Sudden Death— About 1 o’clock
yesterday evening Mrs. O’Shields dropped
dead at her home on Foundry street. For
sometime past she has been suffering
from heart disease, and early y esterday
morning was greatly troubled with acute
pains around the heart. About 12 o’clock
she began preparing dinner, and while
thus engaged went into the yard for an
armful of wood. While picking up the
wood she suddenly iell to the ground and
died within a few minutes. Her fall was
seen by her husband, wlm carried her into
the house and caused physicians to be
summoned, but they were uuable to save
her. Mrs. O’Shiclds was about sixty
years of age and was highly esteemed by
all who knew her.
Waycross Reporter: A countryman
brought a donkey to town ono day last
week, aud tied him in front of a store
where there is a musical clerk. The
donkey listened quietly to the alleged
music for awhile, but as it waxed stronger
and stronger, his soul was stirred to its
utmost depths; he seemed to recognize the
tuue as it floated out on tho chili Decem
ber air, aud scenes of his childhood
floated before his vision. Opening bis
mouth ho gave way to a wild hurst of
song which, Joining with the notes of the
store clerk, created such a harmony as is
seldom beard, except by blending a steam
whittle with the buzz of a circular saw.
A darky passing by remarked: “Dat urns'

Evening News: Augusta was visited
last night, or lather at 1 o’clock this morn
ing, by a very destructive tire, which, but
for the tireless work and quick response
of our gallant firemen, would have laid
one of the principal aud central blocks of
the city in oslics. At that early hour of
the morning the alarm sounded, aud the
department found the rear of the store oc
cupied by Burma & Uro.,on South Broad,
first below Ninth street, in flames, which
were spreading rapidly in a large stock of
hay. The origin of tiic fire was located
here, but the cause is uukuown, unless, as
Is supposed, the fire caught from a stove.
The Josses fall chiefly ou Mrs. D’Anlig-

THE UPS OX HUUDEB8.
Dock Miller Fussily Slabs Hie Hair
Brother.
Our pres* dispatches in yesterday’s issue
naMiii a ebort account of tho fatal
stabbing cf Mr. Eb Jackson by Mr. Dock
Miller, erroneously printed os Wilson, on
Saturday night last. From onr correspon
dent we learn additional particulars. The
affair occurred at Delray, a little place in
Upson county. Jackson bad a stalk of su
gar cane nnder bis arm, and, in turning
around, aocidently, it is said, straok his
half-brother, Dock Miller, in the face.
This provoked Miller, wbo made several
threats to kill Jackson, and these threats
caused a passage of hot words between
them, and Miller sncceeded in stabbing his
antagonist in several places, two of tlio
stabs being sufficiently sovero to prodace
death. One cut was in the heart and the
other in the brain.
Whisky was the cause of tho trouble.
Only an hour or so before James Harris
was fatally cat by Brad Ferguson.
In addition to the above wo learn that
the store of Messrs. F. T. Word * Bro., of
the same county, was robbed a few nights
ago of about $275.
A Oeorala Jidce’s cnarge.
Apropos of Jndge Simmons’ remarks in
pasring sentence in a recent case, which
have been so generally read, we tako from
Harper’s Drawer a charge said to have been
made by a judge in Georgia:
Judge was noted for tho way he got
mixed in his charges to tbe jury. On one
occasion a case was tried beforo him, tho
joints of which may be brifly stated thus:
Smith brought suit against Jones upon a
promissory note given for a horse. Jones’
defense was a failure of consideration,
he averring that at tbe time of the purchaso
the horse had the glanders, of which ho
died, and that Smith knew it. Smith re
plied that tbe horse did not have the glan
ders, bnt tho distemper, and that Jor.es
knew it when he bought.
The judge charged the jury: “Gentlemen
of the jury, pay attention to the charge of
the court. You have already made one
mistrial of this cose because you did not
pay attention to tbe charge ot tbe court,
and I don’t want yon to Jo so 8gain. I in
tend to make it so clear to you this time
that you cannot possibly make a mistake.
Tbe suit is upon a note given for a horse. I
hope yon understand that. Now, if you
And that at the ti i e of tho sale Smith had
the glanders and Jones knew it, then Smith
cannot possibly recover. Flint is clear,
gentlemen. I will state it again. If you
find that at the sale Jonos had tho distem
per, and Smith know it, then Smith cannot
po-sibly recover. But, gentleman, I will
state it a third time so that you cannot pos
sible moke a mistake. If at tbe time of
tho sale Smith had the glanders, and Jones
had tbe distemper, and tho horse knew it,
then neither Smith, Jones nor the horse
can recover. Let the record be given to
the jury.
A Memorable Exhumation.—As a
newspaper correspondent I had occasion
to visit tbe old Capitol prison in Wash
ington, in February, lSGfl, to witness tho
exhumation and rendition to their re
spective relatives and friends of tbe re
mains of tbe cousplratois in the Lincoln
assassination. President Johnson was
about to go out of office, and he issued an
order permittiug Christian burials to the
bodies of the persons implicated m to
death of Lincoln—Booth, Mrs. Surratt,
Atzsrodt, Payne and Herald. They had
been buried iu ammunition boxes of com

