Death oft- times brings its compensating blessings as well as its sorrows; and, while the loss of their little one is a sad blow to the stricken parents, it is a consolation to know that the child is now beyond all chance of fleshly ill or worldly afflic tion.

While working the public road just beyond the eastern limits of the city last Tuesday two colored boys named George Stevenson and Lundy Johnson became involved in an altercation that may result in the death of one of the parties. Johnson became enraged at a remark made by Stevenson and struck him on the head with the sharp edge of a shovel, burying the blade into the brain of the unfortunate youth. The wound is a serious one, of course, and there is but little hope of the boy’s re covery. Johnson was arrested and lodged in jail, 'where he will be detain ed until his victim either dies or recov ers. A few more of those fine Wyanaotte eggs for sale. $2.00 per dozen of thir teen. W. P.

During the period men tioned the company has, with a $6,000 outfit, ginned fifteen hundred bales of cotton, yielding a net profit of 13 per cent, on the capital stock. At a meet ing of the stockholders recently a semi annual dividend of 4 per cent, was de clared, which still left a surplus of $800 in the company’s treasury. The pres ent officers of the company are: T. E. Zellars, president; J. F. Lovejoy, sec retary and treasurer; R. D. Cole, Sr., Glenn Arnold, Ivey Sewell, J. W. Col ley, directors. The cotton market and by reason of our superior facilities ought to be produced here more cheap ly and profitably. Moreover, it is a line in which there is no danger of over production, while the profits are ap preciably greater than are now realized from the manufacture of the lower grades of cotton goods.

The Franklin News urges the mers of that section to erect a fertili zer factory and manufacture their own guano, estimating the cost of establish ing such an enterprise at about $2,500. The plant operated by the Coweta Fer tilizer Company cost $23,000. = has been badly demoralized this -week, resulting in a heavy tumble in prices. Atlanta lost $1,500,000 by the crash, her heaviest in dividual operator (J. W. Ilarle,) having lost perhaps one-third of this amount. Newnan was also a loser, but escaped the demoralization which disturbed other towns. Taken altogether, this has been the crankiest season that cot ton men of the present generation have ever experienced. There is hardly a dealer in the country whose ribs have not been loosened by an unexpected tussle with the bears, or had the breath jolted out of him by a sudden toss from the horns of the bulls. A Frisky Will-o’-tho-Wisp ? Mr. T.N.Bitighani, of Puckett Station, relates a remarkable occuri*ence wit nessed by him on Thursday night of last week. Shortly after dark lie and Dr. Ballard were walking up the rail road near his residence, when their attention was drawn to a bright light, which at first appeared to be the head light of a locomotive, coming rapidly but silently up the track. When within about fifty yards of the gentlemen, it stopped. Gazing at the object intently, the two gentlemen discovered that it was about twelve feet from the ground and was held in space by its own voli tion. Its exceet|ing brightness dazzled their eyes. After remaining stationary for an instant, it began to recede. Still watching the strange capering of the capricious luminary, they presently saw it turn and again start toward them. When near them it stopped and receded as before, going out of sight this time. Mr. Bingham called out his family and began describing the strange occurrence, when the subject of his thoughts was again discovered—this time listlessly wandering through his orchard, moving in and out among the trees with an abandon as audacious as eccentric. The whole family watched its maneuvering for some time, when at last it struck a bee-line for Mr. Walker Camp’s plantation, going through the woods, where, long after it had disappeared from view, its light could still be seen reflected on and above the tree-tops. Can any one tell what it was ? claim, i moreover, that the alleged settle ment is clearly an admission of lia bility on the part of the railroad, and in nowise relieves it from the responsi bility of suit to recover fees claimed by counsel for the plaintiffs. I’. F. Smith, P. 11. Brewster and P. S. Whatley were employed by plaintiffs to bring suit against the railroad company, and as settlement was made with their clients without notice to them, (plaintiff’s at torneys) they will proceed with the cases as if no settlement had been ef fected. They seem to have the bulk of the law on their side, and the issue (which is an unusual one, under the cir cumstances,) will be watched with interest by the profession. A meeting of the bar was held in the Court-house last night to consider the application of Messrs. AY'. II. Bingham and J. I). Berry for ad mission into fellowship with the legal guild, they having formally pre sented themselves for examination. Messrs. A. D. Freeman, P. II. Brewster, AY'. Y. Atkinson and B. T. Thompson were appointed a committee to examine the candidates, who were subjected to a rigid catechism on the various sub jects embraced in the civil and criminal practice. The young gentlemen sus tained themselves admirably, and were strongly recommended for admission by the committee. They will be for mally admitted to-day or to-morrow. The grand jury is an exceptionally able and competent body, and there is no apprehension that the interests of the county will suffer at their hands. Mr. AAL A. Mitchell is foreman, and is so impartial and fair in his rulings that he leans both ways on all questions. It is thought now that this body will conclude its labors by to-morrow* and adjourn for the session. In addition to the local bar, the fol lowing well-knovm legal lights have been in attendance this w r eek: AY'. A. Post, Geo. A. Carter and R. I. O’Kel ley, of Grantville; Spalding, of Atlanta; II.

Deceased was for many years a prominent citizen of this place, and up to the day of his death cherished a warm attachment for his old home and friends. He leaves two children—Mrs. George Sponcler, of this city,' and Mrs. H. P. AA’oodroff, of Bolton—both of whom were with him during the last few days of his illness. His death occux*red at Cedartown, where he had resided about five years and where he was held in high esteem by all who knew him.
