Clkvxland Advertiser:
of tlie 6th inftaft, Mr. M.
was returning to this pli
United NUtm Bail, from __
C., when, about one and a quarter miles
from Cleveland, his horse fell upon his
thigh, breaking the bona a little above the

brought to his (Bell’a) house, where he is

Albany Newt and Advertiser: Yes-
terday morning Dan Norm, a colored
fanner from Terrell county, came to town
with a bale of cotton, which be stored
with Messrs. K. aud A. F. Tift * ^o-» in
structing them to sell it immediately. It
seems that Dan was accompanied to town
by a colored brother, one John Watkins,
who was with him when lie delivered the
cotton and heard him request its immedi
ate sale. John evidently kept puc eye on
Dan and the other on the warehousemen,
and about 4 o’clock In the afternoon he
gave hla friend the dodge and went to the
office of the warehouse and inquired if
that btld ef cotton had been sold. Upon
receiving information that it had been dis
posed, he demanded the money. The
cashier asked if bis name was Dan Nor
ris, to which Um gay deceiver promptly
replied in the affirmative. Therefore the
amount realised from the sale of the cot
ton, $50, was paldofer.lo.him, and he re
ceipted for the same, signing his name as
Dun Norris. In course of half an hour,
DanNonris, the real owner of the .cotton,
applied for bis money, wnen, Us his utter
astonishment, he was informed that it
had already been collected. Explana
tions followed which convinced the cash
ier and Dan both that they had had a
sharp trick played on them, and they at
once set out in search "of John Watkins.
They seon found him, and recovered all
the money except ten cents, which lie had
spent for luncheon. He was not arrested,
but was permitted, strange to say, to go
bis way unmolested.

Columbus Tinus: Last night we
learne d that six men have been arrested for
the shooting ot Mr. Ett. Jone.s, near But
ler, on last Friday night. Four’of them
are now tn jail, two having been released.
We understand that one of the men con
fined has ‘turned State's evidence' against
the other parties. The house to which
they set fire was a school house, and not
an out house, as at first reported. It
seems that in the selection pf a teacher, a
difference arose between these parties and
Mr. Jones, but Mr. Jones finally secured
the person for * teacher whom he desired.
This angered the wtbm. parties, and they
set to the bouse. We arc ibfdn2*“
that Mr. Jones aaw them when they com
mitted the act. A man named Hobbs is
said to be the person who d|d the shoot

ILWinton Appeal: Mr. C. It. Hodges,
the former editor of this paper, with his

Having employed Mr. Jobu A. Perry, a
'young man from Macon, to take charge of
. the Herald office, we take this method of

Co. rMinis Times: We are informed
that tlie first shipment of iron, consisting
of five carloads, has been received for the
Talbot ton branch railroad. It has been
decided to make the road a broad gauge.
We tniiik Hus a wise step, as it connect*-
with (he Southwestern, and a change ol
cars will be avoided. It looks as though |
e I topic ol that section are determined
to-have a railroad, and we dxpeet to hear
that Talbolton Is a real live “railroad
town.”
Athens Banner: We are informed that
a day or two since the Right Rev. Bishop
Gross sent $250 to the Catholics of Ath
ens, to aid in the erection of their new
church. Such liberality on the part of the
reverend gentleman is very commendable,
and is highly appreciated, not only ly tbo
members of the church, but by the citi
zens of Athens generally.
Wabrkxton Clipper: One thing
pleases us very much. Whilst we have
prospered, we have not done so at the ex
pense of the printer; for they have pros
pered, too. Mr. Veronee is running the
official organ of Columbia county and Mr.
Miluer has saved money enough to enable
him to retire to a farm.
Atlanta Post-Appeal: For some
time past Mr. J. C. Kimball baa been
greatly annoyed by x number of street
gamins of the “hoodlum” persuasion who
have been helping themselves to his coal.
For awhile the boys were cautious in their
approaches, but they made themselves felt
even when they were not seen and heard.
Mr. Kimball stood it until forbearance
ceased to be a virtue, and then he had a
gang of the juveniles arrested. Just at
this point the trouble comes in. Mr.
Kimball discovered to his surprise, when
he called in tlje aid of the law; that he was
powerless In ' the matter -of punishing
the Juvenile depredators because they were
under the age which the law fixes as
the I imit of responsibility for crime. The
boys found this out, and saw that they
had as good a thlug as they wanted.
They are now engaged in helping them
selves openly to Kimball’s coal and the
amount they carry off every day is consid
erable. Mr. Kimball is puzzled over tbe
situation, but he thinks lie will prove
equal to tlie emergency. He thinks of
swooping down on the “hoodlums” at
some unexpected moment and bambast-
ing them with a cowhide or tough hicko
ry switch. At present the boys laugh at
hint and fill their sacks with coal right
nnder bis nose. This is provoking, to say
the least.
Sakderbville is rapidly filling np
with new citizens, who are seeking the
advantages of the new public school sys
tem recently organized there.
The sympathizers with the Emerald
Isle in its present troubles have organ
ized a land league in Savannah, with Mr.
M. S. Doyle president.
Mn. John W. Brooks, of Spalding
county, was adjudged a lunatic and will
be sent to the insane asylum.
The Athens Banner says that Rev. John
Calvin Jcbnson, ofthat city, might he re

