OGLETHORPE COUNTY.
The Election— Court-House Bond*
I.iiimI Male—County Commissions
Lk xi no ton, Ga., Nov. 4.—[Special
The election last Tuesday was the qui
etest in the annals of our county, as only
1()4 votes were polled. Of this number
Lexington cast 20 and Crawford 40.
At the January election^ the issuing of
>25,000in bonds to pay for our new
ourl-hotise will be submitted to the
people, and as it will only require two-
thirds of 101 votes-—the total number
cast at the last general election—there is
no doubt about their being issued.
Mr. Hamilton McWhorter, of^ this
place, together with his brother Vason,
has purchased his father’s tract of land
near i’enfield, aggregating 4,000 acres.
Hamp is investing largely in real estate,
and is making more clear money perhaps
than any lawyer in this section of the
state. At the last term of our court he
gained every case he argued.
Hon. W. C. Birchuiore, one of our rep
resentatives in the legislature, has re
signed tho county coramissionership, and
I learn that Mr. L. F. Edwards will
doubtless be elected in his place. Frank
will make an able officer.
ELBERT COUNTY.
Sudden Death—Tlie Cotton Crop—A New
Church—Accident to Kr. A. J. Cleve
land—A Stock Law case.
[Gu*ette ]
A colored woman in town, the wife of
Alfred Jones, picked cotton all day on
Wednesday of last week, and on Thurs
day morning she w as dead.
A few of tho citizens met together on
Thursday evening las^ and raised foul
thousand dollars in subscriptions for the
purpose of building a new Methodist
church in Elherton.
It is thought that about three-fourths
of tho cotton crop has already been
picked out, and without any rain on it.
A cleaner crop of cotton was never before
gathered.
Wtf learn that on Friday -evening last
the gin of Messrs. Cleveland iV Adams
caught lire, and in attempting to put it
out Mr. A. J. Cleveland was seriously
hurt. We are glad to learn that his in
juries are not of a dangerous character,
however, and tho probability is that he
will soon be all right again. Tho gin
was saved.
An interesting case will be tried before
Jufctico Robuck hero on Thursday next,
involving the question of the legality of
the stock law. One day last week Eliza
Geter impounded some cattle belonging
to Mr. John D. James, and the first ease
under the law that wo have heard of in
this county has been made of it. lion.
P. W. Davis has been retained by Mr.
dames, and we learn that he claims the
law is unconstitutional and void. The
case will be an interesting one, and will
involve the whole question of the stock
law issue.

The A. & C. Road.—Mr. F. W. Lucas

“THE GOOD SAMARITANS.
The|r I'all on Each Other and Have
alUeneral Bow.
There is a colored benevolent society
in Athens, composed largely* f ■. female
members, and known as the Good Sama
ritans, who are owners of a cemetery
in East Athens and it is the duty of its
members to relieve the distressed, nurse
the sick and bury the dead. Green Bul
loch is the head man in the society, and
has an unbridled influence over the fe
male members. Several years ago the
affairs of this society got in a jumble,
but Green came out victorious, and his
enemies asserted with the funds also. It is
a well known fact that President Bulloch,
before he become the head of the Good
Samaritans, was as poor as the proverbial
church mouse; but he accumulated
wealth with the rapidity of the average
tourist to Canada, and built and stocked
a store at the upper bridge. Such thrift,
coupled with Green’s popularity with
the sisters in the society, made lor him
many enemies, who have constantly
sought to overthrow him, but to no avail,
Wednesday night the Good Samaritans
had their regular meeting at the Town
Hall, and a savage attack was made up
on the President by bis enemies. The
uniting wtf Into a regular wran
gle, and for a time things got so threaten
ing that the police were sent for to pre
serve the peace, Bulloch then proceeded
to settle things according to his own
y, and organized two branches iff the
tritons—giving his enemies
ouors and keeping for him-
l cash.
at
The Dust.—It is suggested that tho
ity secure a street sprinkler from Ma
con to sprinkle the roads to tho fair
grounds next week, and to keep th<
streets in good order in that direction.
Macon and Augusta usually keep dow
tho dust on public occasions in some
such way, and it is thought that*one
extra sprinkler will do the work.
Safe in the Asylum.—l)r. Bertling
has been lodged in the asylum, and yes
terduy his conductors, Messrs. Prather
and Arnold, returned homo. They told
tho Doctor that they were taking him to
tho State Fair at Macon, and he gave no
trouble. He objected to being introduced
as Doctor to his nurses, hut said he was a
millionaire, with a fortune of eight mil-
Ron dollars, and expected to be honored
as such. lie also made a confession that
is too horrible to believe.
Good-Sized Ecus.—The newest dodgo
—an avoidance out of tho way of prohib
itory laws—is a whisky-egg—that is, tho
late edition is as full of whisky as the
old, reliable egg is of meat, and a littlo
fuller, because they are constructed large
enough to hold a good drink. Drummers
for whisky establishments are selling
them throughout the country, and the
dealer w ho handles them without license
to sell by the drink w ill bo criminally
liable. The ingeniously devised vessel
is a fair counterfeit, we are told, of a
hen’s egg, has a carefully sealed punc
ture which, when laid opan^ leaves a
drinking cup ready with the intoxicating
draught.
