—Alaster Hughes Walton, son of
('apt. W. F. Walton, of this"county,
has been appointed through recom

to a cadetship in the Georgia Alili-
tary Academy. The appointment
was unsolicited and unexpected by
Air. Walton, whose merits for tin*
position were well known to Air.
Wimberly, as they are to all of bis
numerous friends, who will be glad
to hear of the finuoring distinction
that lias been accorded him. In
addition to the thorough military
course taught hi this aehdemy,
scientific, electrical and commercial
courses, including commercial law
are taught in the latter branch.—
Diplomas are issued the same as in
colleges.
—A couple of young men of our
town, both of “the art preservative,”
went to the country some weeks ago
and purchased a worthless pointer
dog from a litle darky whom tl»ey
met in the road. They plumed
themselves on their trade for only
a few moments, as they thought of
the warm reception that “purp”
would get at either of their homes.
In thiadilemma they put the dog to
board At gentleman’s, who finding
the (logi dangerous only to stray hen
fruit, pintl a darky 10 cents to kill
him. Now the boys decline to pay
board unless their dog is forthcom
ing. As Die case involves some
fine pointsVwe expect an elaborate
opinion when it reaches the Su
preme Court.
—Rev. F. A. Rennet, colored, who
is in jail charged with burglary in
the night, made an attempt to
breakout a few evenings ago, and
came near succeeding. He bud
pulled off a facing from one oftlie
windows, and had loosed one end of
an iron bar some two or three feet
long, and was in a fair way to get
off the other end when lie was dis
covered, and a stop put to his ope
rations. This would have given
him an effective •irstrument to
work with when lie would soon
have liberated not only himself but
all the other prisoners. The fact
is, the jail is nothing more than an
old trap in which a sharp cracks
man wouldn’t stay long enough to
get breakfast.
Air. John I*. Jones, son of Judge
J. B. Jones, died at bis home near
Alidville, this county, of conjestive
cliill, on Tuesday evening last, aged
about 21 years.
Death is sad at any period of life,
but bow much sadder when the
grim reaper thrusts in his syeh* and
gathers in the young. Air. Jones
had hut just stepped upon the stage
of action, and but a few days ago
lie bid fair to live a long life of
usefulness, but the edict went forth
and he withered in his lyonng man
hood before the pale Destroyer.—
Our sympathies are tendered tlie
family in this their hour of sad be
reavement.

in aid of the Alethoilist pastor, Rev.
B. F. Breedlove, who is about to
leave to attend Conference. At an
early hour thespledid parlor of Mrs.
Munnerlyn was filled with an elite,
intelligent and appreciative audi
ence, all awaiting the splendid treat
which every one anticipated was
in store. They were not disap
pointed, as the following rieli pro

would rival the great stage singers
of the day. Airs. Munnerlyn touch*

gers, while Judge Perry draws the
sweet sounds of concord from the
violin with a scientific hand. The
rendering of“Slmmus O’Brien” by
Prof. Rodgers was done in a man

and congratulations of the audi
ence. The concert over, a repast
of delicacies was spread, and in the
enjoyment of the good things, the

—The gunning sport of the sea
son has opened. Col. S. J. Bell and
Dr. l'olhill have been running
Briar creek for ducks, and have
usually returned to their lonesome
wives and children with “fisher
man’s luck.” A certain gentleman,
however, of mature age and delibe
ration, disgusted tit the non-success
of practiced sportsmen, decided to
show them bow to bag the game.
Accordingly lie procured a fine
breech-loader, filled his belt with
shells and started with it fine point
er on a bird hunt. “Aly dear,” said
lie to bis wife as he left, “I’ll show
these boys bow Ao kill the birds.”
To the fieltTiHLYVent, and lus point
er came down. rWith both barrels
on the cock he nvontTh^ and rais
ed a magnificent covey. Bang,
bang, went both barrels, but not a
feather floated from the fleeing
birds. Now came trouble. He was
unsophisticated! and did not know
how to manipulate the machine,
lit* tried every idea which the brain
of an experienced machinist could
suggest to “unbrench the blamed
thing,” lie beat it over the fence,
but all to no purpose—lie could not
relieve the gun of the discharged
shells, or reload it, and finally re
turned without being able to re
charge. Hi* informed his wife
upon his return, that the machinery
of the gun wouldn’t work, and he
had to come homo to repair it.
CoMMUHieaint,
AIr. Editor: With all due res
pect for the opinions of those who
may differ with me in regard to the
confusion arising from adopting the
standard time, 1 must say that J
cannot see why any such should
arise. I can see that confusion
must la* the result of our keeping
sun time and the R. It’s, standard
time. Why not all keep the stand
ard? If there be !12 minutes (infer
ence between the two, is it not
easier for traders and schools to
begin !12 minutes sooner, than that
wo should be bothered with two
times. Wlien schools begin at 7 a.
in., let them begin at 28 minutes
after <> a. m. This is easy enough
done, besides there can be no eon-