cently married his one hundred and thir
ty-eighth couple.
Tiie city of Savannah is in the toils of
an approaching city election. Two tick
ets, embracing some of the best citizens
and headed, respectively, by Mayor
Wheaton, the present incumbent, and D.
G. Purse, who has been for some time a
member of the board of aldermen. They

strictly enforced. Wo learn that a fund is
being raised for the purpose of preventing
illegal voting at the polls on Tuesday
next, aud that, a reward of $500 will be
offered for the apprehension, with proof to
convict, of any person attempting to vote
negroes illegally.
Judge Howell Cobb, of Athens, is
TJuvSlfl njmrira of letters to tlie Christian
of the negro.” In speaking of the needs
of tbe South, he says: “Another great
want of the South is, that tbe North learn
to believe, and act upon the belief, that
God reigns directly over the South as well
as the Nortii. The North must be con
vinced that the South is not devoid of in-,
telligent conscience and is not abandoned
by God.”
Augusta News: The Georgia railroad
dividend recently declared is now paya
ble and payments were made at tbe
bank yesterday by Cashier Geo. P. Butler.
Walk up, gentlemen, there is no danger
from a fun on the bank, for the Georgia
railroad is solid. Country stockholders
should not wait till tbe May convention,
but come down now, and make two trips.
A visit to Augusta will help you at this
season of the year.
Spabta Ishmaeliie: It would be better
to hare no elections at all than to have
corrupt ones. We call npon all our read
ers to stand up for the purity of the ballot-
box, and to snstain the laws which are
provided for securing that end. The com
mon good demands it.
Rev. B. W. Kits'.—Dawson Journal:

He is a courteous, cultivated, and refined
Christian gentleman.
Dalton Citizen: Occasionally the
quiet community of Dalton is shocked by
the details of eome sad: accident. Last
Thursday Mn. R. B. Springfield, who
lives on Depot street, was terribly gored
by an infuriated cow. The cow had been
chasing a dog around tbe lot. and Mrs.
Springfield went out to cail the dog
away, when the cow turned upon the lady,
lifting her upon her horns and goring her
in a dreadful manner. The shrieks of
the lady brought assistance, but when
cued from the inAiriated animal the waa

was summoned, and upon examination of
tlie injuries it was found that one of tbe
cow’s boras had entered her side, inflict
ing a ghastly wound. Mr. S. is in a criti
cal condition. - .
Dr. Lipscomb.—Athens Banner: This

