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' as good as de brass bau’.” 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- nac, who owned the store destroyed and the residence, which was burned on the upper story, and on Messrs. Bowen, and Burum & Bro. and IV. T. Anderson & Co. There was $3,000 insurance on the store, $5,000 on the residence and $2,000 on the furniture belonging to Mrs. D’An- tignsc, in the Southern Mutual ot Athens. Burum* Co. were Insured with D.

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 mon pine wood, sis feet long, two feet wide and two teet deep.

His stock of dry goods is dam aged by a good soaking, which is not at all imi roving to that class of goods. The plastering is falling, aud much of the loss will be in to delay and moving. Time Is as valuable as his stock to a dry goods merchant, and hence it is impossible for Mr. Audeison to estimate his loss to-day. He is insured with D. It. Wright, Allen * Co., and J. M. Burueli for $19,500, but says this will not cover his loss. He was preparing to take stock on the 1st of January. He is also waiting on the insurance companies before de ciding on what to do with fas dripping stock, delaying in present quarters or moving out to a new store. Messrs. My ers & Marcus are without damage, except from water and a small breakage of glass and goods. The store or Z.

Post-Appeal: The Post-Appeal man met a prominent exhibitor at the exposi tion iu the city this morning and asked him how the work of distributing the awards was progressing. •‘Progressing like Hades. Why they are worth noth ing when we get them; four-fifths of us exhib ited articles for which we claimed dis Uuctive merits. The same proportion of the awards are given for general excel lence of the exhibit. Now what good is that to us ?” The reporter did not know; he, however, inquired of the irate exhib itor if that was all he had to complain about. “Ah ? Well, I should think not; why here is my concern, whose original subscription was n tbe thousands, and wbiih has spent money freely since, Is now asked to pay $40 for the medal that has been awarded. If more money liad been needed and an appeal made we could hive come forward again, but to buy our medal we will not give one cent.

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.” Nest morning we went to tj^^omforb- ablc box occupied by the besl^H^in tbe world.

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.

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.

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. Kanar Richer; Soae poorer. The 13th day ofDecember, 1881, came in Its regular course, and on that day took place the Extraordinary Semi-annual Drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery, under the sole management of Gens. G. T.
