We chronicle amithe* truth that the cit
m-lis of Brooks county will endorse. That
is that Mr. Jnnoii Mania was’cno of the
first settlers of the town of Quitman, ami
one of the first merchants to Open a stock
of goods in the place. And from the open
ing of his first stock, MV. Bantu, for he was
n stranger, has been gaining the respect
and grotvijig in the confidence of the |x-o
ple. Pending the War Mr. 15. took a man
ly stand for Southern independence, and
with life hard darned and carefully saved
means he was as liberal in its distribution
among the needy and jiorticulftrly to the
soldiers’ families, as any native of the
Month, and whenever called on by the
country of his adoption he readily answer
ed the call in person and rendered valua
ble service to Ms coiiutry iinde the War.—
Mr. B. commencing like all others, with
but limited means, by his fair and upright
dealings, still retains the confidence of his
' friends add shares & liberal patronage,. In
all public and benevolent enterprises, there
la no citizen exeella him in liberality, and
in case of suffering humanity there is none
more sympathetic and benevolent, and by
the many demonstrations of a kind heart,
he hits gained the kind regard and confi
dence of the people and is now one of the
prominent merchants of the place. We
call attention to his advertisement in an
other column, which will fully show the
character of his busines and his capacity
as a merchant, in the selection of a stock
adopted to the wants and tastes of the peo
ple. Give him a call and examine his stock

The question is settled and no man will
now dispute it. Upon a proposition so
plain, no issue can be made and sustained
iu debate, that Mr. John Tillman bus
bought, opened and is now otloriug for
sale, one of the largest, and certainly one
of tho best selected stock of goods, over
brought to this market, and tho only way
to assertion the truth of our assertion, is
for the people to call and examine for
themselves. Mr. Tillman is a gonial gon
tloinun, and will bo pleased to make a dis
play of his nt all times and to every

who equals him in urbanity and courtesy,

A BrAVr, Black Omsvurr. —Six Or eight
hkuwl of wild Texas steers broke out of a
lot adjoinifig the penitentiary yesterday,
and for a sliolt time created a panic in
that vicinity. Two of the vicious beasts
pursued a young lady on her way home
from school, and would have undoubtedly
gored and trampled her to death, but for
the timely assistance of a negro convict,
named Stephenson, who, at the risk of his
own life, headed off the infuriated cattle
and threw the young girl over a high pa
ling fence into S yard, whence she escaped
into a residence near by. —Jefferson City
Dispatch.

in this way during the last week, and

How We Lived Before tho Revolution.
Tho costumes of the day wore rich aud
showy. The judges wore iu Massachu
setts scarlet robes with facings and cuffs
of black velvet, and po adored wigs
adorned with black silk bags. Their
robes in summer were of black silk. In
1774 the sheriff of York, now iu Maine,
came out to meet tho count, coming on a
circuit with six of liis deputies," all with
gold laced hats, ruffles, swords, etc. Nor
did legid gentlemen monopolize bravo np
parol. The overseers of Harvard College
in 1754 hail to forbid the students to wear
gold anil silver loco or brocade. Laced
and embroidered garments of velvet and
flowered silk were commonly found in
gentlemen’s wardrobes, and there was one
solid man of Boston, a thrifty merchant,
who went about his Business iu greed W
purple gold. Wigs gave place to quoin's
when it was soon that tho officers of Brad
dock’s army did not wear tho former.
Artisans wore leathern aprons, and serv
ing maids were known by short gowns of
domestic stuff. What would they have
thought of the satin and silk which
Bridget deems her prerogative ? Tho
ladies, according to Copley, preferred rod
satin and pearls to any other toilet. Red,
iudecd, seem to'havo been a favorite color
with them, for tho authorities of Phila
delphia, in order to drive red cloaks out of
use (for what reason we don't know), took
tho novel but effective method of dressing
a woman in one to go to the gallows.
The authorities of the Quaker City seem,
indeed, to have thought it quite their duty
to correct tho fashions, for on another
occasion they sought to make tho “tower”
head-dress ridiculous by sitting it on a
very tall man’s hond and marching him
through the streets to the sound of n
drum. Here is a hint for the dress refor
mer. Low necked dresses were an
abomination iu Boston as long ago as
1091. It is no wonder the public has nt
last, got used to them.
Food was cheap. In 1740 meat in Bos
ton retailed at two pcnco a pound, and a
twelve pound cod could bo bought for tho
same. Salmon weighing two pounds sold
for a shilling. Chocolate was rnoro used
than coffee.. Teetotalism had not been
invented. Cider was three shillings a
barrel and universally drank at meals iu
Massachusetts. Flip and toddy were
sinful drinks also much in vogue with our
abandoned ancestors. Madeira was the
favorite wine all over the country, and
rum punch found favor without distinc
tion of party. The students of Harvard
were allowed “iu a sober manner to enter
tain one another and strangers with it,”
the corporation haviug decided rum
punch “as it is now commonly made, on
intoxicating liquor.” Now-a-days Massa
chusetts courts decide lager beer to be
intoxicating. Can it be that our heads
are so much weaker than onr fathers?
There were plenty of chances to wet one’s
whistle in those days. One house in
every ten in Philadelphia solo drink, in
-1774, Bo the grand jury found.— -Onlaxy
A Riot That Happened Thirty-three
Years A^o.
But no Federal Troops Were Called for,
Our old friend Harper, of the Raymond
Uazetie, has been shown a copy of the
Raymond Times, dated September 17,
1811, or nearly thirty-three yearn ago.—
Among other items of interest found re
corded in the colnms of the Times, the
following is unite suggestive just now.—
The <Jvslie says:
“The paper contains an account of a riot
at. Cincinnati between the whites and
blacks. Mono three thousand whits* aa
•tumbled and drove, all the "negroes.-of the*
city from the streets, compelling them to
leave the town or to take refuge in hiding
places. A cannon was brought out by the
whites and fired down the streets in the
negro part of the. town, killing and wound -
ing many negroes. The Philanthropist
printing office, which’sided with the no
groes, Was entirely destroyed, and the edi