The Atlanta Post-Appeal makea the
following suggaation to circumvent the
coal dealers and present famine:
A gentleman who claims to be well
potted informs ns that no necessity exists
for psyhi h fllper ton for anthracite coal
in Atlanta. He says that it selUinXew
York In the streamer at from $2.50 to $2.T5
a ton In Ms of 2,000 tons. By large sloop
loads to Savannah the freight would be
perhaps $t per ton; by railroad to Atlanta
it wonld cost another dollar; then say a
dollar and a half for handbag,and it could
be sold here at $7.60 a ton. How would
it do to get up a syndicate and control
this matter?
Hawkinsvillx Dispatch: There is .
general complaint os tbe part ol plasters, uoer of the North and South road on this
d farmers as to a lack of labor. Tim
colored people, who ccnstitute two-thirds
or more of the agricultural population,
are slow about making contracts for tbe
year, and many farmers are unable to get
even plow bands. There seems to be a
general desire among tbe freedmen to
avoid yearly contracts, and inaugurate a
day-labor system. Every freedroan who
can obtain an acre of land aud a cabin of
liis ovu, thinks he can earn more money
and have an easier time by working for
daily wages, and picking upi odd jobs.
The farmere of this section say they can
not, at the ruling prices of cotton and
provisions, afford to pay hands more than
one hundred and ten to one hundred and
thirty dollars per year, with the usual ra
tions. Some of the farmers declare that
these wages, if honestly and justly paid,
will leave the fanner no profit on his crop
at the end of tbe year.

The Israelites.—Columbus Times
In all my experience among the poor, ex
tending back over fifty years, I have never
had an application for charity from an
Israelite. Last week, when wood for the
poor was being distributed, and when peo
ple of both races and of all denominations
were clamoring for their share, the Jews
stood entirely aloof. They sometimes
give me money tor the poor, but never ask
charity themselves. If there are needy
ones among them they are provided for by
tbeir own brethren. I leave it to others to
account for these facts. They are worthy
of serious consideration, and are highly
creditable to the Jews.

Columbus Enquirer: We learn that Mr.
Joseph W. Riggers had themisfortuue a
few nights since to lose ids gin house by

was also burued. This, according to our
count, is forty-one gin houses that have
been burned this season.

Dawson Journal: Governor Colquitt

Persy Home Journal: Many of our

prise of both the informed and the inform

Toe Meriwether Vinditator Is in earn
est about a railroad. Tbe editor recant ly
made a pilgrimage to Columbus tn that
interest. He says: “Modi haring been
said recently respecting the cost, per nfile
of constructing a narrow gauge railroad,
the writer, white in Columbus last week,
interviewed the superintendent and end
point. Mr. Gray, the very accommoda
ting superintendent, at our request, reck
oned up tbe cost very carefully. Item by
item, aud assured us tbe cost of grading
tbe road and purchasing aud putting
down the iron wonld not exceed $5,000
per mile. This equips the road ready for
tbe cars. The distance from Greenville
to Hood on a straight line is less than 14
miles, so that $80,000 will construct the
road.- The present company will put thp
cars on it. If we can raise half of the
$80,000, we were assured in Columbus
that we should have a road. What think
our people of the matter ?
Atlanta Phonograph: Cheap coal is
a problem in which tbe future of Atlanta
is vitally, interested. The high price of
coal not only paralyses our manufactur
ing interests, and is the means of great
expense to our people as well as great
suffering to tlie poor, but it will, if con
tinued, compel many of our laboring
class to seek new homes where they can
find fire. This matter touches on the ne
cessities of life.
Augusta News: One hundred shares
of Sibley Mills stock sold to-day at $11

The Population of the State.—
Atlanta Constitution: The Constitution
of yesterday contained a statement of the
population in each county, to which was
appended Iho total footings for the pur
pose of comparing them with those of
1870. The population, of the State in
1870 was 1,184,100; in 1880 the grand to
tal was 1,638,983—a gain of 354,874 or
20.98 per cent. Tbe white copulation in
1870 was 038,926; iu 1680 it was 814,218—
a gain of175,292, or 27.45 per cent. The
colored population in 1870 was 545,142; in
ISSOit was 724,705—again of 170,023, or
32.05. The slight discrepancy in these
figures is explained in the decrease of the
Indian population. In 1S70 the number
of males was 578,034; the number of fe
males 005,154—a difference of 20,200 fie
males. In 1SS0 the males numbered
701,152, and the females 777,831—a differ
ence of 10,070 lemaies. The gain in
males is probably accounted for by the ab
sence of war during tho past teu years.
The fore'.gn-bom population in 1870
was 11,127; in 1880 it had fallen to 10,310
—a fact difficult to account for. Tbo for
eign population of Chatham county has
fallen irorn 3,071 to 3,270, while that of
Fulton has risen from 1,090 to 1,434.
Thu changes in the other counties were
very slight, but nearly all show small
losses in tills respect. Augusta lias six
more foreigu bom people than site had
ten years ago, whilo Macon lias lost 22,
and Columbus 37. Towns, Echols, Ir
win and Haralson counties do not coutaiu
a sir.glo foreign-bom inhabitant; Schley
lias but one, and White, Union and Butts
have two each. The most populous coun
ties of the State are: Fulton 40,120,
Chatham 44,994, Richmond 34,009, Bibb
27,140, Burke 27,127, Floyd 24,418, Hous

