Middle Georgia Argus: Mrs. Collier, a widow lady about forty or forty-five years of age, was burned to death last Monday afternoon. She lived on the plantation of T. F. Grubb, a few miles from Tbomsston. It seems from the fact* as we get them, that she bad gone into the cook room about sundown to start a fire to get sapper. A son of Mr. Grubb and another gentleman were In tbe boose, to which the cook room is joined, but heard no unusual noise or cries of distress or suffering. When the gentleman stalled home, between sunset and dark, he re marked that be smelt something burning, and commenced to look round tbe bouse and yard. In a few minutes young Mr. Grubb found Mrs. Collier lying In the edge of the yard, burned to death. Her clothing was all burned off of her and her stockings were burned to the mouth of her shoes. She died a horrible dea.b, and her body, baked as it was, brought tears to the eyes of the hardest hearts. It is supposed In starting tbe fire that her clothing caught fire and that the blaze was so Jarge and powerful as to prevent her from giving tlie alarm, and that she jrnn until she fell and expired. She is said to have been an excellent lady and was highly respected by all who knew bcr. She leaves one or two children. Griffin News: Yesterday aftermmn Wylie Bullard, a twelve year old lad wko lives on Foplar street with his mother, was handling a pistol which was fired In some way, the ball penetrating tbe neck cf his mother directly In front of the wind pipe. Dr. Warren was called in and pro nounced the wound only slight, though had tlie ball gone half an inch further back, it would have, in all probability, produced death. Tbe little boy was terribly lightened and thought he bad killed his mother for true. When tha reporter and police officers arrived lie was in a state of agitation quite terrible to behold. Ho was assured, however, that no harm should bo done him for tbe accident. He had procured the pistol only the day be fore and bad bought some cartridges fora bit of home shooting when the machine went off with result as stated.

The back door bad been se curely fastened on tbe Inside Thursdty night and found opeif on Friday morning without injury to the lock or bolts. Hence this reasonable supposition.

Etcnlng Neves: Louis Warren, the col ored driver of tbe mail wagon, which Mr. Gillette runs by contract with all thfe roads in transferring mail to and from tbe post- office, was arrested yesterday morning for robbing tho mails. Several letters nave been missed ol late, and suspicion fell on Warren. Several letters irom Waynes boro were missed on Monday last, and one with money in it. On Saturday night a post-office employethoughthesaw Warren hastily conceal a package in his pocket while waiting in the office for the mail bags. A decoy was set yesterday, Sunday morning, a~.l when Warren brought In the mall bag Us contents were opened and cast on the table by the clerk who went into an adjoining room and watched for developments. Wairen was seen to snatch a package from the table and place it In his pocket whllqtlie clerk was in the next room. The clerk got on the wagon with Warren aud rode to the depot? with him. There a policeman was called, Warren was arrested and the package found in bis pocket. Warren was put under arrest and held by tbe Recorder this morning for the government. Capt. Prince, the postmaster, says there is no commissioner in Augusta, and he has tel egraphed to Capt. Frye to tend a commis sioner or order one from Waynesboro to investigate tlie case and conduct the trial The horse attached to the buggy of J Rhodes Brown made things lively in Co lumbus on Monday. He broke loose, and caused Dr. Oslin’s horse to do the same when a third joined in the race, in which all three vehicles were badly wrecked^ doubtless to the gratification of the wagon and harness makers. The Times mentions a fearful tragedy In Louisiana, in which twp Columbus ladies were the victims—Mr.-Lewis and Mrs. Thompson.

One was kuoched from track, but the other lodged under the dir, throwing it from tlie track, two hours delay it was gotten back oq track and reached tbe city shortly aft< o’clock. A special train was sent oufton the Western railroad to Opelika. The Columbus Enquirer gives an in teresting account of one C. G.

