REMEDY FOR HOG CHOLERA.
c. Two weeks ago, we published an ac
count of the killing of a negro in Eman
uel county, by a young white man named
Lot Barwiok. The account was given
us by our South Bartow correspondent,
and we gave it relying upon tho correct
ness of the faets, but in the last issue of
the SwaiDsboro Itemizer the editor of
that journal says our statement was in
correct, and wo cheerfully give the ac
count of the affair as it appears in the
Itemizer, and whioh that paper endor-
soses as correot.
s been discontinued ai
ter for that point will hereafter be

take out the mail for the Sardis neigh
borhood ana carry to his store for the
convenience of the people. We regret
this discon’inuanc© exceedingly, as it
must inconvenience a considerable
number of the citizens of onr oounty.—
Burke county is already poor enough
off in the way of mail facilities now, t»nd
this discontinuance lessens it one.

The report of the prevalence of hog
cholera in this and adjoining counties,
induces us to give a remedy which we
know to be as effectual as it is simple
Give hogs effected with cholera a table
spoonful each of common commercial
mustard three mornings in succession,
mixed iu a little dampened meal.—
After a tew days, if the disease ha* not
entirely disappeared, repeat the dose.
When a hog has became so sick that it
will not eat, force the medicine down its
throat, and in nine case out of ten it can
be saved. This remedy is not only a
sovereign cure but is a preventive, as
well, and hogs which have it adininist
ered every throa or four months never
have cholera. We have known the
above remedy tried many times, and
have never known it to fall. Let our
farmers test its efficacy.

MRS. CRICHTON.
Onr information is, that George Rill
ard, a bard working negro, better known
in the county as George Dallas, some
time ago employed a young white man,
Lot Barwick by name, who, prior to
the t'rne of the shooting, bore the repu
tation pf being an inoffensive and peace
able <'iiizen, to haul a stipulated amount
of timber for him, for which ho was to
receive so much, preparatory to rafting
it; that after carrying out in good faith
about half of the coutract, the employee,
because of a team insufficient to com
plete it, (I’arwick furnished his own
team) abandoned the undertaking, and
demanded pay of his employer, for ser
vices rendered, which the negro openly
refused to recognize, as the white man
had failed to cairy out his contract;
that Barwick became incensed at this
and instituted suit in a justice court
agAinst Dallas for the amount due him,
and obtained a judgment; that on
Thursday, the 8th infef.. they had a mis
understanding, growing out of said suit,
in which, it is said, the negro was great
ly to blame, and no inconsiderable bad
feeling was engendered, but that the
parties did not ‘‘mix that on Satur
day evening, the 10th inst., Barwick,
having learned tint the negro was get
ting ready to be off to Darien with the
timber, mounted his horse and r^de
down to the river to have the timber
attached ; that after arriving there ho
began cursing Dallas who was on the
raft fixing it, to which the negro made
some insolent reply ; that Barwiok
commanded Dallas to hush Ins mouth ;
but the negro, instead of obeying the
mandate, coldly luformed the white man
that his speaking appara*us belonged to
him, and he would talk as much as be
pleased ; that Barwick 'lien told a third
party, who chanced to be standing be
tween him and the ne rn, to step to one
side which command was readily heeded
and he drew his pisto and fired at 1 al
las: and, on seeing lum fall into the
river, wheeled his horse and rode rapid
ly away.
The ball entered just below the left
eye and found lodgement smnwhere in
the cranium. When shot, Dal as ell
into the river, as stated above, and
would have drowned had he not beeu
rescued by two nth-r negroes, who were
assisting him in his w rk”. The wound
ed man though not out of danger, is
c^ng well at this writing (Wednesday
evening), and it is thought by his phy
sicians that he will recover. Last week
Sheriff Daniel and Deputy Sheriff
Kemp wont t.e arrest Barwick, but the
bird had flown to another part of the
immoral vineyard.

—Some of our exchanges located the

In acknowledging tho receipt of the
above graceful note we can but repeat
our sincere wish for the success of the
great cause to which these noble ladies
are devoting ihemselves with such
generous earnestness. It is woman’s
field of labor—she is the great sufferer by
the terrible sin of strong drink—and
armed with a consciousness of the right
of her great cause, and a true appreci
ation of the work in whioh she is engaged,
she can prove her influence stronger
than all the laws which Legislatures are
capable of enacting. Let her gentle
influence exert its saving power, and a
reform must be the result. May God
0less the righteouu work in whioh the
noble women of the Woman’s Christian
Temperanoo Union are engaged.