There is great suffering among many of
our colored population, owing to the ter
rible weather. The habitations of these
poor creatures are uncomfortable and ex
posed, they have not sufficient clothing,
and many are dependent on what they
can earn one day to support tbeir fami
lies the next. They were not able to get
oat during tlie freezing weather, and we
hear of many who are on tlie verge of
starvation. Our people should search
ont the most destitute cases an>l relieve
them.

At Chrlet Episcopal Church last night,
wes gathered one of the .largest, as well
as the most fashionable, crowds that have
ever graced any public gathering to wit
ness the marriage of Harry 8. Edwards,
Esq., the local editj; of tbe Telegraph
and Messenger, to Miss Roxie Lane,
daughter of Hon. A. J. Lane, of this city.
The churdi had not yet thrown,of? ns
Christmas decorations. Garlands of ever
green graced every portion of the building
and appropriate mottoes were to be seen
on every hand. The decorations were the
result of elegant taste and diligent hands.
The gas jet star shone oat with exceeding
brilliancy over the chancel, in the center
of which waa suspended tbe monogram,
“E. and L.,” in wax candles, presenting
a moat attractive appearance.
The church was filled, both upper and
lower floors, to its utmost capacity, same
having reached the church before seven
o'clock. By eight, everybody was in anx
ious expectancy, and the door was watch
ed with eager eyes. At half past eight
o'clock, the skillful hands of Arthur Wood
pealed forth tbe joyous notes of tho wed
ding march. Simultaneously the following
gentlemen as ushers marched in two by
two, taking position Just outside the chan
cel : Messrs. Cooper Winn, Arthur Board-
man, It. W. Patterson, R. 4. Saulsbury,
Joseph Bond, andE.M. Davis.
These were soon followed In measured
step by the following attendants, filing to
the right and left: N. M. Solomon aud
Miss Etta Clisbjf W. P. Edwards and
Miss Clara Nutting, W. H. Woodson and
Miss Georgia Tracy, J. F. Iverson and
Miss Florine Dunlap, A* D. Schofield and
Miss Nettie Dunlap, John YanSyckleand

Miss Jennie Hammond, of Atlanta; C.
E. Armstrong and Miss Minnie Fiudley,
Floyd Ross and Miss Mattie Ruan,Charley
Ross and Miss Fannie Grier, John Bol-
fouiliet and Miss Cora Nutting.
These were followed by Hon. A. J
Lane, bearing upon his arm Miss Roxie
Lane, the bride. Mr. Willis Sparks, tho
bridegroom’s next friend, and Miss Lizzie
Plant, the bride’s next friend, and Hany
S. Edwards, the groom, completed the
charming tableaux, with ltuv. Otis GJaze-
brook behind the chauccl railing. .
In_a strong, clear voice, the minister
pronounced the beautiful marriage cere
mony of the Episcopal church, and then
in the most solemn manner pronounced
the word that made the happy twain one
indissolubly, save by the haud of death
The blessing given, and the gay cortege of
beauty and loveliness, marcbod out of tbe
church, keeping step with tho ringing
notes of tho “Gate City Guard’s March,'
as played by Mr. Wood.
The invited guests repaired to tho resi
dence of Colonel Lane, on Tattnall square,
where merry-making ruled tbe hour until
the summons called to the dining-room,
where was spread a table of luxuries and
viands sufficient to have feasted twice the
number who partook.
Tbe parting hour came at last, aud one
by one the guests gave blessings and
adieus to the happy pair and generous
Dost.