He swindled the la dies of Xewnan out of fifty dollars, and was badly wanted at LaGrange. He was denounced a few days ago by the St. Louis Republican as a fraud. He shipped his valise to Columbus from LaGrange and tramped through tlie country and was arrested before he had time to deposit his baggage. He has returned • to LaGrange under escort of the city marshal. He will some day come to a good end—of a rope, Mn. M.

Dr. Frank M. Gordy and wife have moved to town and will occupy the resi dence recently purchased from Dr. G. B. Battle. A reward of $10 is offered for the ap prehension of Waller, alias John Wil liams, who Is charged with robbing the house of Bussell Randle. Tho young o#ts stood the cold sntp very well and are looking splendidly. The sowing of oats continues, and if no disas ter befalls them the crop will be a large one. From parties living near Antioch, we learn that tliw rains of last week did con siderable damage to tbe turnpiko on the Haunabatclicc, and that the bridge had fallen in, rendering it impassable. Atlanta Constitution: It would not be just to lei the Cotton Exposition pass away without paying proper tribute to the energy, tact and ability of Mr. B. W. Wrenn, who was at the head ofthe de partment of transportation. Mr. Wrenn was at work night and day m the interest of the expositor,and traveled over the en tire country arranging schedules, and the fact that he obtained lower rates than were given to the centennial stamps his work as successful beyond comparison. There is no man who knows the passen ger systems or passenger agents ofthe country better than Mr. Wrenn, and this knowledge he gave the exposition the en tire benefit of. It is confessed on all sides that the railroads sayed tlie exposition, and no one had so much to do with get ting the railroads to the rescco as Mr. Wrenn. A11 the officers of.the exposition combine in according to him the highest praise for his energy, his skill and his de votion, and the public feels just the same way about it. •The Sandersville Mercurg notes the fact that a Berkshire hog cut a valuable mule across the bowels, so that be died in an hour after. They belonged on the plantation of Hon. W. A. Parsons, in Washington county. It also states that three negroes from the country were lodg ed in jail, charged with riot. Also, tliat Mr. Charles A. Wall was elected sheriff of Washington county. It is sickly in Rome. There are nine cases reported, and Moseley, of the Trib une, among the number. The Tribune also records the death of Mrs. Messenger, Col. John A. Johnson and George Rich ardson. The same paper reports that the mud’s deeper and stiller than ever was known in tlie streets of Rome. 5m.LEi>OEVir.LE Recorder: Mrs. M. E. Whittaker, widow of the late Janies C. Whittaker, of this county, died at the res idence of her son in-law, Dr. John Harde man, m Jones county on Sunday morn ing, 8tb instant. She died of pneumonia, and was ill only five or six days. Mb. J. W. Wieb was elected sheriff of Clarke county. Waterman, of the Athens Banner, says: The “primer” variety of fun in the newspapers lias become decidedly stale. Every idiot that wauts to he funny aud can’t tries thatplan to show how funny he can’t be. been exceedingly bard, but they have done the best in their power.

