Dluturbliig Public Worship,
On last Monday night while Nancy Gatlin was
plucking the wool out of another negro woman's
head to make, we suppose, & tittle shoo thread,
some of the worshipers at the colored Baptist
ehurdi were disturbed, and Nancy hks to answer
to hU Honor Judge Hardin for her perversity.
We think the Judge will convince Nancy that
pulling wool this season of the year is against
the statute in such cases made aud provided.
More Steal lug.
A strolling negrose entered by a window the
room of the cook at our boarding house anti ad
ministered on the estate of the said cook, o far
to her wardrobe was concerned, taking ari article
which she prized very highly, judging from the
excitement its absence produced. We dou'l know
t the names or all the articles that ladies w>r, tlita
wav—well, a what yon me call it, we will find
out at the trial the name*, as the garment has
been reclaimed and the thief is under arrest.
Weather and Crop*.
We regret to have to change our report of the
crops made last weak. We reported them then as
they were with a hope that we would soon have a
rain ; up to that time no serious injury had been
sustained by the long, continuous, hot and dry
weather, but it had then endured all that it
could ; rain would have saved both corn and cot
ton then, but another weeks unmitigated boat
and drought has in many places utterly ruined
the corn and seriously injured the cotton. If
the drought continues another week we need not
look for more than & half a crop of cotton.
Reference,
We call attention to the card of Dr. T. B.
Little, of Thom as villa, which appears in another
column. The Dr. is, perhaps the oldest dental
surgeon in Southern Georgia; scarcely one in
the State can boast of more experience in the
profession, none that oan produce a clearer re
cord as to satisfaction given. The, most compli
cated and difficult jobs have been dispatched by
him without the slightest difficulty on account <• f
his skill aud experience, and tbemos* perfect sat
isfaction in all instances given. The Dr.’s repu
tation as a dentist and as a gentleman need* no
comment. Refer to his card ami then go to iiis
office and he will do the good.

Postmortem oh iht* Body of W. It. Colter,
t Tnllokav, July lfl. 1873.
Death caused by a gunshot wound—a conical
ball, supposed to be from a Smith X Wesson pis
tol, about one-quarter inch iu diameter and one
half-inch long. The ball entered one and a half
inches.from the sternum near the lower edge of
the cartilage of the seventh rib, on the left bide,
gting obliquely downward and inward, entering
the abdomen near the left edge of the mini form
cartilage, continuing its course obliquely down
ward and backward penetrating tbe left lobe of
the liver at its front edge about the width of the
ball, on tin* upper surface and- lacerating its in
ferior surface about two inches from the rouud
• ligament; also cutting the stomach on the su
perior and posterior surface, near the pyloric ex
tremity,through the peritoneal and partly through
the muscular coat at both places; passing on
downward through the pa*cries and penetrating
the ascending colon on its posterior aspect, con
sequently spilling the contents of that bowel in
discriminately. This bowel was penetrated mar
and bruising considerably the pelvis of the right
kidney. Thence the hall passed outward, mak
ing an exit through the walls of the abdomen
about equidistant between the crest of the iliium
and the interior rib of the right side, two inches
from the spiue of the second lumbar vertebra.

Cooper Campbell, Secretary,
The Lltlle B’urglar,
For several evenings past Mr. J. B. Finch hail j
been missing money from his drawer which he
believed was taken while he and his clerk was gone |
to supper, as ho would leave money in the j
drawer and return and find it rifled. So on Mon
day evening; he apprised Mr. John Thrasher of j
the fact, who in both sheriff and marshal, anti he- ;
tween the two the following plan was adopted :
Mr. Thrasher concealed himself in the store and
Mr. F. and his cierk closed the store and went to
supper. Soon the little fellow came down the
stairs and went to the well-known drawer arid
commenced helping himself, when Mr. Thrasher
laid bis hand upon him. His manner of ingress
is most remarkable i at the rear of the store
there was a ladder standing up against the wall
some six.feet from the window; he ascended the
ladder until he would get level with a little brick
corhice some three and a half inches wide, then
he would take hold of that and suspend his body
some fifteen feet from the ground by this most
precarious support, and move a hand at a time
until be could reach Hie window and get a iiet ter
hold, and then spring np by the strength of his
arms and enter through the sash out of whicli a
pane had been broken. Of course bis egress was
by the same route. Is there any excuse V Are
there any mitigating circumstances in this case?
We think there are: the little boy had no employ
ment ; there was nothing he could get to do ; he
is the son of a poor widow who labors hard for a
living, and doubtless the portr little boy sympa
thised with her in her tiard struggles to support
him in his idleness. It may be that he did it to
help her. Certainly no motive other than the
love of a mother could have induced him thus to
imperil his life. No doubt if be gave it to her he
told ber an untruth as to how he obtained it, for
she is said to he not only industrions but scrupu
lously honest. We do not wish to be understood
to say that his mother was suffering, for -Ilf has
formerly lived on the premise* efCapt. J. G. Mc-
Call, whose wife has been very kind to tho
poor widow* and her little orpnans ; nevertheless
she was poor and had to work hard, and the lit
tle boy in his love of mother tried indis
creteiy and in a mostinjndicious way to help her.
While the law has taken its course and justice
fully meted out to him, we can’t help but feel
sorry for the little boy and his poor mother. The
kindest provisions have been made for him ; Mr-
James King, who is a good man, has consented
to take him and keep him during the servitude.