There were three marriage licenses issued
yesterday, but the names of the parties
could sot be entrusted to us. Like Mother
Eve, that was the very tree "we wanted to
pluck from. But, alasl that was Tor-
bidden. We will have our revenge,- never
theless. We will find out some of these
days.
There were issued during the year 1880
340 marriage licenses. Out of this num
ber 210 were for colored and 130 for white
couples. During this month, np to date,
eight licenses have been issued, five for
wliite and three for colored.
Tbe net income amounted to $780. It
1881 should prove a prosperous year, a
wonderful Improvement Is anticipated in
this department.' We are instructed to
announce that there will he no reduction

Editors Telegraph and Messenger: —
Your editorial in to-day’s issue, headed
“Georgia’s Military Slighted,” does injus
tice, not only to the inaugural committee
of Washington City, but to our Adjutant
General. r .
If you had read more carefully the - ac
count of tbe meeting of that committee, as
published in tbe Washington Post, you
would havo observed that tbe chairman
did not announce thal“all the military or
ganizations of the country had been in
vited to be preseot on March 4tfa, with
tbe exception of Georgia and Alabama.”
l’lie corresponding secretary merely stated
that invitations had been issued to ail
whose names had been received up to
that time, and that lie had heard from
all the States except Georgia andAlabama.
The facts are that lie had addressed a
letter seveial weeks ago to - the Adjutant
General of Georgia, as to the like officers
of other States, asking the names of miti-
tary organizations in the State. Very few
of our military organizations have found
it worth while to make their annual le-
turns provided for by law for several
years past, lienee there was no official
data from which such list could be imme
diately furnished, but the Adjutant Geu
eral proceeded at ouco by correspondence
to secure as complete a list as possible
snd forwarded it a week ago to tlie com
mittee with au explanation of tho delay.
Iu regard to tho statement that that offi
cer “has nothing else to do but to make
out lists,” it may simply be said that liis
duties in connection with the public
property and routine work of the execu
tive office are more various and quite as
onerous as those of any other officer in tlie
public service, and tho military work
(which involves a great deal more, by the
way, than “sending out lists.”) is a volun
tary addeuda for which he receives no
compensation whatever.
Among his other duties is the issuing of
commissions to civil officers, and if you
will reflect that within ten days pail
nearly three thousand civil officers have
been elected in the State, each of whom
is anxious for his commission, you can
appreciate the strain ou the clerical force
in the executive office of work more im
portant to be done, perhaps, than “send
ing out lists.”
At auy rate the invitations to partici
pate in the inaugural ceremonies will
probably reach the State in a few days.
°f J .am sure you would not
do iuteutional injustice, I trust you will
correct the errors in your article m ac
cordance with the above facts.