Last sum mer he changed her name to Umber Ella, In hopes some one would carry her off, bat she still remains on his hands. There are some Umber Ellas safe anywhere. Mr. M. L. Patrick has brought into our office two very fine ears of corn raised on his plantation near this place. The ears had over one thousand grains each, and he states that they are but samples gath ered from a large field cultivated carefully by a colored man, who has been living with Mr. Patrick for several years, never buys a bushel of corn or a pound of meat, and is, therefore, independent. Jf colored men who are devoid of “book lamin’’ can do so well, why do intelligent white men complain and say they cannot make a living. If people woald give more of their attention to work and not grumble so much we would have a better world. . Savannah News says: It is under stood there will be a general parade by the military on the 10th instant, the an niversary of General Lee’s birth. The Bulloch Banner announces that Statesboro has so improved that a visitor passing through the place would hardly know It. This marked evidence of pros perity is attributed to the abolition of the sale of red liquor. The Central Mills at Bolingbroke, Ma con and Western railroad, are now turn ing out about 250 bushels of meal and about 30 barrels of Hour per day. Atlanta Post-Apipeal: A number of Atlanta ladles have been favorably im pressed by the action of ten ladies in Sav annah who, after considering the matter, went to the theatre the other night, wear ing low hats or lace bonnets. The Sav* annab example is worthy of being follow ed everywhere. * Atlanta Constitution: Yesterday John L. Williams and James Williams were before Commiisioner Buck on a bench warrant charging them with oh strutting a United States marshal in the discharge of his duty. The former was put under a bond of $700 and - tbe latter was required to give bond in the sum - of $500. The Athens Daily Banner: This com munity has lost another of its most excel lent ladies. Mrs. Georgia B. McCleskcy, wife of Dr. G. L. McCleskey, died Thurs day night. She had been in bad health for some years, and for some time since has been confined to her bed. Amid much suffering, she maintained her Christian fortitude to the last. Mrs. McCleskey was a native of south Georgia, but has spent tnost of lier life In and near Athens. She reared a family of several children, and in their training, as in all the other depart ments of work, she illustrated the religion which was tho ornament of her life. To the family and friends, her death is an ir reparable loss. Mb. John Luning, a typo on the Albany News and Adeeriiscr, has aban doned the art preservative and gone to farming in Florida. The same paper says: • ’ This year’s cotton receipts at Albany are now 2,000 bales short of last year— not as much, by several thousands, n knowing ones predicted at the beginning of tho season. Montezuma Weekly: A conceited fop, from Hankiusville, who is so fond of fine clothes that ho revels in them by day and dreams of them by night, called Christmas day on a young lady near Vcnna, and, removing his overcoat, etc., in tbe hall preparatory to entering the parlor, when tlie lady heard him utter the following. Taking the overcoat and hang ing it up, ho said: “Hang there, you fifiy dollar overcoat!” Fulling off his gloves and putting them on the table, “Lay there, you five-doilar kids!” Placing his bat on the rack, his cane in the corner, “Stand there, you filteen-dollar cane.” Then entering the parlor, he was about to ait down, when the lady pulled Uie chair from under him and said, as she left, the room, “Lay there, you two-cent fool.” Ho won’t go there any more. Waycross Reporter: The construc tion of the Live Oak and Rowland’s Bluff railroad was commenced this week and will bo pushed through with vigor, under the able management of that best of rail road men, Col. H. M. Drane. Arlington Advance: Probably tho heaviest rain for years foil above here one night last week, swelling every branch aud creek to their utmost. Bridges and mill dams were swept away In every di rection, leaving a number of streams im passable and involving heavy losses on counties and mill owners. Augusta News; The coroner’s Jury, which investigated tbekillingot Joe Man ly by Hugh Luke, have returned a verdict of manslaughter. The jury was made up equally of white and colored men. Luke is in jail under warrant from judge Fic- qnet. his last. Be was an old resident of this city, having besu here long before th war, and was respected and esteemed b all who knew him. A young man invested $10 in a lottery and drew a blank. Then he was angry, caded himself a “loof mad” backwards, and took an oath to never have anything to do with lotteries. A week later he attended a church finr, aud a radiant damsel with a book and pencil and spark ling eyes aud a persuasive smile induced him to invest twonty-fve cents in a “chance” lor au East,ate pin cushion. Thus are our good resolves morally fractured by the syren voici of the en chantress, or the euchanling voice of the syren, which ever you may prefer. And besides, ha didn't win tbe pin cushion. That is what makes church fairs aud oth er lotteries so wicked—drawing blanks. Sumter Republican: On Satnrday last old man James Powell, of Marion county, was in the cltr. He Is over eighty years of age and bad just finished planting and ploughing in twenty acres of rye and oats. He said that lie used a horse over twenty years old in his work, and wants some other county to produce an older plow man and steed. Savannah News: The contractor who has been repairing tbe roof of the Inde pendent Presbyterian church, which was damaged during the August storm, dis covered a few days since, while inspecting the work, that the edifice had been struck by lightniag, the electric fluid having en- tereathe roof, breaking one of the heavy trusses which support it, then passing along tbe iron braces, and diffusing itself along tbe gas pipes. It Is not known when the building was struck, but certainly it was not during the great storm, as light ning was not included in any of the hor rors of that eventful niglit. The damage done is not perceptible, except under the roof, and is not material. Chronicle and Constitutionalist: The examination of-Lewis Warren, charged with stealing letters from the post-office, will take place before Judge -Samuel Levy, United States commissioner, to day. Judge Levy is the commissioner at this place. It Lasheeu ascertained that quite a large numberof letters were taken from the malls, and the supposition is that several of them, at least, contained money. One gentleman -missed a letter la which was a check for one thousand dollars, bat this was payable to his order and could not be negotiated. Savannah Nu’-s: About 2 o’clock yesterday morning some colored men had a quarrel ou*he corner of Montgomery and Bryan streets, during which pistols were drawn, and tho belligerents opened flro on one another. After exchanging these leaden compliments without serious results, the warriors became lrightencd, and, stowing .away their pocket artillery, retreated rapidly before a policeman reached tho scene, which was rather lucky for them.

