Crops in this section are very good, but we are beginning to need rain, and without it we will suffer. The oat and wheat crop are harvested and stowed away and found to be short, but what there is of it is fine. Death of a Good Man. D.vwsos, July 10.—Dawson lost at 10 o’clock Thursday morning, one of her best and most prominent citizens, Mr. Moses H. Baldwin, Sr. For several months he has been great sufferer, and when the wheels of life stopped it was a release to a weary spirit. He died at the ripe age of seventy-one years. In early life he was a citizen of your county, and for long years he has been a resident of this section—one of the first settlers of Dawson. His life was a busy and useful one, and during that life he filled many trusts of responsi bility, and was found faithful in them all. Osaths In Fort Vnllry. Fokt Valley, July 10.—Mrs. Ann J. Miller, an old and highly respected lady, was buried yesterday evening at Oak Lawn Cemetery. One of tbe saddest deaths we have had in a long time was that of Mr. W. H. Houser, who died at his father's res idence, about seven miles of this place, last night at half-past 13 o'clock. His disease was said to have been pluro- pneumonia. His wife died about three months ago from the effects of a burn. Mr. Houser leaves two little orphan children who have the deepest sympa thies of this entire section. His burial will take place in Perry to-morrow at 12 o’clock. All friends desiring to at tend can go down on the Perry passen ger which leaves this place at 11 o’clock a. m. HILLING IN MORGAN. Mr. Cal Cordon Shot Dead by a Bar- K«« p.r Nam.a Crawford. Yesterday, meagre news reached Athens of a killing that happened on Tuesday evening last near High Shoals, just over the Morgan line. It seems that for some time there had been bad blood between Mr. Cal Gordon and a man named Crawford, who owns a bar room about two miles from tbe factory, and on the day of the killing both par ties met at the Shoals, and were re turning home when the difficulty was renewed that culminated in Crawford drawing a pistol and shooting Gordon through the head, killing him instant ly. Oor informant does not even know whether or not Crawfqrd has been ar rested, but says there is considerable excitement over the matter in the neighborhood.—Athene Banner. THE UIQ FOURTH. What Is Said About the Fouith In Macon nod Atlanta. IN ATLANTA. Some of our boys said all they could see in Atlanta on the glorious fourth were houses and negroes.—Ellijay Cou rier. The big excursion trains on tho Fourth were crowded with negroes. Three hundred and five cheap tickets were sold at the Atlanta depot by Mr. Ramey.—Sewnan Uerald. Saturday morning early the whole face of the earth around the depot was a solid mass of surging negroes waiting for ”de acussion.” With no seats or water, these people packed themselves cholera-infected port. Tlio suspected vessel was sighted yesterday, and all her crew are reported to be in excellent health. She will bo taken to Sapelo Island.—Bruntwick Brtc:c. Tcsavd by a Cow. Late yesterday afternoon when Mr. Shepperton, one of tho salesmen of Pescock's clothing manufactory, went to bis home on lower Jackson street he found that hla little child bad been toseed by a cow and seriously injured.

Mr. Thomas Christmas and Miss Ophelia Murray, two young hearts of near this place, became so closely linked together by the unbounded chords of love that tney resolved, some time ago, to share each other’s destiny through life for better or worse, but as it met the rigid disapproval of her father, and he having gone to Ordinary Hargrove and officially forbidden him to issue license, etc., they were at quite a loss to know how to secure the end of their idol of happiness and reach the true regions of wedlock. At length last Friday evening an opportu nity offered itself.