Sbipton waa my destination, to fulfill a
long standing engagement to visit my
friend, Mr. Wm. Day, and In two minutes
the white pony was bowling along the
dusty Wiltshire road.
Need it be said that tbe first question
was, “How’s the horse?” and that the
horse in question was none other than the
famous Foxball?
“Very well, indeed, thank you, sir—I
‘do’ him,” my driver responded, with ex
cusable pride.
“Aud you saw him win his races, Isup-
^“Yes, indeed, I did, sir 1" is the reply.
The pleasant dinner, at which my host’s
wife and his three daughters were pres
ent, need not bo lingered over. The cloth
removed and the ladles gone, we draw
round to the fire, and, aa a matter of
course, discussed that “noble animal,”
to horse. . _
«y ou are looking at the pictures, I see,”
William Day observes. “That is Cruci
fix. That is Crucifix again. TheD, the
other side is Promised Land. That is a
horse called Wisdom, painted by Abra
ham Cooper, and the mare and foal are
by Ferneley, who was considered a won
derfuUy clever man m fas day.”
“Good horses, all of them. Wbat do
you think the best you ever knew?” I
a-ked.
“This one—Foxball,” his trainer re-
ilics; “and I remember Bay Middleton,
.Menipotentiuy and West Australian,
aud 1 don’t think one of them could have
beaten Foxliall.”
“You can’t have felt quite comfortable
about the Cambridgeshire, though—a
three-year old with nine stone on his
back up that hill, and with a more than
respectable field to beat, too ?’’
“1 knew what a good horse be was, and
was tolerably certain about it.”
“Was it true that Walts hit tbe bona
such a sounding stroke that be frightened
Lucy Glitters and made her swerve on to
Tristan—I have seen that stated?” I in
ter! upted to inquire.
• Not true at all, I should say,” William
Day answers. “I do not believe the boy
hit biin once. I did not see it, and there
vas certainly no mark of it on the horse,
nothing but a touch of tbe spurs—natural
ly, after such a close finish. Watts flour
ished his whip about, but did not use it.”
“What did you do with tho horse be
tween the Ccsarewitch and Cambridge
shire? 1 am curious to know, for the
preparation for a mile, and for a two-
mile-aud-a-quartcr race must be so differ
ent.”
“Well, we came back from Newmarket
on Friday and walked on Saturday. On
Sunday 1 never tako my horses out, as you
know. He did a canter on Monday, half
speed gallops on Tuesday and Wednesday
on Thursday and Saturday I scut him
along a tiJie and a quarter at his be:t
speed, and he galloped steadily the dis
tance ou Friday. There was not much
time, you see; but I knew he could staud
os much work as was good for him—no
fear of that.”
S1‘ ‘Of course; he’s at bis best now?”
“Yes, as you will see to-morrow. It
would uot do to let him down too sud
denly. He’s thoroughly fit, and that for
the first lime in his life. When he went
to run for tbe Grand Duke Michael, an
authority on training, or some one who Is
supposed to be one, complimented me on
his condition, though I did not think he
was then lit, and said he would be much
improved by the Cesarewitch. When he
was being saddled for that race my friend
ciuic up and thought he was a bit fin
drawn and over done. ‘He’ll be fin;
drawn by the Cambridgeshire,’I told hii
and ‘Ah, then, you’ll make a mess of it)
he said. Well, he won the Ccsarewitch,
and before the Cambridgeshire my friend
arrived to look him over, and vowed he
liad not the ghost of a chance; but I
thought he had, and you know the re
sult.”