He is a well known railroad man, and was for a long time with the Georgia road as book keeper and conduc tor. He will make a faithful and effi cient agent for the Augusta and Kuox- ville road. Ed F. Sisson, agent of the Missouri Pa- rifle railroad, has been interviewed at Chattanooga about the South Carolina exodus. He says that ofono hundred people enrolled at Newberry only fifty could pay their fare to Kansas after sell ing out all they possessed. He says the railroads have made no special efforts to induce tho emigration, but only responded to calls, and adds that the Western farm ers who wanted the colored labor are now stocked with it, and the demand Is over.

George Johnson now rests in a'oell at the station house, where he was ’placed this morning by Captain Bagby and Officer Glover for burglarizing the house of Mr. Hughes on Peachtree street, last night. A Post-Appeal reporter visited the prisoner with Captain Couch to-day, and in answer to questions George said be was bom a free man in Cincinnati, but has since lived in Virginia. He con fessed breaking into tbe liouso of Mr. Hughes, and said he did so because lie was in want. He also stated that he was nineteen years of age, and that this is the first time he was ever iu trouble or under arrest. Captain Couch, however, says he is about thirty years old, au i the officers of Griffin and else where have been after him heretofore. He is a yellow negro, abont five feet eight inches in height, heavy set, ami weighs 150 pounds. Columbus Times: On Friday night a S boy by tbe name of John Cos was ed in Hamilton by Mr. E. W.

W. Griffin. We have received tbe following particu lars of the tragedy] in Florida, mention ed in yesterday’s issue: It seems that Mr. Griffin and S. B. Car ter, the murderer, had a difficulty on Wednesday, tho 4tb icst, in which Mr. Griffin fraiied Carter. Carter swore that he wonld have revenge and sued ont a war rant for Mr. Griffin and had him arrested, Mr. Griffin gave his word for nn appear ance for trial and set the time to meet tho sheriff and conrt at Orlando, and after dark was sitting in the office of the hotel in company with two other gentlemen Mr. Griffin was looking over a map of the Disston purchase of Fiorida lands. The as sassin slipped np near tho door and shot Iiimio the back with a shot-gun loaded with buck-shot or slugs. Free shot struck him in tho back below the shoulder blade and two in the arm. Several wont through the map and knocked it from his bands Mr. Griffin jumped np and started towards the hat rack,whore his hat was hanging,and walked about tan feet and fell dead. Ho never spoko ref lor be was shot. The evi dence adduced at the inquest, is that he and Carter had a difficulty—Carter eworo revenge, and borrowed a lwrso and rode in tbo oountry and borrowed a gnu, which ho brought to Orlando and deposited with some ono there. A few momonts before Mr. Griffin was shot Carter went and got the gun and walked off towards the hotel, and had just abont timo to get to the hotel when Mr. Carter was shot. . The jury of inquest found “that, to the best of their knowledge, Mr. Griffin came to his death from t gun-shot wound infiiot- ed by 8. B. Carter.” • * “ Carter, it seems, did not stay in town to tho inquest, but to the contrary has not been seen since Mr. Griffin was shot. There has been offered a reward of Jgl.CCO for tho arrest of Carter. Mr. Griffin’s remains were cart led to Mc- ville and bnried yesterday.