there were then, and are now, about forty

found in the place. Though the white
people “drove all the negroes of the city
from the streets, conipeUfiig them to leave
town or tako refuge hi hiding . places;”
though they brought out a cannon and
“fired down the streets, killing and

“Philanthropist printing office was entire

nati or the Governor of Ohio made an ap
peal to the President of the Unibid States
for troops, that they proposed to declare
martial law, or that Ohio was threatened
with the obliteration of Htatc lines and
-State government. Vicksburg Herald.
An Unparalleled Case.
The last act of one of the most remarka
ble tragedies in real life that modern soci
ety has ever witnessed was finished fit;
Santa Rosa to-day, by tho conviction of a
man named Geiger of murder in the finds
degree. A man and his .wife buv.a ranch
and Set themselves industriously at work
to get an honest living from tho property.
They arc both reputable citizens. Two
men are tho proprietors of an adjoining
ranch, and want to get possession of their
neighbors’ property. The owners will not
part with it. A system of persecution and
annoyance, is inaugurated, with the hope
to drive them away. It fails. Then a con
spiracy is formed which succeeds in the
conviction of tho husband of a felony
which ho Revel committed. The poor fel
low is sent to State prison, lj.is wife, a
perfect heroine, sticks to tho ranch and is
determined to hold her ground till her
husband shall be restored to liberty. The
two villains put upon her every indignity
and injury which deviltry can suggest, and
finally murder her and hide the body in a
running stream, covered with heavy
stones. A search is made and the murder
ed woman.is found- Murder will out.
Circumstances point unerringly to the
gnilty parties. The whole hellish plot
dawns upon the mind Of the community.
The murderers barely escaped lynching. —
The husband is released from State prison.
Tho tide is turned now- Justice comes at
last. But it can not do ope half the work
that it ought. The other murderer will,
no doubt, go the saroe road as tjie one
that was convicted to-day. —San Francis

A Singular Bosnaws Auiunokmunt.
An incident which has recently occurred
in Pittsburg, furnishes a striking illustra
tion of what faith iu human nature will
do. One Wm. Nelson haviug beeu unfor
tunate in business, some of his friends
have filed in tho Recorder's office an infor
mal paper, by which they bind themselves
to contribute the sum annexed to their sev
eral signatures, to aid him in recovering
his position in the mercantile world. He
is to render an annual account of his dis-
Inisition of tho money thus subscribed,
that liis benefactors may see how it is ox
ilemling. Out of the proceeds arising
from his investments ho is to bo allowed a
sum sufficient for the economical mainten
ance of himself and family, and in easo of
his death, liis wife is authorized to otiu
duot iu his stead whatever business Itcmay
have established. This arrangement is to
continue for five years, iiud Nelson is to
work under tho supervision of a trustee,
who will hold the funds for his benefit.
An Eastern panel tolls a story of a
young woman of .limtttefllioro, who sent a
frioml to buy her a jiair qf shoes: “She
told her friend to get number fives, but her
friend, being anxious to secure a good fit
for her, ordered the storskoepor to change
the marks on a pair of sevens. Ho did so,
and the lady said they fitted better than
any she liml hail for along time."
The Chinese servans in California, it is
related, are in the lmliit of posting on tho
cellar door or wood shed or pantry locker,
little bits of red paper with a few Chinese
characters on them. In this way they no
tify their successors of the characters of
their employers. A gentleman of Stock
ton; who hod find trouble* ith his servants,
recently engaged a hew *bok, hut tlie man
had no sooner gone into the kitchen than
upon reading one of those insignificant bits
of paper ho turned and fled from the house.
Onjlieing followed liy the master, who asked
what was tho matter, he said: "Me no wan
tee hero stop— wnninß hero talkeo bod—
quick, longfUmgno—pay no monee—workee
all day—me go.” And ho went.
