The ease will most probably be reached the last of this or the lirst of next week. The Quitman factory, under the new or ganization, will in a few weeks bo in oper ation with its new and improved looms re cently pill-chased by the President, Dr. Henry Briggs, in the North.

Some to mourn for their first born and some to mourn foi they don’t know what. i —.♦- Our final Bhlc, On Friday of hist week, Mr. R, I. Den mark, one of our most energetic and suc cessful planters, brought to town a bale of new and beautiful staple, which lie sold to Mr. J. L Beatie, for 14 cents, he being the highest bidder. That's right, Beatie, keep tip the price of the produce of our country, if possible. Wo hud hoped for the sake of our country, that the markets would open at higher prices. Oar Merchant!, A number of our merchants havo gone North to make their fall and winter pur chases. Messrs. Mabbett, Rountree and D. R. Oreeoh, were tho first to go. Messrs. Gazan, Finch, and McCall and Ives, left Boon after. Others will soon follow in their wake ; Hay ton is trying his best to get ready, and Jacob knows the right time to go, and is waiting for it. We aro look ing for large stocks of goods, and a heavy trade this fall. Out planters' ootton all belong to them this year ; they can keep it or sell it, just as they choose, not be forced to sell at low flgnres to pay for sup plies. Excursion. By reforenoe to an advertisement in an other column, it will be seen that at all stations on this road excursion tickets to Savannah and rotnm will bo sold at one fonrth tho nsnal fare, fifty cents added. This ticket will also entitle the holder to visit tho Isle of Hope on the 24th in' t. The grand spelling boo will bo given on that day at that, place, contest open to the whole State, and handsome prizes to be There will 1- favorable oppor tunities for visiting other places of celebrity near the city pending the excursion. This is certainly a very favorable opportunity for visiting the city. There arc but few that cannot avail tbf mstlves of this oppor tunity an a matter of pleasure. Many can combine with it business, and make it pro fitable as well as pleasant. Tho company is very liberal in this offer, and we think and hope in this instance that the patron age will be sufficient to justify a repetition of this liberality. The excursion train will be under the supervision of competent and careful men. Now ia theopportunity for a oheap pleasnro trip. Befer to the advertisement for particulars as to time. Surgical. A most critical surgical operation was performed on Tuesday last by Dr. E. A. Jelks, in removing a stoDe from the blad der of a little boy ton years old, the son of the Rev. Win. Price, (colored). The stono removed is shaped very nearly like a hen’s egg, and fully as large as the medium size, measuring 5i inches in circumference one way and H the other, and weighiug something over two ounces. Considering the immense size of the deposit and the size of the little sufferer, the operation had to he performed in the most eminently skillful manner or the result would ueces- ; sarily have been fatal. The little patient : is doing well ; his sufferings have been great and of long duration. He was the object of the constant care aDd anxiety of sympathetic parents, but with the end of his suffering their anxiety is partially re lieved. Wc hope the little boy may he restored to his anxious parents in good health and never suffer from that cause again. This is the second deposit Dr. Jelks has removed from this little sufferer. Drs. Carswell, Briggs and Wilkerson was present and rendered Dr. Jelks, the oper ator, such assistance as the nature of the case required. We now take pleasure in assuring onr readers that we have surgeons equal to any emergency, and cannot he ex celled anywhere. Quitman Acadtmy, The fall term of this most excellent school will commence on Monday, the 30th instant. This institution is under the su pervision of Prof. R. V. Forrester, who possesses in an eminent degree, the quali fications 6f mind aud qualities of heart, to fit him for the very responsible position. We hope to see a fullfioliool of young men and yonng Indies. Wo have ovory facility for building up a high Reliool; wo only lack the energy to work for it ; wo have a delightful climate, pure water, excellent society, board for young ladies or young gentlemen either, in the very best of fami lies at very moderate prices. What other inducement can be offered ? What town in Ooorgia can equal those ? Make applica tion early to Prof. Forrester, or somo of your friends, and he or they will procure board where every comfort aud conven ience will be enjoyed. Un.: Hull. , The contest between the “Socials" of Quitman, and tho “Southwestern," of Thomasville, came off on yesterday. Tho game was called at 1:110, with “So cials” at the bat, having lost tho “toss." Mr. Shine, of Thomasville, umpire. Game called on tho Bth inuiug, on account of dark; score, “Socials," 4:1 “Southwes tern," 20. Finest playing of "Socials” by Finlay on, Harris and Carroll. Finlay | sou's rifle balls was too swift for the •Sontli westerns’” skill and strength. The “Socials” did not show their full strength, playing far below their average. The umpire, Mr. Shine, gave perfect sat isfaction, manifesting entire disintereoted tioss and impartiality. Sandy Provatt won for liimsclf a great name, by his Itiud nesH to our boys. The “Southwesterns" propose to play i the “Socials" on Friday, of next w eek, at ! Quitman. We hope thft “Socials" will - meet them at the depot aud escort them to comfortable quarters, and treat them with that courtesy aud hospitality due to invited guests. TELEGRAPHIC.

C., August 10. — Parker was brought to Columbia to day, arriving here about 8 o’clock. Andy Johnson, the ! colored man who was taken with him, | wri brought too, arid both are now in jail. ; Parker made a statement in jail that ho 1 escaped through the scuttle hole and at- Itempod to climb down the lightning rod, lint fell when uWont thirty feet from tho gronud. and hurt himself severely, lie fell again in climbing over tho fence in attempting to make his way to those who were to meet. him. He saw people either standing or walking in whatever direction 1 lie went and fear of being recognized | caused him to avoid them. This delayed | him so long that when ho reached the ap j pointed place of meeting his friends had gone, and ho did not see them at all. lie | did not say who they were or where they were to meet him. lie made his way alone to tho house of a colored worr-mi, near tho eastern edge of the city, and while there met with Andy Johnson. He sent Andy into town for several things, nmongat them a map. When Andy re turned, snspecting that ho had betrayed him, lie forced him to go with lute, lie hired a colored man, whose house Ire came upon, to carry them in a wagon to Cam den. After they had crossed the bridge ho sent tho wagon bank, and attempted to walk into Camden. Soon after the wagon left tbev found themselves surrounded and then arrested by two Camden policemen, Parker supposes thnt tho wagon driver be trayed him. He said ho approached the house of one of his friends in Columbia, and saw him standing on tho piazza anil called to him to come to him. His friend inquired who he was. He answered, “I am Captain Parker.” The reply was, “Don’t come here, go away.” lie was afraid to go near anyone else. NEW COS TON.

Page, who resided near Heard’s store in Dawson county, on last Thursday week, the 29th nit. Mr. A. J. Kedey recently erected a new circular saw on Hollow creek, near the Cherokee line, and Mr. Page having never j seen a circular saw in operation went over to see it. When the stock had been put j on and the saw had cut off the first slab, j Mr. Page aud his neighbor. Mr. Nelems, picked up the slab to carry it off, when the saw caught the slab and jerked Mr. Page against the saw, which inflicted a j wound that killed him instantaneously, i The saw struck him between the point of right shoulder and neck, ripping his body open to the lower part of his breast bone, exposing his lungs, while the quivering flesh was covered with his life's blood. He leaves a wife and two or three children to mourn his untimely and sad taking off. [Marietta Journal.