ANOTHER BRIDGE VICTIM. Knocked In tbe Bead By a Bridge. Last night Conductor Smith brought on his train another victim of the bridge over Flint river between Montezuma and Ogle thorpe. Tho killing of yonng Liph Brown by the bridge is still fresh in tho minds of the people, and the yonng man who was knocked off yesterday seems to have beta struck in about the same position and al most under the same circumstances. From what we can learn of the sad affair, a train hand named Lawhon, who went down on the freight train which left Macon at 10:10 yesterday morning, was knocked offbythe bridge ns the train passed at about 8. o’clock. Without knowing any thing of the accident, tbe conductor passed on, and probably does not know anything of it yet. The bridge watchman discovered the un fortunate man lying prone on hisfaoe, and did all he oould to alleviate his suf fering. His headwas terribly cat, andliis nose mashed into a jelly. Ho wu wholly unconscious for a long time. When the up-passenger train came along he wu taker; aboard, and rallied a little before reaching Maoon. He wu taken into the reoeption room at the abed, and when questioned wu unable to give any aooount of himself. In a rambling way he said his name wu Lawnon, and that he lived on the Houston road. He walked out in front of tbe shed and called a hack, and directed the hank man to take him to his home. It wu evident to those who uw him that he had lost his mind.

Amt Oar Correspondent* Admee Stress Bensons for Voting “No Fenee ” Is there at present a “legal” fenoe in our county? The Virginia definition of ale- gal fenoe is: “One horse high, bull strong and pig tight.” Tbe usual Georgia defini tion is: “One five feet high, staked and ri de red.” We venture to state that not single farm of any sizo in Bibb is sur rounded by fences of the above descrip tion, and there are not, perhaps, a dozen farms in the county which can spare the timber to build “legal” fences. Still it estimated and shown by censes reports that one-sixteenth ot the cultivated land of our oountry is taken op by fenoee, .nearly all of which aro illegal ones, which space, added to the time and tronble of turning at them in plowing, and in keeping the cornors cleaned ont daring tho year, is great loss annually to thoso keeping up fences. The statistics of the State show that we expend More than ten dollars on fenoes to keep out one dollar’s worth of stock. Is this economical or senaiblo ? The interest of ell who own or cultivate land demands nn immediate change in onr present fence system. We have now reached a point in onr fanning operations when we must make all possible retrench ments and adopt all improvements in. la bor-saving machinery, or (be occupation will cease to be remunerative, and bank ruptcy and ntter ruin will attend all who follow it. Yet there are some who cling to old forms and adhere to old rules so closo- ly that they are willing to grow poorer and poorer year after year, rather than make any decided change, however wise and ne- cossary it may appear to be.. Our farmers are now breaking down nnder the burdens which annually roll upon them, and it becomes thorn to eagerly seize the golden opportunity offered them on the 2lst instant to voto for the stook law, and thus diminish their great annual outlays in building and repairing feuces. Tho cost in buiidingand repairing fences is far more than . tho value ot our lands, and there is a widespread disposition on the part of the freefimon to shirk tho splitting of rails. There are bat few cross fences on our best organized farms, and, as a general rule, plantations only have aa ontaide fence, and it is not strong enough to hold tho wandering stock ont of onr fields. Lot every one be required .to keep his cattle and shebp in a pasture, and these vast outside fences will no longer be re- qairod, and the smaller acreage for pastur age can be readily kept properly fenced. Lot me ooncludo with a few stub- born facts: It is tbe duty ot every owner to feed and care for his own stock. Law forbids the stock of one farmer from destroying the crops of an other, as is now so common. It is a cheap er and easier task for each man to fence up his own stook than to fence out. all his neighbor’s stock. It is a well establish ed fact that every farmer, who keops liis own stock iu his own pasture, has bettor stock and moro and better butter and milk, and ho loses less by the depredations 11 cattle thieves andsbcr.i-killing digs. It is quite true that tho passage of the “no fence law” will not deprive any farmer of the privilege of keeping his form fenced entire, or divided in to as many fields ns he may desire. In other words, ho can con tinue to cat down and destroy as much timber as he pleases. ^ Tho scarcity of timber, and difficulty of getting rails split, will compel as, in the early future, to either adopt the stock law, or to abandon many of the best farms in our county. We have no legal fences now, and if Lie stock law is adopted on the 21st, labor will be moro plentiful, stock will grow moro valuable aud profitable, and onr lands will appreciate in value rapidly and perma nently. Then let every thinking man, whether he be a farmer anu own land