Correspondence Between the Quttmun Ex
< unionists and Mr. J, YV. Craig, liouit
Master A. A U R. R., and Manager of the
Kxcurslon to Jacksonville and St. Au
gust In e, on the ITth ult.
The presentation by the said excursionists of
a beautiful gold medal designed by our fellow
citizen, W. E. Barnes, (who is a jeweler, and in
such matters invariably displays the most ex
quisit taste). Ho was not only the originator of
the design, but the first to propose to make the
present. We believe that all the party equally as
much as Mr. Barnes appreciated the gentlemanly
and courteous attention of Mr. Craig, and were
equally as liberally inclined to display it, but
perhaps would never have thought of it. The
medal was beautifully engraved—on one side a
train of cars under which is written in a scroll,
“Excursion, June 17, 1875 ; w on the other side,
“J. W. Craig, from the Quitman, Qa., Excursion
ists.*’
The following is the correspondence : ,
Quitman, Ga.. July 22,1875.
Afr. J. W. oraig y Hoad Master A. & G. Tt. It:
Dear Sir We, the undersigned recipients of
your many favors, as wards of your vigilance and
ears pending the excursion along the line
of the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad to Jacksonville,
aud thence up the Hi. John's river, Florida, on
the loth, lf>th and 17tli ult., tender you this gold
medal as a token of our appreciation of your un
tiring efforts for our safety and happiness on
that occasion. We trust that you will accept ami
wear it, not appreciating its intrinsic value, but
the spirit of friendship, won by your courtesy
and gentlemanly bearing.
The delay of this presentation was unavoida
ble, on account of having the medal made to
order in New York.
Very respect full,

Gentlemen -To sav that I wn* surprised at be
ing the recipient, of the medal and letter of
thanksjse kindly and unostentatiously sent me by
you, on behalf of the “Quitman excursionists,*
would inadequately express my feelings; not
only because inch an expression of your good
will was unexpected, but because I know that it
is a genuine expression of your friendship not
only for me* but also ter the. corporation which I
represented. Believe me, gentlemen, that I
shall treasure it as a numiuato of the pleasant
aud happy time spent with you, and so long ns
memorv lasts I shall endeavor to hold it ami the
occasion of which it speaks as firmly ill recollec
tion as the iron arms of onr company bind you to
ns, commercially and fraternally. Relievo me
gentleraer,
ionrs with great respect,
J. W. Craig,
Hoad Master.
For the Ladies.
A bride's Teil.now must just reach below
the waist.
Dress sleeves are worn closer to the arm
than ever.
The sleeves of eveing dresses should never
bo lined.
A cuirass front should have whalebones
to the end of the darts.
Keal thread lace is so well imitated that
it is mow preferred altogether.
The newest fringe is a netted fringe,
with a deep heading and without beads.
Little Helms of grandine, edged with
lace or fringe, are seen on imported grena
dines.
It is nn unusual thing to find lower
skirts msde of gremidine, unless it is white
for evening wear.
Combination suits are still in favor, and
is predicted they will be worn again next
fall and winter.
Velvet-barred grenadine over a velvet
underskirt, is a suitable dress for the sea
side evening toilettes,
Fringes of the most intricate and fanci
ful designs, are now in the market for
trimming light and heavy goods.
Fair and monied ladies wear their ini
tials in diamonds upon black velvet neck
lets of an evening and for balls.
Very few cuffs are now seen on dresses
tbe main trimming being knife pleatingx
turned towards the baud.
Tho full shirred overskirt should not
be worn by stout ladies ; also they should
avoid pleated basques aud puffed sleeves.
Polonaises are not entirely out of date,
but they are so little worn ; it would be a
risk to cut up new material into one.
The Scotch plaid shawl is still popular
to travel with, and a shawl of some kind
should always be carried even at midsum
mer,
A simple land yet most stylish wedding
dress is of white gross grain silk of tbe
creamy shade, trimmed with fino knife
pleatings of white tulle.
The most recent traveling gloves are of
dogskin, double stitched and finished with
the gauntlet. They do not soil easily, and
are therefore, preferred to all others.
Shoes used for travelling should have
low, broad english heel. The material is
either kid or morocco, but for light easy
wear tho French morocco is preferred.
Titan wool braid is still much used, and
Borneo! the newest imported dresses are
trimmed with rows upbn rows of it edged
with fringe, either crimped or tasseled.
Ladies and children’s dusters for pro
tecting traveling suits are made like the
gentlemen’s Ulster overcoat. There are
others that conceal the entire dress, but
none so much as the Ulster.
One of the most stylish designs for the
back of basques is where the seam to the
side form extends to the shoulder, and
having also two sido bodies. They fit
neatly, and to fat persons are extremely
beconing.
A Trench style of silk stocking is of
lemon color, embroidered with a spray of
small red currants, or a bunch of black
currants upon the instep. For ball toi
lettes, open-work silk stockings arc the
last expression of elegance.
Brown and white gingham suits, also
persales in small checks, are very stylish,
and desiiable for going about short jour
neys or for morning shopping, also strolls
in the country. They are also seen at
breakfast and at the sea shore.
A plain jockey basque plain piped on
the edge, and a short walking with two or
three pleatiugs, complete a tasteful suit.
The apron is the simple round front anil
plain back, which is gaining much favor
over the puffs so much worn in early
spring.
Baseball has demoralized Hartford. The
careful Clemens has bought a seat in the
grand stand ; the clergy have seasoned
tickets ; and, worse than all, one enthusi
astic family lias removed the cushions
Irom its church pews and applied them to
alleviating the agony of a ten-inning game.
An exchange tells a story about a shop
keeper who advised a lady customer to
bny two mohair switches instead of one,
as the article was becoming Bcarce. He
said that the man lie had hired to hunt
moes had only cangbt two within a fort
night.

other drugs for sale low at
