A bold rOROER.
Prince Small, colored, now confined in
the Franklin county jail for forger), is
for his education and intelligence a most
expert hand at the business. A week or
two ago a letter came to the post-office at
this place directed to Prince. It con
tained a bond for his appearance at court
signed by It. D. Yow ns security, in the
presenco of several witnesses, ami ap
proved by W. A. Mitchell,.I. P. It also
contained a letter from Mr. Mitchell, di
recting the shcrilT to discharge him on
the bond. Some peculiarities in the form
of the lioml excited the sheriff's suspi
cion, and a close inspection satisfied him
that it was a forgery. An investigation
showed that the letter had been sent by
Small from Carnesville, to be mailed at
Marlin. One other darkey, who is ni“-
pcctod as being an accomplice of Small
in the bond forgery, is deeping his com
pany in jail.—Carnesville llogistor.

4 uguiU Chronicle.
The rumor soon spread around
(lie city Sunday aiternoon tha:
Powderiy could not come to Au
gusta, but that the next biggest man
m the Knights of Labor oiganiza-
tion would arrive. Yesterday
morning the Clironicla's represen
tative was on hand as the train
crossed the bridge and boarded tire
sutne.
Mr. Frederick Turner, the Secre
tary t>f the National Board of the
Knights of Labor, was aboard, ac:
compauicd by committeeman Mul
len. On the at rival of the train
they were received with cheers by
a thousand of the operatives of the
in 1 s, who had assembled to meet
th^m. They drove to the Uloiie
Hotel, the crowd quietiy dispers-
ing.
DURING TIIK FORENOON
Mr. Turner was besieged by vis
itors from every direction and por
tion of the city; some desirous to
see Mr. Turner through curiosity
and others to pay their respects to
the head of the order.
Mr. Turner was visited by sever
al citizens, and when asked bis
opinion as to the difficulties, said
that he wopld have to find the prop
er condition of things before be
could express an opinion.
Till! CITIZENS MICET.
The citizens held a secret meeting
yesterday at iz o'clock, at the Li-
I.-raty. They are making strenuous
elTorts to adjust the difficulty. Com
mittees weie appointed to wait
upon Mr. Turner and also upon the
factory Presidents. The meeting
was private, hut this fact is estab
lished—that it did take place, and
that lilt committee waited on both
tin- I’rssidents nnd Mr. Turner.
It will, no doubt, be of consider
able interest to know who
MR. FREDERICK TURNER IS.
Mr. Turner is Grand Secretary of
the Knights of Labor of the United
States, and is next isv position to
the great Powderiy, by whom he
i< sent to endeavor to adjust mat
ters.
FltKDF.HICK TURNER
was born in 1S46, on the nth of
May, in Siiminersctahire, .England
In 1S56, at the age of ten, he came
to America. lie is a graduate of
the High School, Philadelphia.
About the time of his graduation
the « ar broke out. On account of
his size he was too small to enter
the nrmy, consequently he went
into the Quartermaster’s depart
meift. He is now five feet sij
inches, ami weighs 175 pounds. Has
dark brown eyes and hair, small
mustache, tbund, full face, with
clearly defined features. In his con
versation he is conservative, and ex
presses a desire for an amicable ad-
lustmcnt of the present troubles.
He is a gold beater by trade, but has
been in the'grocery business for
numl cr of year*,having 1 been black
listed from his trade.
SIR. TURNER ON TUB KNIGHTS.
Mr. Turner said they would be
able to show in a short while that
the Knights of Labor were a bene
fit to any community. Wherever
they can inculcate the principles of
the order, they are obliged to be
law abiding and good citixcns.
REASONS FOR COMING TO AUGUSTA
The reporter asked Mr. Turner
why he came to Augusta. He re
plied; “I went last week to Rich
monfi, Va-i to make arrangements
for the meeting ol our General As
sembly, which meets there onOcto
ber 4. Mr. Powderiy received _
telegram from the Mayor of yaur
city, asking him to come to Au
gusta. Mr. Powderiy telegraphed
me to corne in his stead. I am here
and hope to be able to adjust the
trophic. 1 have been visited during
the day by operatives from; all the
mills and citizens.
GAINING INFORMATION.
In order to gain information I
met the executive committee of the
different assemblies of‘the city of
Augu-ta ard heard from them the
grievance a in regard to the lockout
and strike. Of course I had to hear
both sides before I could act intel
ligently. The object of my visit f»
to adjust matters, and it will not be
my fault If if is not accomplished.
estover he'd. Speeches we’tc made
by Messrs. Turner and Mullen.
MR turner at Home.
Mr. Turners was asked what he
did at home. “In my office, us sec
retary, I have two stenographer.-,
two type writers and twenty-five
other clerks. We have four thous
and assemblies to deal with, which
keeps my office pretty busy.”
PROSPECTS.
Two members of the citizens
committee were rtenanri seem very
much impressed with Mr. Turner
as a fair and just man. They meet
the mill presidents at ten to day
with a proposition from Mr.Turner.
The prospects ot adjustment seems
better.
AROUND THE MILLS.
Things have had a much more
livelier look than'any day since the
lockout. The operatives aic disc iss-
ing the prrspects of a settlement
They seem perfectly satisfied as to
the result, and are willing to stride
by the decision ol their leader, what
ever it may be.
The citizens commit-ee are busily
engaged in endeavoring to bring
the strike to a close, it is to be
hoped that a liberal spirit on both
sides will prevail and an adjustment
be affected.