or not; whether lie be merchant, mechanic, lawyer, physi cian or minister, if he feels any interest in the prosperity of his connty,. assist tho moro intelligent farming class in their ef forts to pass tho no fence law by going to tbe polls next Satnrday week and voting “no fence” on their tickets. R. E. P. Vineviixe, January 10,1882. Editobs Telequith and Messenoeb The writor, deeply impressed with the :*\- terosts at stake in the pending election to be held in Bibb county on the 21st instant, through the medium of your invaluable paper, would respectfully ask permission to continue the discussion of the “fensi question.” Let us then begin in mediae res. It Is a meteorological fact, well known to every observer, that the rainfall in middle Georgia has been constantly diminishing for a term of years, pari passu with the re moval of the timber and forests of that sec. tion. The exposure of large aroa3 of land to the scorching rays of the sun, which speedily drink np the early morning dew, and tho absence, in a great degree, of Ihnt vaporization induoed by tlie me isture and coolness of extensive woodlands, have in duccd long and distressing droughts,some times well nigh ruinous to the husband man. The same results are noticeable in other parts of the Union, and tho only remedy is to replaae, at least in part, the primoval forests which have been so recklessly leveled to tho grouud. This can only bo dene by per mitting exhausted hill sides and old fields to grow up again, and protecting and cher ishing tho timbor that still remains. Iu what way is it possible to achievo that ob joct, however, if the work of destruction is allowed to go on, as nocossarily it must under tho operation of the present fence law? Denude tho land of its forest growth,and not only will it bocomo increasingly ster ile, but as tho fences rot away and onnnot bo rebuilt for lack of material, eo will itsmnrket value deteriorate and rapidly diminish. But all this can t a effectually estopped by voting “no fenoe” on election day. WHAT IT COSTS TO FENCE TOUB FARM. If nn irapecuniouB emigrant or freedman is so fortunate as to be able to purchase a small homestead, say of ten acres, let us see wbat will be tbo expense of fencing it nnder existing laws. No less than twelvo thousand rails, at the lowest calculation, will be needed to surround tbe square pint with a lawful fence ten rails high. This wonld bo cqnal.to one hundred and iwent; heavy wagon loads, carrying a hundrei rails each. Every one of these loads wonld readily command one and a half dollars in the Macon market for fnel. This would amount to tho snug sum of $180. Now add forty cents per hundred, which is the minimum cost of cutting an<4 split ting theso rails, and you havo $48.00 more, forming a grand total ot $228 that you are out of pocket for merely fencing the outside lines of yonr ten-acre purchase. This leaves out of aooount the neoessary jjnrden lot nnd orohard enclosures. And i.his, too, when perhaps five dollars per acre was all that was paid for the land. Think of it: Fifty dollars of the purchase money and $228 to fenoe . in and make available nnder our odious fence laws this modest little homestead of ten acres, to say nothing of the cost of hanling and putting the rails in position, no inconsider able item. Bat the expense assnmes fright ful proportions when an average plantation of 500 or 1,000 acres must be enclosed and (hen subdivided by cross fences, to sepa rate the grain and cotton crops, and afiord pasturage for stock. AU of this outlay, too, must be repeated at least once in every twelve years or oftener. The time occupied on the farm in these expensive fencing operations forms also nn important factor __ viewing the snbjecL At least two months, or one-sixth of the whole year must be devoted to that purpose. If that lengthy period were properly utilized in collecting leaves and mould from the woods in the construction of hill side ditches, the drainage of swamps and keep ing tn thorough repair tho bains, stable* and other buildings on the premises, would it not be safe to assert that guano bills would be cut down one-half, and everything abont the plantation exhibit a more trifty and invit- ng appearance? Bat the inexorable neces sity of fencing ont the half starved-hog* and cattle that ran at large upon the high ways, ever ready under the protection of the law to devour the crops ad Ubitum, render these desirable improvements well nigh impossible—the farmer! has! no leis ure forjsuch work. £ Hence tbe delapidat- ed homesteads and tumbling cribs and gin bouses that disfigure onr noble old com monwealth. Abolish this onerous fenee law. however, and the trespassing of Book will incon tinently cease, and the agriculturalist reap the legitimate reward of hia labors. The argument that the stock will eat out permanent pastures is easily answered by the use of movable fences by which grain fields can be enclosed at will, and tbe pas tures changed as often as may be necessary. Bnt tbe writer will trespass no longer at pre sent upon your valuable space, barely all must see the vast importance of abolishing tbe old fence system, and vote to do so at the election on the 21st instant.

