Here is a friend shall figtt for thee,
Be thou a good fellow and under ban,
Where have 1 met thee ? Let me see;
But, tnsh! what matter? A mans a

So fili np thy can and clank with mo;
Out with thy troubles, thon hast my word,
Here is a friend shall fight for thee.
Thirty years man-at-arms *as I,
Trailed pike in Flanders, tough work
there, . .. .
Stormed forts, sacked cities—pass that

Alsc the women dragged by the hair.
There must be soldiers, I suppose,
So long ns kings and peoples be,
Marry, sir, ’tis a world of blows:
Bat hero’s a friend will fight for thee.
“Free lance, freebooter,” rurs the song,
Writ by some skulking clerk, I wot.
I never do peaceful burghers wrong,
Nor kiss a woman an she would not.
Never take purse but from the dead.
That are long past spending, unlike me,
Who seek not your gold, but good in
stead, ......
For here is a friend will fight for thee.
What knaves bo there? No friends of
mine.
FU parley with them. What want yo
near ?
The splash on my ruffle? Pshaw! tis

Will draw on ye, dogs, if yon dare come
near.
Have at you, then, without a word,
Man enough yet for two or three.
Old fellow, thou hast one friend—thy

For this is the friend that fights for thee.

Reuben Bullitigtou, of Dooly conn
ty, is one of tlie .best farmers in this
section, though his farming operations
are not conducted ipon au extensive
plan. What he accomplished the present

pacity of Lise pine lands of this section.

was the third year of its cultivation. Mr.
Bullin&ton informs us that he made upon

twelve gallons of syrup, twenty-five hun
dred seed cane, and three hundred pounds

Bainbridok, Ga., December 14.—Wo
have to-day to report the death of Mr. Jos.
M. Campbell, who died at his residence iu
this city yesterday. He was a justice of tbe
pence.
Truly, death has reaped a rich harvest
from onr midst during the past year. Be
ginning with a physician in the prime of
life, there was gathered in quick succession
from ns one from each of tho other pro
fessions, a minister and a lawyer, nor does
the dark list stop here; the mercantile class,
infancy, childhood, youth, old age and wo
manhood, have each sent a representative
into the unknown' beyond. Mas the end
come yet? We know not; seventeen days
of the year yst remain and many of those
who are gone sickened and died in less
time than that. Our numbers are not so
great but what we miss n good man when
Largo numbers of our citizens have been,
are gme and are going to “Kimball's
Show.” All who have boon seem well
pleased with it. It is rumored that an ef
fort is being mnde to secure the exhibition
for our spring fair and that tho Pondor-
(ons) man of the Democrat is lendingbim-
seif (he generally borrows) to the scheme.
South Florida must be filling np very
rapidly. Great numbers are passing
through here from allsectionsof tlie Union
bound for this new El Dorado. They ride
through in their wagons, carrying bag and
baggage with them, leading or driving
their stock and cattle, and each wagon
seems to have a yellow dog beneath it.
There will be lots of dogs and pcoplo in
that country if this thing doesn’t stop.
W. C. Coup is coming this way; is billed
for Christmas eve. and the juvonilo portion
of tho community are engaged in studying
tho promising posters, which are ?o much
like faith, in that they are the “evidences
of things which are not seen.”
The"Willi;mson family,” consisting of
four blind negroes, gave a musical concert
here last evening. One sang while the
other three imitated, with their months or
noses, 1 know not wnicb, a piano. The im
itation was wonderfully good.
Home time since I reported the Albany
“steamboat” snnk, hut it seems that the
captain and bis brave crew, consistingof a
mate and cook, undaunted by the threat
ened danger, took off their shoes, roiled up
their trousers, and plunging into the seeth
ing waters of the Flint, rescued the gallant
little craft from a watery grave, and now
she walks the waters like a thing of life,
and seems to dare the elements to strife.