A DCNCEROUS HOLE. Man Is Saved from Drowning Wh'ls Sinaloa tne Last Time. Mr. Geo. J. Willis had a very nar row escape from being drowned at Me ~ nta'a millpond on Tuesday. Itwai pected that the pond would bo drawn on on Tuesday, and several gentlemen left Butler in the morning for a seining expedition. On arriving Messrs. Wil lis, Hudson, Gostin and others entered the pond with their seine. When ont In the pond some distance, Mr. Willis suddenly stepped into a hole where the water was considerably over his head. Being unable to swim he had a renr narrow escape from being drowned. Mr. Hudson did all he could to save Mr. Willis, but seeing that both were likely to be drowned he released his bold upon the drowning man, and twice he sank. Other gentlemen be ing near at hand seized hold of Mr. Willis as he waa in tbe act of sinking his third and last time, and he was safely rescued by being placed in a bateau.—Butler Uerald. into these cars like sardines in a box. and suffered through a long ride in order to see the wonderful sights Atlanta had advertised, but failed to show. There is never a fourth of July that passes but one or more lives sre sacrificed to the greed of the railroads and the ly ing circulars sent out from Atlanta in tbe name of patriotism. Somebody is responsible for this state of affairs. If Atlanta, she is degrading herself in the sight of all good men, and doing her- elf more injury by these practices than can possibly be gained by one day of g reat influx of penniless negroes into er gates. If sne is not responsible, then she should call the parties to ac count who would use her good name to further their own interest.—Fairturn Seict. IN MACON. The boys say they had a big time in Macon on the Fourth.—Telfair Timet.' Eastman was well represented in Macon on the Fourth, and all enjoyed the occasion. Macon never does any thing by halves—it always goes tbe whole hog or none.—Eattman Timet. The Central railroad ran an excur sion train from Katonton to Macon, and many persona along the line avail ed themselves of the opportunity to at- end tho grand celebration of the birth day of Liberty in tho beautiful Central City. People living alongtheFcorgia ilroad availed themselves of a like opportunity aflorded by the regular trams on this road at reduced fare.— Milledgeville Union. The Fourth of July excursionists to Macon, Ga., returned by Sunday after noon train. Owing to the many who left for the springs and points North on account of the low rates to Macon, the train was densely crowded in going to Macon, but on the return the excur sionists had more room and a much more pleasant time. They speak of having had a most interesting trip and they saw sights innumerable. The “devil” of the Times says it was worth two dollars just to sit on the top of the Confederate monument and cat ground peas and watch the crowd go by. Abont 10,000 persons were in the Cen tral Park grounds during the fourth, 8.000 tickets being sold at the gate. This will net the Public Library not less than <1,000 cash. The fourth in Macon was s grand success, and every thing passed off pleasantly and to tne delight of the vast crowd in attendance. The Telegra™ and Messenger of tbe 5th instant gives four and a half col umns to a notice of the celebration in that city, and its Atlanta correspond ent gives Henry Grady and Atlanta generally a heavy blizzard for the hum- buggery in the way of a celebration in that city.—Eufaufa Timet. make the trip successfully, without losing his balance and falling through between the ties into the river far be low, which, of course, would mean certain death. Two of the cowboys— more reckless than their companions— rode their horses upon the track at a rapid gait, and then, in single file, dashed on to the bridge and made for the other aide, flying along on the na*- row plank walk juat as if they were rscing across the prairie after an ob streperous bovine. The spectators were thrilled with horror, and expected to see tiie two daring men dashed to death at every jump the horses made. The riders yellod vociferously, and rode with tbo same easy confidence they always dis- lay when at homo upon the plains. >ne of them was somewhat in advance of tho other, and the passengers were astonished and their suspense greatly relieved when he reached tbe other side safely and gave vent to a regular yell of triumph. Bat his companion was not so lucky. He was within thlr ty yards of tho end of the bridge—go. ing at foil speed—when his horse stumbled. The rider was seen to sway to and fro for a few seconds, and to make a desperate effort to pull the ani mal on its feet again, and then both went down in a heap. The crowd of on-lookers, with one impulse, gave vent to a cry of terror, and a number of people started ont on the bridge to render assistance to the unfortunate fellow. -But almost immediately the fallen cowboy arose, helped the horse upon its feet—in some miraculous way —mounted, and cleared the remaining space with a rash, yelling like a demon as he flew down the track on the other side, in hot pursuit of his companion, who was almost out of sight, and run ning as if he were trying to get out of the way of a cyclone. If horse or rider was injured, neither showed signs of it from the distance that intervened. The cowboy must have had the skin scraped off his shanks at any rate. Evidently the horse fell over on its side on the board walk, and manai to keep its legs free from the spaces tween the ties, thus saving itself from serious injury. It was one of ths most foolhardy feats on record. ed It, and I'm a killer!