Buena Vista, January 9.—This town is making strenuous efforts to secure railroad communication with the rest of the world. The Buena Vista Railroad Company has had a route to Geneva surveyed, and as tbe amount of stook necessary to build the road has been subscribed, work will soon be begun. On the 4th instant the stockholders elected the follow ing board of directors: George W. Adams, of Forsyth; Thomas W. Harvey, James M. Lowe, J. W. Roberts and E. W. Miller, of Buena Vista. Mr. Adams will be elected president. The road will be about twenty miles long. This county, the banner coun ty of the State, according to the agricul ture! report, is a rich field for men with goods to sell. Macon merchants should look to their inferesta here. Our high school opened to-day with over a hundred pupils in attendance. This is among the best graded schools in Georgia. Professor A. L Branham is the principal. Your art exhibition idea meets with hearty approval here. Many people from this section will attend the exposition, and somo of thorn will bo represented in the .exhibition. It in worth a trip to Macon in May just to see the loveliest city in Georgia arrayed in spring attire. Macon's health oxhibit,as published somo time ago, is a good one, but our town, comparatively as to population, can beat it. Since tbe 1st of last August four whites have been Lurried here. Two died in the town and two diod in other places. How is that for health in South- wort Georgia? Col. Edgar M. Butts, the distinguished legislator and jurist, has been very ill for O'week past. His conoitionto-day is somo- what improved. K. C. I. Gordon, January 9.—A painful accident happened to Conductor Whitebbad at Mil- len, about 12 o’clock Saturday night. It seems that ho was helping liis liands to couple a tender on to hia freight, when the blocks which were intended to hold a car wheel slipped, causing them to come to gether with unusual force, crashing his hips and bowols. Ho was brought to his home in this place on the Sunday evening passenger. While he is resting tolerably well, he fears that the bones are broken in his right hip. If both had been freight cars, instead of a tender and freight car, he thinks it wauld have killed him mstqj;* - Iy. The round comer of the tender caugr.t him only partially, whereas tha square cor ner of a freight car would lmve mashed him completely. Mr. Whitehead is a clever man, and held in high esteem on tho rail' road for his punctuality.

There are rumors afioat in tho city that there has been recently made by foreign capitalists several purchases of building sites in the city, and that five large brick etores will be built shortly: and a company well-organized and backed will start a barking business here.

He was identified with all the publio enterprises of this county, and was a large-hearted, liberal and progressive citi zen. There was but one expression in our community when the news reached here, that of sympathy and regret. The portion tars have not reached here, and no one here knows the cause. LATER.