A Capable Jury Find Mint Guilty of
Slimier—Some Stronir Bemarka or
tlio Judge-- -Hour l>oc Took the Sen
tence, Etc,
The Doc Wilson caso has at last reached
an end, at least for the present. Specula
tion was rife on Wednesday night and yes
terday morning as to the probable verdict
to he rendored by ono of the finest juries
ever empaneled in Bibb county, and tho
unnsuhl interest manifested in the case by
the general public was considerably in
creased as tlie hour drew near for tho court
to open. The idea prevailed that a mis
trial would bo the result, based on the fact
that no verdict was agreed upon the night
previous. This, however, was ail rumor
could fatten its clutches upon, os the bail
iffs obeyed the judge’s instructions to tho
letter, and not by word or sign gave the
least hint of tho deliberations of the dozen
honeat fellows locked up.
Tho court room was not so crowded as
auria{; tho trial, by reason perhaps of tho
generally accepted idea ot mistrial. Doc
came in about 9 o’clock and took his seat
with an effort at composure, but it was ev
ident that he was ill at ease. He changed
liis seat several times, and his demeanor
grew rnoro and more indicative of the anx
iety he felt. In response to the question,
“What do yon think will be the verdict?”
ho replied that he was certain of a mistrial,
and if they did find him guilty he wduld
have a new trial and carry the case to the
highest courts. He said he would stay and
die in jail—just as well die there as any
where—but they would never hang him.
It was plain that he built all his hopes on
tho mistrial. At 10:10 a. m. the jury filed
into the room and a breathless silence en
sued. Mr. Henry Cotter, the foreman,
haudod tho verdict to Solicitor Hardeman,
who read: “We, the jury, find tho prisoner
guilty, hut recommend him to tho mercy of
the court.” Doe’s color changed at this
reading, hut beyond this he betrayed to
emotion. Tho verdict was not in accord
ance with the propor form, and Judge Sim
mons directed the jury to retire and put
the verdict in better shape. The recom
mendation to mercy nmounted to nothing,
and unless tho wording was changed, tho
verdict would have stood simply: “We, tho
jury, find the prisoner guilty.”
In exactly eight minutes after the
jury returned, and again the verdict
wa3 rend, with the more formal recom
mendation that he ho imprisoned for liie.
Tho prisoner evinced uo change of featuto
at this second reading. Fach of the jury
was thon asked if tho verdict just rendered
was his decision, and affirmative responses
wore made. Judge S’mmons then directed
tho prisoner to stand np, and to the usual
question, “if he had anything to say why
sentence should not bo passed,” he replied
in a loud voice, with a ring of defiinco in
it, “Nothing, only what I done I done in
ielf-defense.”
The Judge then made the fol
lowing remarks in passing the sentence:
“An impartial jury, as good a jury 83 I ei er
saw try a case, havo decided that you did
not do it in self-defense, after hearing all
the evidence you offered. You hnve been
ably defended, as much so as any man
could be, and tho jury have convicted you
of murder. They havo been merciful to
you, because you linvo committed a co!d-
bloodod murder and ought to bo hung. And
I would taLe great plensnro in banging you
if tho jury had so said. It wo9 in the prov
ince of tbe jury to change tho soutenco of
the Inw to imprisonment for life and I can
not cumpiniu. TUey had a right to do it
aud nobody else. I suppose they consider
ed all the facts in the case, and saved your
life thereby. I therefore sentence you to
imprisonment in the penitentiary at hard
labor for the remainder of your lifo.”
There was a slight buzz of excitemont at
the conclusion of tho Judge's remarks.
They were considered sovore, but in strict
keep?.->.g with tlio expressed sentiment of
the law-abiding people of tho community.
Cae prisoner winced uuder tho strong
words, but with a powerful effort kept him
self in complete control. For the first
time, probably, during tho progress of tho
trial, he toil his hope of release losing its
hold.
Colonel Sam Hail immediately gave
notice of a motion for a new trial. The
pri^onor was shortly afterward removed to
tho jail, and for some time, at toast, Doe
Wilson will bo lost sight of. It is said that
bis colored friends havo raised by contri
butions, fairs, festivals, etc., about eight
hundred doltats for counsel fees, and it is
claimed they will raiso an equal sum, it
necoisary, to defray tlie expenses of a new
trial.