The funeral of Mrs. Mary Jane Mor gan, tho widow of Charles Morgan, of this city, who died on Friday, will take place this afternoon from the church of the Transfiguration. She waa not quite sixty and waa married to Mr, Morgan when he was a widower more than thirty years ago. Mrs. Morgan had a passion tor works ot art and hey lavish purchases in tbia direction made her famous in spite of herself. Her four-story brown-stone house, No. 7 East Twenty-sixth street, was a verita ble wonderland ot paintings, bric-a- brac, ceramics and a bewildering vari ety of gold and silverware.

Considerable excitement was created at Howard Tuesday morning. A negro man was discovered by Mr. Css tie- berry about suerise in tbe woods asleep, with a pistol and valise lying near him. Mr. Castleberry, noticing tbe peculiar appearance of the negro, supposed it to be Jease Cook. He at onco made known the fact, and a num ber of gentlemen armed with guns, proceeded to where the negro was seen. The woods were very thick, and tho gentlemen were enabled to get very near tbe negro before they were discovered. He was immediately ordered to aorrendcr, and throw ing up hi* bands he made a desperate lnnge through tbe bushes, and was soon out of sight. His pistol and valise were 'secured, in which was found a suit of clolbea, two pings of to bacco, a bible and several letters. From the letter* it was evidently seen that his name was Fhlt.

When the train stopped at Medora, the headqoarters of tbe Marquis de Mores and Theodore Roose velt, some ten or a dozen cowboys mounted on their typical horses of the plains, were cutting all kinds of capers and giving a sort of free show, for the edification and amusement of the citi zens and passengers.

A newly married couple were en route to Washington by the Baltimore and Ohio. There are many tunnels on this road on the other side of the Ohio river. All through Ohio the face of the young man wore occasional looka of pain, despite his great joy. He seemed to want something. Appar ently he yearned. Over in West Vir ginia the train entered a tunnel. Upon emerging the young man’s face waa seen to wear a studious expres sion. He was thinking. At first he seemed perplexed, then Interested, then triumphant. Ho bad had a reve lation. Then he smiled with a firm, manly continuous smile, and his eyes peered ahead for the first side of a yawning cavern in the mountain side. The bride was happy and demure. Whiah— shadow—rumble—darkness. The veil is drawn. It is another tun nel. Light again, and tbe young m looks happier than ever. The bride’s cheek disports a gentle blush—a mod est, experienced blush, discoverable only to tbo initiated and envious. No perplexity, no anxiety now. The rev elation has been tested and found success. There sre many tunnels, bnt not enough. If the whole line were a tunnel tho bride and groom would not care how slow the train proceeded, The man who has not lived to bleaa the builder of tunnels does not know wbat happiness Is. He is bat little above thebrato which never troubled the Creator for passing clouds over the moon on prayer meeting night. But onr bridegroom was not one of these parties, lie appreciated all the bias tings which man and nature had be stowed upon him. Ho did not miss a tunnel. But all things must have an end Daylight always comes to the newly married. Strawberries and cream most be paid for at the caabier’a desk, Within the bliufnl cucumber hides a microbe. Our young husband goes for _ drink of water. While on this rand hit eager eye catches the sign ot another tunnel. Of coarse he fears his birdie will be sore afraid if left tlone in the darkness, and he hastens to her side. Quick are bis feet, bnt faster moves tbe train. Darkness gath ers while he Is yet a balf-a-dozcn seats away. But tbe brave man does not falter. He gropes along; he reaches the seat (or thinks he does), and slides into it.