That most immoral amusement, if
amusement lt can be called, to lottery,
is a great source of revenue to the gov
ernment, and I know it Is a great source
of misery and crime to to people, fa il
lustration of which I will tell au anec
dote, which, strange as .It may seem,
absolutely true.
A lady took her little boy to a neighbor
ing fair. He wag a lovely child, with
flaxen hair, blue eyes and a dazzlingly
fair complexion. To this pair a well-dressed
woman of the middle class, iasciuatcd
apparently by the extraordinary beauty
of the child, approached. “I hare a car
riage here,” satu she to the mother; “may
I take your boy for a drive ? I will bring
him back almost immediately.” The lady
was young and unsuspecting; the child
eager to go. He was carried off, and in
vain the mother waited and watched.
The stranger woman never brought back
her child. The kidnapper was not a na
tive ot those parts. No one there knew
wbo sbe was, whence she came, or whith
er she bad gone.
There seemed no clue to the mystery.
The poor mother went more than half dis
tracted; but the father, a mau of energy
and shrewd sense, succeeded m tracking
his child to a village far south. Accom
panied by “carabinieri,” he discovered his
sou fa a loft, and rescued him only Just fa
time from an awful fate. He was about
to be murdered, and an altar had been
erected on which the victim’s blood was
to spurt. The motive of the intended
crime was to insure his murderess
a prise iu the lottery; for a soothsayer
had recommended fur this purpose
the sacrafice of a fair and rosy child. The
ghastly plot was invented by a priest, for
what end I do not know. The priest es
caped; the woman was put in prison,
where she shortly died. She had not
borne a bad character, aud tbe dreadful
guilt she meditated appears to have oeen
tbe result of a sort of maduess which the
fascination of the lottery Is said to bring
upon its victims. Perhaps it is fair to add
that this happened many years ago.
enormous power behind is his most nota
ble characteristic, but when one glances
at his shoulders, again one doubts whelh
er it is so. It is not a pretty little head,
but the kind, generous eye gives it char
acter aud individuality. The neck, more
over, is far from feeing the gracefully
arched type that ladles admire. He is,
indeed, distinctly ewe-necked, but one
gradually falls iu love with the horse, and
liis neck appears to suit him. The rich
bay so delightfully contrasted with his
black points seems just precisely the right)
color for him. I gaze and admire.
“Isn’t ho the least bit light below the
knee?” I presently suggested.
“Perhaps a little, but handle him. He’i
as quiet as a lamb,” says his trainer,, and
I pass my hand down his clean legs, ef
greater girth than they appear, by reason,
it may be, of the formation of the knee.
He is a foreigner, an alien, and twice he
has lost me my money, but I do lore a

An amusing story is told of one of the
Pennsylvania Congressmen who reluc
tantly obeyed the orders of Boss Cameron
to change from Hiscock to Keifer for
speaker. Being somewhat exhilarated he
declared that Don Cameron had been
willing to have them vote for Hiscock un-'
til he got orders from his bosses, Grant
and Conkling, inNew York, to the contra
ry. Alter which he added reflectively, after
taking auother drink: “It’s bad enough
to be under any kind of a boss, but it is
horrible and degrading to obey a boss
who takes orders from another boss. For
myself, I feel like a slave fa the old time
when he was whipped by a negro over

thrashed by the white overseer.” Tho

Proposing to Evtabllsh aa Addltloaa!
Court to Consist ot Fifteen Judges.
Washington, December 27.—It ■_!
pretty well settled that the committee of
the American Bar Association will, at its
meeting fa New York In February, adopt
the plan for the relief of the United States
Supreme Court, which contemplates tbe
establishment of another court, to consist
of fifteen judges. A member of the com
mittee is authority for the statement that
this action will be taken fa deference to
the wishes of tbe Supreme Court, rather
than for any other reason. He says the
judges of this court are unalterably op
posed to the other plan, which looks
to tbe sub -division of the present
bench into separate chambers, each
with jurisdiction over certain
classes of cases. The judge* think,
in the first place, that this plan would not
give the relief sought; that it would not
enable the court, even though lt trebled
its capacity for work, to hear the cases
coming ap as promptly as they should be
heard, to say nothing of relieving tbe
docket of the cases that have accumulat
ed. In the second place, the Supreme
judges think it would lower the dignity,
standing aud influence of the court to di
vide it up for the sake of getting more
work out of it. It is probable that this
consideration weighs more with the court
than any other. The judges are not will
ing to sacrifice any of tbe dignity belong
ing to the court. They probably will rec
ommend to Congress the passage ot an
act providing for the creation of an addi
tional court, which shall hear and have
jurisdiction over most of the case* that
now go to the Supreme Court. AU the
higher and most important cases, such as
Involve constructions of tho constitution,
will be reserved for the Supreme Court.

A gentleman who is very near to the
President, and who has had an Interview
with him since he arrived in New York,
says that General Arthur has decided to
appoint Ex-Senator Sargent of California,
Secretary of the Interior, and William E.
Chandler, of New Hampshire, Secretary
of the Navy. Nothing Is likely to prevent
the appointment of Sergent; end Chan