Two Locomotives nan Into a Passenger
Train.
IlauxswiCK, Ga., Aug. 15.—
While the passenger train with the
Savannah excursionists was nearing
the curve in. the southern part of
the city to-Jay two locomotives
were discovered rapidly nppioach-
ing. The brake* were at once ap
plied and the speed of the^pngiue*
was a’most entirely checked, but
the locomotives weie running t jo
fust to entirely ptevent a collision.
The engineers jumped, thereby sav
ing their lives but one had his ankle
sprained. None of the passenger*
were hurt. The two locomotives
and one passenger coach were bad
ly wrecked, and the tender to one
of the locomotives was damaged.
The blame seems to attach to the
engineer who was taking the loco
motives to the tank, when he should
have known the parsengci train
was due.

REV. ABRAHAM
Whipped la At

.usnsti, for Freachinc a Bap.
tilt' lemon.
Something over a hundred years
ago, the Ret. Abraham Marshall, a
Baptist minister, pfeached in Au
gusta, Ga. It was the first sermon-
ever preached there by a Baptist
minister.’ She good people ot the
town were greatly enraged that the
heresies Of- the Baptist -church
should bu preached in their midst,
add that their'childrew and servants
should be exposed to the damning
Baptist doctrines. For the heinqps
offense, poor Abraham Marshall
was tiecF up and publicly whipped
in the Episcopal chinch yard.
There has been a great change in
the religious sentiment of-,Augusta
since the day Marshall was scourg
ed. Tne Baptist church-jp Augus
ta is now nnfluential, * popular and
welliustained. We havS seen !•
stated, that there are 17 Baptist
churches in the city with a member-
ship of 9,000, but we suppose the
statement as to. membership is a
mistake, and that it really includes
those more favorably inclined
r sqrio
»b>C9 who treatednim so unjust
ly and so cruelly, were in all prob-
ability sincere and conscientious.
They thought they were discharg
ing their duty to their fellow^maii
and Creator. We rcadijAuip how
natrow, prejudiced, ataggmumane
they were. .We have jMcnty of men
in our midst who are agnarrow and
uncharitable for their day as the men
who whipped Abrahxm Marshall.
They condemn men and men of
whicb-tbey know but little, if any-
thing. The skate bitter, fiendish
prejudice that placed stripes upon
the bstkof Mr. Marshall still lives.
Let tho narrow ^iggots and self-
cdbatit&tM judges of mankind take
heed that they are the merest atoms
upon the glphe, thst they see the
faintest glimmerings of the great
truths of nature au revelation, and
let them become llberaland charita

Most of them were represented in
