
ofilees of the aforesaid eows. We
noticad one particularly careful
fellow the other day. After hitch
ing his team, he took his hayand
carried it into the court hcuse
yard. Ho was going to have the
deadwood -on that cow and sanch
of hay, and departed for a saloon
with a grin on his face. We watched
the proecedings with considerable
interest. He was not out of sight
bofore 3 or 4 longhorns opened
the gate and proceeded to the pile
and chewed it up. Clubbing these
learned kine does no good. In faet,
they rathorenjoy the fun. You
can take an ordinary stick of cord
wood and bounce it from off their
carcas.es fifty foot and they will
tarnaround and smile at you. They
don’t even grant when you have hit
them hard enough to stave in their