That Rower
There is not a more unseemly sight in
Macon than the deep ravine washed by
the emptyings of the sewer between the
courthouse and the Stubblefield House.
All tbe filth and garbage from College
Hill and along 1'oplar street is carried by
the system of sewerago into the main
sewer under Mulberry street and empties
into this ravine. The stench in the sum
mer at time3 is almost unbearable. When
a heavy rain (ails the water rushes through
and out of this sewer with such
force that it has made quite a ba
sin and thereby retains the re
fuse that would otherwise be washed
away. The attention of tbe authorities
have often been called to it, but the city
council has always plead poverty. Now,
however, there is some hope of having
tlie sewer extended through to Walnut
street. ' '
The city lias made a proposition to the
county that if the county will build the
sewer from Mulberry street to tbe alley—
210 feet—which is the extent of the court
house lot, the city will build the remain
der. It is thought that it can be done, so
far as the county.is concerned, for $1,000.
Tliis matter will be urged upon tbo at
tention of the new board of county com
missioners at the proper time. Surely
the property holders on that square, who
pay more than this amount into the treas
ury every year, are entitled to some con
sideration.
Another Improvement.
The contractor who Is to erect tho new
warehouse for Messrs. Coleman A New
som, on Poplar street, is now making
ready to commence operations. Tlie sand
is already delivered and the brick will be
witbin a abort time. We have already
spoken of this building, but are glad to
See that work is being commenced at once
The building will have a front on Poplar
street ofllO feet and will extend back to
the alley, 210 feet. It will be a
spacious and roomy establishment.
An elegant storeroom will be attached
to it, for the accommodation of the groce
ry and provision traffic of this substantial
firm. It will be all complete for next
season’s crop.
In due course of time all the old rook
eries on that square will be removed and
supplanted by commodious storerooms by
the enterprising owner of the property,
Frank Gunn, Esq., of Houston county. It
will add much to tlie appearance ofthat
portion of the city. ■ •
Far Aaother Tear.
In conversation with some of our farm
er friends on yesterday, we learned that
tlie re was a scarcity of field hands. Some
planters have all they want, however.
The deficiency is not caused by immigra
tion elsewhere, but arises from sn indis
position upon the part of laborers to con
tract for the year. They prefer securing
a cabin and becoming day laborers.
This method will seriottsiy affect farm-
ing operation* during the year, and cause
great damage to the crop aud loss to the
formers, as It has been this year. Just
when work is needed most may be a time
when Sambo don’t feel inclined to work.
Huadreda of bales of cotum.iu Georgia
have been lost just for tlie want of cotton-

price paid for bands for the year is $3 per

respect unwittingly. The law has not
’beetfEroughTto’ - nie~cofiiidet'atIon oftha
masses as it ought to be, and known
violators have .not been made to feel tlie
penaltlesribr dlsregardingthe provisions of
the act.
The whole State is waking up to the
importance of tills question, and a general
clamor is made for a strict registration
law. Such au influence will be brought
to bear npon tlie Legislature when it as
sembles in July, that they will be com
pelled to do something to rectify the
wrong which is being done to the real
taxpayers of tlie State. ■<
If a man desires to sharfe the protection
and enjoy the blessings which good gov
ernment brings, and to exercise the elect
ive franchise, he ought to be willing to
assist in keeping up that government.
This is but reasonable, and the authorities,
in order to properly distribute this bur
den and to enable ail men to discharge
that .obligation, have enacted a sys
tem of taxation. All arerequired to meet
this assessment. * o
The law provides that no one shall ex
ercise the right of voting in any election
until he has paid all the taxes which he
has had an opportunity to pay. If any
man votes without complying with this
requirement, he is guilty of violation of
the law and is subject to its penalties.
There seems to be a misapprehension in
the minds of many. They think it is
only tlie poll lax tiiat is required. But
the law says all taxes of whatever kind.
Some excellent men, who are over age
and not subject to poll tax, have gone for
ward and voted, witir no intention of
evading the law, but who are in arrears
for, their State and county taxes and are
thus guilty of violating tlie law.
To show the extent to which this mat
ter has been carried we called upon our
efficient tax collector on yesterday who
furnished us with the following facts:
In the year 1878, taxes were due in
Bibb county from 5,3S6 persons. The
tax collector, after persistent effort, suc
ceeded in collecting the taxes from 2,125,
leaving 3,261 as defaulters.
fn 1879, there were 5,853 persons sub
ject to taxation; out ot this number Mr.
Peters collected the taxes from 2,218,
leaving 3,035 from whom no taxes were
received.
Ia 1SS0 there were tbe namc3 ol 5,694
on the lax books subject to taxation. Up
to date the collecter has only received
the taxes of 2,100 persons, leaving 3,594
whoso taxes are yet due. Much of this of
course will yet be collected.
If this showing does not appeal in the
strongest terms for relief iu behalf of
those who are burdened with the support
of our county government, then we fail
utterly to comprehend the situation.-
No wonder that our county roads and
»rid are nnt in better keeping. No
wonder that there is a scarcity of public
buildings. No wonder that our public
schools languish, and many children
forced to remain in ignorance. Tho only
wonder is that our county officials have
been able to do well as they have. With
the limited amount of means at their
mand can it be any better unless a change
is made? Tho only remedy in sight is a
thorough registration law. Letushaveit.
