that trains would be running into Atlan

generally understood recently that the

this belief has been partly verified by the
movements of the locating and construc

Complimentary to Judge Boynton.
Outside of his circuit, we doubt if
Judge Boynton is more popular any
where in the State than in Newnan, and
Lis presence here this week has been
made the occasion of an ovation that
will be pleasantly remembered by our
people for many weeks to come. On
Tuesday evening last ho was taken in
charge by a committee of admiring
friends and carried out to Hardaway A
Hunter’s pond, where it was proposed
to regale him with an old-fashioned bar
becue and fish-fry. A quantity of fine
fish were caught and cooked on the spot.
A dair.ty lambkin of irreproachable pedi
gree squirmed and quivered upo* the
spit, whose unctuous aroma, mingling
with the balsamic redolence of the sur
rounding woods, so wrought upon the
appetites of those present as to be abso
lutely tan.alizing. The foregoing deli
cacies were in due lime supplemented by.
such dietary condiments as coukl he
hastily gotten together, the whole con
stituting r menu that lingered on the
palate with refreshing fragrance long
after the hour of adjournment. It was a
rare occasion in many respects—just in-
iormai enough to be delightfui, and yet
not so informal as to do violence to the
nice proprieties invariably observ
ed by our people in doing honor to a
istinguished guest. By 9 o’clock the
last flauil eau had been extinguished
and tho genial company wended their
way homeward, tarrying only long
enough on the festal scene to pay their
parting respects to the honored guest of
the evening, and to assure him by a ris
ing vo’e that if he ever needed anything
in thiscommunity all he hadtodowas
to ask for it.

The adjourned term of Coweta Supe
rior Court convened last Monday morn
ing, with Judge Boynton on the benoh.
Grand and traverse jurors summoned
for the regular March term were pres
ent and answered to their names as they
were calied. Some were excused, foi
different causes, but their places were
readily supplied and the Court proceed
ed to business.
Judge Boynton's charge to the grand
jury was clear, coucise and able, and
when lie had finished it is safe to say
that no member was in doubt as to what
would be required of him in the per
formance of his sworn duty.
Several leading attorneys were ex
cused on account of sickness, and this
action necessitated the continuance of a
number of important cases that had
been set for trial.
The day was occupied in trying di
vorce cases and other suits of minor im
portance Towards evening, howevor,
became apparent that Couit could not
last long unless lawyers and litigants
furnished occupation lor the Judge and
jury, and as there was a manifest disin
clination to do so Judge Boynton yield
ed to the importunities of both and dis
missed the traverse jury for the term.
The grand jury is yet in session, though,
aud wi.l nrobabiy not be able to adjourn
before noon to-day.
The grand jury is a representative
body in all respects, and considering the
short session they have doubtless ac
complished more work than any similar
body that ever convened in the county.
Judge A. B. Brown is foreman and
Capt. A. B. Cates clerk.
Solicitor-General Reid went home on
Wednesday, and in his absence Orlando 1
McClendon, Esq., has been serving the
Court as Solicitor pro tem. He drops in
to the official groove as naturally as a
duck takes to water, and by his kind
and courteous attentions to the grand ju
ry has won their everlasting gratitude.
Sheriff'Carmical and Clerk Swint had
not waited an a Court in so long that
they appeared somewhat embarrassed
at first, but soon recovered their official
composure and proceeded to business
with their usual veteran-like precision
and regularity.
Judge Boynton is the handsomest ju
dicial officer in the State, not excepting
even Judge Jim Brown of the Cherokee
Circuit, and is as clever and conrteons
on the bench as off. He is a decided fa
vorite with the members of the Newnan
bar.
